Hello to all. Here is a knife that I finished last week. I made it following a Tony Bose pattern. Here is a knife that I finished last week. The knife is was made using a Tony Bose wharncliff trapper pattern.

This knife is 3 5/8'' closed, has blades and springs of CPM 154, 410 stainless steel integral liners, pinned shield, hand rubbed blades, washers in pivot area instead of mill relived liners for a cleaner inside look. The action on this knife is really nice and is about a 6 on a scale of 1 to 10 on the pull, there is zero side to side play on the blades, and the action is very positive in all positions. The spine on this knife is really nice, tight, clean and flush in all positions. The handles are pre ban elephant ivory and the bolsters have been fluted for added elegance on this knife.

This knife is no longer for sale.

Thanks for looking.
 
Very nice work all over and a great photo as well. Thanks for sharing it.
Cheers Keith
 
Very nice traditional folder!

The fluted bolsters are a very nice detail!:thumbup:

Kind regards,

Love this pattern, especially it's made by you.
Ivory, bolster and blades are blended nicely. A very well package.
 
Here is a shadow zulo spear lock back. This knife measures 4 1/8" closed with a blade, spring and lock bar of CPM 154, pivot bushing, double pinned shield and a lanyard tube. This knife is made in a shadow pattern inspired by the work of Jared Oeser. The handle on this knife is composed of an orange G10 spacer with black paper micarta for the front bolsters and lighting strike carbon fiber. The colors really compliment each others. The knife has a great lock up and an ultra smooth action and makes for a great every day carry knife. This knife is priced at $800 however it is no longer available for sale but I am taking orders.

 
Beautiful work. I had no idea you made these types of knives. Very impressive.

The orange liners on that lockback look superb.
 
Both are beautiful but I can't keep myself from coming back to look at the trapper. Very clean! Thanks for sharing it here.

As some one who knows Jared and owns one of his slipjoint knives, it is so cool to see established makers giving him advice, and sharing patterns.

As soon as I saw that lock back, I thought it was fantastic to see you making something with inspiration from Jared's work. I know he got that pattern from you.

I can say that seeing a lot of pictures of your work (especially the jigging you do on bone), really drew me into Slip Joint knives again (after not owning one for 25 years or so!)
