Tony Bose - R.I.P.
He brought some fame to that Zulu Spear blade - which I believe Case calls its Tribal Spear!!!??

A few years ago I attended a Case event at Eddyville, Kentucky. Tony was there along with Ida Reed. One thing I was specifically looking for was a Tribal Lock with pocket worn whiskey bone covers and CV steel, which I was able to find. I got in the "meet and greet" line and asked Tony to autograph the box. He talked a little about the design and mentioned that someone else (Remington, maybe?) had trademarked the name Zulu Spear, which is why Case called it a Tribal Spear. UPDATE: Correction from waynorth waynorth (see below). It was Schrade, not Remington.
