I got mine in my pocket as I type, thanks to 2 Toes.:thumbup: Super knife.
A favorite here. Love the grindage on the main blade !
It's time to re-appreciate how frickin cool it is that Case has embraced this idea of providing a fine, almost completely hand made knife at a decent price. Their continued commitment to their customers, Tony, and preserving cutlery tradition should be applauded. :thumbup:![]()
I have always been a big fan of these "custom collaborations", even when my primary knife acquisitions were from Benchmade and Spyderco. To own a top-end production model designed by a top-level knifemaker was really something.
Of course, these days, my tastes run mostly toward traditinal patterns. And I still get a thrill form carrying a custom multiblade slipjoint--every time I use it.
The fact that now one can buy a "custom collaboration" in a traditional pattern has its own thrill. The Dan Burke knives from Queen and the Tony Bose knives from Case are exceedingly fine. Especially since Tony takes an interest in the production of these knives beyond the adoption of his designs.
While I am happy to give full credit to Case (big deal; I like the company anyway)--Tony deserves an extra nod of the head for his efforts in this matter.
