I went a couple of months without buying a knife and then fell off the wagon big time. Unlike Kerry's posts; this one will not be going to Blade!

Will I use it? Like I told Vince (VCM3) I cut the cheese while holding it so that should count. :D

I appreciate all of the posts and pictures in this part of BF. Thanks
 
That is one beautiful slip joint! If ya gotta fall off the wagon that one is worth falling for!:thumbup: :thumbup:
 
Great looker! Definitely use it! Tony made a statement on here a little while back that he wished everyone who had one of his knives would carry and use it. From what I've seen on here of Tony's knives they call out to be elegant users.
 
Congratulations. That's a fine looking knife.
 
You had mentioned to me that you had not bought any knives in a couple of months. I just knew when you told me that you were scheming for something special. Its a beauty.
 
That is an exceptionally beautiful folder. Congratulations on your fall! :thumbup:

What is the overall length?
 
If you are gonna fall off the wagon..you are doing it in style and in the deep end to boot
Fantastic Knife Mike Congrats!
 
Hey Mike "cutting the cheese" may never be the same again after seeing that knife :D :D

Very nice my friend, I do believe that you fell off the wagon at the perfect spot...:thumbup:

Fewpop, 6 1/4 open.

Rob, ya it took some behind the scenes plotting to get this one without the wife knowing. Shhhhhh.

Ran, the surgery for my donated kidney went well and right now I don't miss it one bit. I've have kids; wonder if I can borrow one of theirs if I need it?
 
I'll give you mine plus my ring finger if you need to flip that sweetness in Reese
 
Sunburst, I blame you and Vince for leading me down the Bose path.

Ran, send pics of kidney and detailed drinking history. We'll talk.
 
Real nice one, Mike! I hope you cut more than cheese with it:D !
I see you are in Colorado; did Bob Glassman have anything to do with your purchase; like maybe taking your kidney off your- - - errr, hands:eek: ?

Don't mean to be picky but Reese, Tony's son, made that one. But as they say, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, and I bet that knife will cut an apple real good. Thanks for posting that one here Mike.
 
Mike, that is sweet! Well worth waiting for, in fact, I have her cousin right here.

Congrats Mike.

I don't think the Bose guys could make a bad knife (either in looks or function) if they wanted to!
 
Win, I think you should send yours to me so they can have a family reunion.:rolleyes: I really like the bone on yours.

Gus, You'll probably win another Bose drawing at Blade this year.
 
In the couple of years that I have been into custom slipjoints,
it is rare that I have seen a Bose knife in ivory.

I can certainly understand falling off the wagon for this one.
