Case Tony Bose damascus offerings

[silenthunterstudios]

Well, sitflyer was very kind and gifted a damascus peanut to me, hold your horses, some pics will come up in a new thread this weekend.

Got me thinking, or lusting, but thinking sounds nicer, about the Case Bose damascus line. Some from the regular lineup, some of the annuals, all presented with damascus blades. Same specs as the regular models. Does anyone know if damascus offerings were done for every pattern? I've seen a few backpockets, some dogleg jacks etc. Were these offered in 50 lot runs? Less, more? I'd like to get a Tribal Spear with damascus, but that is a dream, like my set of CRK folders with damascus and mammoth bone scales. Are these damascus offerings made the same year as the annual knife, or later on?

I would just like a Tribal Spear! and I wouldn't complain if it had Damascus.

I think, at least for the annual collaboration re-runs, there were 100 of each. I believe the below list to be accurate. They were only made recently, in the last couple years, not part of the original run. I picked up a Damascus Slimline Trapper in 2011 and a Muskrat in 2012.

1999 - Slimline Trapper - also in Damascus
2000 - Millenium Trapper - also in Damascus
2001 - Yukon - also in Damascus
2002 - Gardener’s Knife - also in Damascus
2003 - Dog Leg Jack - also in Damascus
2004 - Muskrat - also in Damascus
2005 - Locking Whittler
2006 - Cotton Sampler
2007 - Large Coke Bottle
2008 - Arkansas Hunter - also in Damascus
2009 - Norfolk Whittler
2010 - Tribal Spear
2011 - Coffin Jack
2012 - Lanny's Clip
2013 - Wharncliffe Trapper
2014 - Wharncliffe Lockback Whittler

I wish I knew the answer to your question. But if Case ever comes out with a damascus LC you'll find me at the front of the line.

I have a Case Bose Slimline Trapper in damascus and owned a Gardener's knife as well. Pretty decent knives.

I guess I didn't take a pic of the blades while closed but hope this helps too

From what I've read on a website selling them, they are Special Factory Orders.

So I'm guessing the only place you can get new ones is a [Reference to Non BF Dealer]?

They are not the only company offering them, there's also a Damascus lock back whittler and cotton sampler for pre order.
