I would like to thank Tony Bose's friend, Kerry Hampton, for taking the time to make all these pictures. Also, a very big thank you for allowing them to be posted here.
Tony tells me Kerry is a "budding knifemaker" and that he, Tony, was impressed with the job he did on his first folder.
Regards,
Rhett

I have looked these pictures over and they are well done. If Kerry is as good at making knives as he is taking pictures then we have some good stuff to look forward to.

Tony just got this back from the engraver, Joe Mason. This is the knife in the BP Construction Series. This is the first knife that Tony has had engraved and Joe's work is top notch. It's goin to the Blade Show.
