YOU ROCK, SWEETIE!:thumbup:Since Blade is coming up and not everyone will be attending, I'm giving away a Case Commemorative Swayback Knife that I recently picked up in Nashville courtesy of Shepard Hills. Its 1 of 150, Caramel Bone, Tru Sharp Steel, engraved with Tony's signature on one side and Ida Reid's on the other. The bolsters and caps are decorated with Ida Reid laser engravings. There is a federal shield on both sides of the knife. Sorry for the bad picture quality. It comes with a Certificate of Authenticity signed by Tony and Ida and Tony even signed the knife box.
Just put up a post and on Thursday before I leave for Blade, I'll randomly draw the number. Of course anyone can draw for this knife, but I'm hoping that everyone who owns a real Bose will defer to those who do not own one of Tony's or Reese's knives. Anyways, good luck. It's basically a nice Case swayback with a little fluff added.

You know what, now that I think about it, life is too short to be stingy. So I'm editing this post to add another knife...so now I am giving away 2 Case/Bose Commemorative Show Knives. The second one (below) is from a 2008 show. Same materials, engravings, etc. as the knife above, but this one is a 2 blade Saddlehorn. So on Thursday, I will draw 2 numbers and give away 2 knives when I return from Blade. Happy Drawing...

Please note that these are not custom Bose knives, nor are they the Case/Bose Collaboration Knives. These are "Show" knives...good quality Case knives with a couple extra tweaks paying homage to Tony and Ida.

I am glad that the knife went to a great guy.
congrats dude. enjoy the knife man.
Thanks for the kind word, but 42b is not a too bad of a dude either. Actually this Trad Forum has some of the best dudes and dudettes around. The only other bunch here that compares IMO is the Makers Forum. I am stoked on getting that little beauty. I have never owned a saddle horn before and am looking forward to carrying that purdy knife.:thumbup: Thanks again for the chance and the knife.
