Summer stretches on into Winter here in North Florida.

The gnarled old rose bush outside my shop door offered one last bloom before last night's first freeze.


A year and a half ago, Tommy made me this Ivory Frontpocket. I've carried it every day since.

The blade's got a few freckles. I really should clean it better after those apples, but it's thin as a whisker, and sharper than a serpent's tooth.


The last rose of Summer. Thanks, Tommy.

Beautiful folder. And with a bullock shield no less! :)

Kind regards,

Tommy does excellent work I have had the privilage of taking classes from him ,his fit and finish is second to none, and he does like to make those blades thin but man are they sharp.

VERY nice John. Tommy makes awesome knives.

I couldn't resist a nice worm grooved bone folder he had on his table at Blade a couple of years ago. Missed out on an ivory one but the bone is quite nice.

Happy Holidays to all,
Peter

Beautiful picture and words John.

I share your sentiments about Tommy's folders, I have one in my front pocket now :)
 
A well done custom slip joint for the pocket is a thing of beauty! The rose in nice too, John.

I do enjoy my T.Bose pocket knives. Have one in my pocket right now. :)
 
Tommy makes an excellent folder and is a great person.

I carried this knife to a Christmas dinner Friday night. The knife has amber stag & CPM154 blade.

Every part is this knife is perfect. The feel and look of the stag, the shape of the blade, the subtle grooves in the bolster, the domed pins. I love this knife.
