I tried searching for a recent thread, but 2019 was the latest I could find, so I'm starting a new one.

It may not be the most iconic Tony Bose pattern, but it is my favorite. I love the zulu spear. It has everything I love in a blade--a really ergonomic tip, a killer swedge, and a beautiful harmony between the spear shape and the drop point shape. The handle shape complements the blade so nicely, too. It's a great user and a beautiful looker.
I've noticed that Zulu designs are pretty wide-ranging today as well. Some look sort of chunky, while others have a more elongated profile. I was fortunate enough to land a Ritchie Zulu that he did a lotto on earlier this week. I'm so stoked to have a high quality example of this high quality pattern. Show'em if you got'em!
