As close as I will come to a T Bose

I do have a Case collab T Bose, but those are not all that rare.

I have a friend in Indiana who lives near T Bose, and has visited his shop a few times. The last time we were together he gifted me this knife pick.

Thought you might enjoy a new thread with some new picks.

That is cool Tony. Now that is a high faluten pic.

For the benefit of little newbies like me, what exactly is that?

That is pretty cool Tony .. That’s one that personally I don’t know if I would use or save...

ZG - Knife picks like this are used to open blades on a knife when the pull is very strong or your finger nails can’t grasp the nail nick... Knife picks were even made by some old companies 100 or more years ago but not seen too often... I do think there is a member here who collects them if I remember right

Not a TB but a Bulldog opener.

Ah, thanks. Very cool. Now I’ll have to keep an eye out for one. Seems like a handy thing to have.

A genuine Tony Bose knife pick and ATS-34 steel to boot. I'd make it a safe queen for sure.

That is one beautiful knife pick! I have one that is a bit more mundane:an old Remington sleeveboard jack that the pen blade broke at one time.When I got it I ground the tip round and thinned it out a bit.Works great on the toughest knives and the master blade is still serviceable albeit a bit sharpened.

Great idea.
