Knives you want but can't obtain.

Before he passed away, Mr Tony Bose was going to build me a wharncliff trapper in his own hand jigged and dyed bone. I had the pleasure of getting to know him in the last couple of years and he offered. Even if I happen to come across one some day, it still won’t be the same not made by him just for me.
 
A Rough Rider 659, stag copperhead. Would think it wouldn't be too difficult but haven't run into one for a while now. Be nice to have one for my stag collection in those....And another to carry. :)
 
I have wanted one of the older Combat Elite Level 4 framelocks with the flamed titanium finish. I have missed a couple over the years on the auction sites and one was just a couple months back. There were a couple different variations with that finish. Combat Elite Level 4 knife 7.jpgCombat Elite Level 4 knife.jpg

One of the Ferrum Forge Maker's Choice Stingers in SM-100... that doesn't stick occasionally when deploying. Not sure if such a thing even exists.
 
This would be one of my long time desired Microtech Whalesharks...
I'd buy it used, no particular preference of the model as long as it looks decent and doesn't cost me a mortgage payment.
Love the geomerty and the visual of it, IMO very good looking knife, almost art.
.................
PS: Im sory, getting old l guess, didnt see that l already posted about it earlier in the thread

Wolverine666 Wolverine666 wasn’t interested as he was looking for a manual with stonewashed blade. The one that is left is serrated though.

Aitor Bushi skinner. It's not fancy or costly but impossible to find. Either someone is hoarding 100 of them or they only made 3. There's an Aitor skinner on eBay but it's their lower model with a SYCKO-style handle and it looks crappy. I'd like another Aitor Bushi Scout too so I'm not so afraid to use/lose the one I have.
 
The way it works with my guy from the Bay is you contact him and he’ll order it from the company.
I think no gimmicks, my knife is legit as far as l can tell, you’ve all seen pictures of it an someone would recognize if it 3as knock off.
The one I purchased first was manual, l believe stonewashed. I’ll know when l get to the knife at home in a little bit. I’ll be happy to relay the contact if he want to.

I feel you, SVT.

Once upon a time, I sent Mr.Bose a message on BF telling him how pleased I was with one of his Case collabs. No questions or request for reply, just a thanks and an expression of appreciation. Figured my message was going off into the void; just imagine my surprise when he responded personally, which (in my opinion) is not the kind of thing one does with an eye-roll and heavy sigh. The man truly loved knives and the people who shared the passion.

And it wasn't just about the knives, was it? Hard to think of a better example of a decent human being. May he live forever through those who remember him.

A saber grind BK16 is impossible to find, and I would buy one on the spot if I ever found another one.

I have a few knives that I want but I just simply have never been able to find them.
1) CKF Decepticon
2) ZT 0801CF copperhead
3) CF inlay Sebenza 21 and inkosi

It's truly frustrating but I guess that's the name of the game in the knife world.
