Is it a Custom??

How about "a little something that Tony Bose put together".

That is Special, regardless. If that was mine, my smile would be so big my face would break.

Congrats!

Rhett gave me several blades , old factory blades, so I took one of them and built a knife around it. That's an original Napanoch saddlehorn blade. The original name for that knife was an Arkansas hunter. I jigged and dyed the bone to fit this knife. I stamped my name inside the liners so nobody would think I was trying to counterfeit the knife I did this to give Rhett something back for being kind to me. Hope this helps.

I would call it a custom Charlie. Tony built the whole knife around a single blade and man are you lucky to have it.

Thanks for the explanation Tony. It's such a great knife and I am glad that it's in the deserving hands that it is now.

Very nice of Tony to give us the details of this interesting knife with a great story and history. I am glad it ended up in the hands of another knife collector/lover/historian/etc. who undoubtedly appreciates it.

I can't think of anyone I'd rather have that knife than Charlie. It is a dandy. I had a hard time sending it to Rhett when I made it. I was always going to me one for me but never did. Rhett had a 5 gallon bucket full of those saddlehorn blades, wonder what happened to them?
