Here are the results of a few hours work with a Reese Bose Wharncliffe Trapper. A great tool in the hands of a skilled craftsman can really produce great work. Thanks to George Strunk (professional carver of decoys) who has put this great knife to good use.

Thanks George for the Photo from his shop in N.J...

I reduced and posted it for him at his request.

You have to check out some of his finished work at:

http://www.bee.net/gstrunk/ . When I first saw his work, I almost fell off my chair. George, your work is nothing short of amazing !!!

I am proud to be the dealer to provide you with that terrific Reese Bose knife.

This is true artistry in action!!!!

Thanks Bob for the post and knife. I've wanted a wharncliff trapper by Tony or Reese for a while. I put it to work the day I got it. The fit and finish is perfect. I don't know how many people really use Bose knifes but this one will get a workout. This one rides in my front pocket with my truck keys.( sorry Bob I know that hurts)

I saw that was recently sold on Bob's site. I had my eye on it for a while and then saw a BackPocket #3 that my money went for first. Looks like that trapper went to a great home! That duck head looks great too!

In my opinion the wharncliffe trapper is a great EDC knife. I have had a Bose knife in my pocket for the last 14 years. I don't leave home without it. Oh, I also carry a back Pocket knife.
