Peter,
I'll post his info in the lounge. I got some Asian Ironwood from him that made me think of you. It's amazing stuff!

is this Dealer special still in production?

Wally
As far as I know, it is still available, send Rick an email and you can discuss how you want it configured.

Here are two Pink "Ivory" examples in two different iterations of the Bowles' creation.

P.S. If you sell knives with Pink Ivory on eBay don't use Ivory in the description or the auction may be cancelled!

Here are two pair of Rick Bowles 30th Anniversary knives I call "On The Rocks".

Those are beautiful knives Jim.

I just noticed that the Bowles on top (fossil walrus?) has a reduced hilt. I don't recall seeing that on a Bowles Special before. Pretty cool!

Jim, you have some very beautiful knives there - I especially like the Gambler with musk ox.
Very cool

RBS is the most crowded Dealers Special in my collection:
Here's the 25th Anniversary plus a AAAA Thuya burl handle.

Time goes by...and, after his 25th Anniversary, here's the 30th Anniversary pair...just close to be embellished by an Italian engraver!

Rick,

The reduced hilt on both the Gambler and Skinner are a feature of the Bowles' 30th anniversary set. However the single hilt on the FWI Skinner is an anomaly and may be unique.
