A showcase from Jason Taber of River Rat Knives and David Taber/Dr T. (lent by a friend)

-Rag micarta half-whittler by Jason
-Westinghouse Micarta 3.5" Bose style trapper by Jason
-Serpentine trapper in ivory by the good doctor
-Rag Micarta Outsider by the good doctor.

Fantastic builds from both of the Taber family. Just look at how flush and seamless the back end of that Dr. T serpentine whittler is.

A thousand thanks to Tyler to letting me check out these fine knives before my eventual order with Jason.

Tim that Hampton serpentine trapper is very sweet. I think I saw a Bose two blade version a few years ago. It really struck me as a fine pattern.

I agree Jerry Mhm I do have the regular Bose Trapper frame here in the identity of that J.Taber Bose trapper and I must say I do enjoy the serpentine flow.
It follows the natural curvature of your hand nicely. I've seen photos of a Tony Bose Rag micarta version WT (photo below) on google before, a real beauty.

Tim, this is the one I was referencing, but Kerry made it. Owned by my friend Mike Robuck. I had talked to Kerry about making me one several years back. There's also a 3" ivory single clip made by Tony out there.

Thanks! I wasn't sure how it would hold up at first, but it doesn't seem to have any issues and feels very solid.
