#38658 - 03/16/08 10:57 AM Kudos To Kerry
Blues Knife Enthusiast Registered: 04/13/07 Posts: 84 Loc: Blue Ridge Mtns, NC	I hesitated a little before posting this since, strictly speaking, this isn't a Bose made knife, but it is the next best thing. The knife, made by Kerry Hampton under Tony's tutelage is based upon Tony's "Lanny's Clip" pattern and Tony was kind enough to do the heat treat. So, if you don't mind taking a look, I'll just provide you a link to the images and comments on this little beauty that Kerry was kind enough to build on my behalf: Lanny's Clip by Kerry Hampton Thanks, Kerry! _________________________ Elliott Blues' Knife Pix

Well HOdeedo...what have we here?! I think you'll like it Elliott. Tony is great to allow me to work in his warm and well equipped shop, and ofcourse the breakfast by MamaBose Saturday was nothing to sneeze at. On a full stomach, that Lanny's Clip went together better than any knife I have made to date. It's going to be a dandy user for you I am sure of that. _________________________ KerryNIFE HamptonEAD

Blues Knife Enthusiast Registered: 04/13/07 Posts: 84 Loc: Blue Ridge Mtns, NC	Well, I guess I should count myself lucky that it wasn't one of those Monday or Friday knives. Many thanks to the Bose clan for making sure that your belly was full and you were able to tackle the project head on. Thanks, Kerry. This will be a special knife for sure. _________________________ Elliott Blues' Knife Pix

kdhampton Moderator Bose Forum Registered: 10/03/06 Posts: 525 Loc: Terre Haute, IN	Quote: I love that Kerry! That looks great and I am a big 52100 fan. Brent Cramer Welllll thank you Brent. I really like the way this knife turned out. I am inclined to do more in 52100 because the steel etches so uniformly and dark. The problem is I have only found 52100 in 1/8" thickness, which is fine for the bigger knives like the Lanny's Clip but for the Wharncliffe Trapper I have to have the 1/8" stuff ground down to 3/32". If you know where I can get it in smaller flat ground thicknesses, please let me know. _________________________ KerryNIFE HamptonEAD

MRobuck Knife Enthusiast Registered: 04/02/07 Posts: 151	Since this thread has resurfaced from the depths I thought I would add Kerry's second Lanny's clip in. This one has the "Sheffield" rat tail bolsters across the pins and is the first one that Tony and Kerry have made with the old style rat tails.

Bob_Glassman Knife Enthusiast Registered: 05/14/06 Posts: 213	That is a great looking knife Mike. Kerry, i'll take the one with the bolsters like this one. Stainless or D2 is fine with me.
