EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

Purchased new (I believe retailer won a lottery?) in 2014 upon a career milestone.
My understanding is a favored customer requested a "saddlehorn blade and backpocket frame". I believe they called this a "Saddleback". This one is stamped "0". Ebony.
I'm getting ready to turn 64 years old and when I was young all I saw were "traditional" folding knives.
Wanted it to be a user to really get enjoyment of it, so as soon as I received it I went outside and started whittling, lol.
I know many want(ed) a T Bose folder and keep it pristine due to relative rarity and superb craftsmanship.
I can certainly understand that. But I wanted to really enjoy it for what it was meant to be.
To my eyes, when received it was a close to perfection as anything I've ever seen, held, used from 2 human hands.
Check out YouTube of Mr Bose making one of his knives. Amazing.
Sad thing is I'll enjoy this as long as I'm living. But, I don't have family/friend to pass it down to that will really appreciate it.
Best regards and God bless.

I'm in a similar boat. You can add that knife to your will and pass it on to someone other than a relative or to some organization who can raffle it off for a good cause. May that be many years from now! I'm happy to see one being used and I'm sure Mr. Bose is looking down happy to see you using it.
