That was several years ago at the knife show in Atlanta. I picked up the knife from Mr. Bose (I had previously ordered) and there was a man engraving knives on a bench at the show. I waited a loooong time and waited to see him engraving several knives before I decided to give him mine. I figured that it was a once in a lifetime opportunity. I'm happy with the work, although I think I'd rather have the knife in its original shape. Oh, well...
