Which is THE Bose knife?

[cnas122]

A terrific knife, Kerry, we've missed having you around. Do you ever hear from the nasty man?

BLADE 2010

Well, guess what I happen to be carrying today with my Tennessee Vol shorts. Yea, after I got this LC from Kerry (he sure is an old fella now!), a couple years later I started thinking about a pattern that hadn't been done before. Went back and forth with KnifeHead for a few months and we came up with the Tennessee Jack. It's really not that bulky depending on the type of pants you are wearing (e.g., fine in jeans but sucks in slacks). One think I always did when I had someone make me a knife was have them put a shield on both side....my little hallmark I suppose.

But I would say the BEST Bose knife is my 5-Blade Whittler. However, I'm a little biased

Good to see you around Campbell.

Enjoyed reading through this thread.. my vote goes to the WT though I might be a little biased.

I’ve just recently been exposed to the collab knives. The collection has grown since I picked up my first
These two have demanded the most pocket time - the WT get the slight nod. Maybe someday I will be fortunate enough to own a Wilfred. Really enjoy looking at the artisry of the customs posted up. Best,

I no longer own any Bose knives, but Tony told me the WT was his favorite...and so I continue to take him at his word and believe that's THE Bose knife.

I met him at the first ICCE and he was carrying the rebladed Remington that was the inspiration for the Wilfred. He showed it to me with some pride.

I've never had a "real deal" Tony Bose knife. The closest I've come is this Premium Stockman Collab. It is a very, very, nice knife. I can only imagine what one would be like from the hands of Mr. Bose.

Eureka Jack is the one that comes to mind. It’s the one I have on my “to buy” list.

I agree with Blues WT all day long.

WT was the knife he carried. So, in my opinion, that’s the knife.

Yea, we gotta slide one in there don't we! That goat horn knife is amazing. So glad I got to coon finger it up a bit.

Lol I never could afford one
But I definitely liked the back pocket

I thought he also carried a back pocket ….

WT is so iconic

It looks better now. Just recently back from a Reese spa treatment. It’s as if it were just built yesterday.

He did. And he also said the WT was his favorite... and that the wharncliffe was the most useful blade.

(But of course, he might have told someone else something completely different. Just to keep it interesting. )

He carried a BP as well. WT was his steady in his front pocket. Good for skinnin squirrels. Here’s a cool BP flush joint.

I just got a Wilfred lockback hunter, i am amazed at the overall quality, everything is perfect on it.
