Bose Knives

Juan, Are they deer your harvesting from a game farm or wild?

Kind'a both. That is, I shoot them at a sugar plantation where they grow wild but unmolested by poachers or other hunters. They live in a relatively confined area so the herd grows rapidly, and they are not too difficult to shoot. As a matter of fact, lately we released two males from a different population in order to avoid inbreeding. By we I mean a friend from school days and myself. His wife's family own the land and we have been fishing and hunting pals since those glory days when a boy could hang around all over with a knife on his belt and a .22 rifle on his shoulder.
 
Those orange scales might hurt a traditionalist's eye but if you're a hunter they are the smart way to go. Try finding one of those darn camouflaged knives in the woods...! ;)

Great knife, congratulations.
 
Juan, That was the whole purpose of having knives made with that material. Hunters really like it as it is easy to locate on the ground.

Depends on the environment. You can find a knife with a camo pattern or a matte black finish pretty easily on the floor of a mall........
:D
 
I stopped in at the fall Northern Lakes Co. knife show in Janesville this last weekend and had the chance to handle a Reese Bose pattern that was very unusual. I wish I had pictures to share but this little knife was as perfectly fit and finished as I have seen!:thumbup:

The pattern was a 3 1/2 ? Congress Jack ! The secondary blade was a small pen complete with extension spring. The master was the normal sheepsfoot.Scales , I think, were jigged and dyed by Reese.

Congrats to Reese on this one!

I did a quick search for pictures of this knife here on the forum and came up empty, I apologize if this knife has been discussed in the past.

I have not shot very many of Reese's knives and a congress jack is pretty doggone rare. I don't think I have a pic of one but if I can round one up I will post it.

This is not a Bose knife, so the moderators can remove the photo if desired.
Is this the pattern? I believe it's a Remington R423 Congress Jack.
