Bose Knives

They are very light, incredibly durable, and sharper than sharp! LUCKY DUCK(man) :)
 
First chance I got to really try this moose antler carver. Since its holloween I figured a pumpkin was a good choice.
 
Nice! what's the blade length on that one?

Aw...now! That's just flat cool that you are getting some good use out of your hybrid "Hambose"(Robuck's name for it :) ). Love the pumpkin! Thanks for posting.
 
please, please, please tell me if and where I can pick up a bose whittler/carver.

Thanks!!
Brett
 
That is a cool looking punkin. What is the wood? That Hambose is a sweet little knife with the moose scales and sheath.

I'm a carver too; I make little sticks out of big sticks, but there doesn't seem to be much of a demand for them. :)
 
Mike, Its a piece of white pine. You carve what they call toothpicks and millions are sold every year.
 
KnifeHead is calling for a national day of morning due to the Colts loss to "the team that shall remain nameless"

Let us bow for a moment of silence...

So sad. I was pulling for the Colts all the way, cause last I checked, 2toes wasn't makin no knives.

Nice Photochop Kerry. LOL.
 
Picking between the Colts and Patriots is a little like asking me if I like Bill or Hillary Clinton better, but I was pulling for the Colts because I can't stand Belichick. Good point, Ed.
 
When I work in the US, I work in Baaahston.:D

This game was the highlight of the season, no question.

And even though we won, we didn't make the point spread.
So in my little wager with a fellow forumite, I have to pony up a check--
to the American Cancer Society.
 
WHen the Bose boys or anyone else that makes a BP style knife with thong tubing as the rear pin....how is this tubing flared to keep the dang thing together? I have read the thread on flaring the tubing with ball bearings and screws and nail sets......how do the Bose' do it? Epoxy..doesn't sound to mechanical to me....seems harder to flare than the 3/32 or 1/8" pins in the rest of the slipjoints. Thanks.
 
Tony is using the "screw head method". Don't get that confused with the more well know "---- head method". :D

Epoxy alone is out of the question for a knife that might be sold. It might be a good idea to put some epoxy around the tube and then flare it so that moisture doesn't get in there.

The nice thing about the "screw head method" is that you can gradually tighten things down and rotate the knife to check your progress. There isn't as much control when you are smacking the tube with a set and hammer. One tap too many and you are starting all over with the handle.:o Ofcourse, before starting any procedure, Tony dons a cape and mask which appears to ward off all evil(pronounced EE-ville) and bad things that might go wrong during knifemaking so that NEVER happens to him. :D
 
Oh...forgot to mention that spinning with a flaring tool is also a really nice way of crimping the tube. Oh yea, I have a nice example of a good tube job right here :)

This is a reproduction by Tony of an old Ka-Bar Dogshead Trapper. If you look back in the Ka-Bar thread from a while back you will find the knife that this one is patterned after.

Great looking stag on this knife! It is 4.5" long and has ATS-34 blades and springs.
