Do you know anything about the Queen Abalone Copperhead as far as number produced value etc. I can't seem to find a lot of information on it.

Does anyone know where I might find a Case/Bose collaboration 2004 #01348 Genuine MOP Modified Muskrat. Only 100 were produced and I think it retailed for $569.00 in 2004. Any information would be wonderful and greatly appreciated.

I have no clue about the model in question, but I know the very knowledgeable guys over in the traditionals corner of BF should be able to point you in a proper direction. I would suggest a dedicated information inquiry thread as well as a WTB thread.

Okay thanks. There is a thread in the wanted section of the Case Forum and I check ebay several timesa day and have decided to explore other avenues. I realize this is pretty much like the proverbial needle in a hay stack with only 100 produced.
Anyway I have been searching online this morning for every knife club I can find in the country and talking with someone in hopes that there are some serious collectors in their club who might have one they would part with. If nothing else maybe this would give them something interesting to talk about at their next club meeting.

My new "beer scout" from GEC. It is a custom configuration that was a Frankenstein / aftermarket build.

I think that I've posted these pics before, but they fit the topic here. I have been on the look out for a nice mini-copperhead. I really like the look and size of the copperhead for something to float around in my pocket with my change.

Nice Butter beans especially the Shadow Bone. Please try an 087 Pen instead of a small Copperhead you'll like it a lot better.

You take some very nice pictures Landon. I'm looking forward to seeing what you end up with for your custom. I really like those GEC knives. Some day I'm going to get a #42 Trader LB with Ebony scales. They come out with re runs of popular models every couple years. I had to watch the last ones slip by. Plenty of 42 LB's still but none in Ebony. :)

Have a good thanksgiving.

Nice knife.

Like a Case and Swiss Army knife got together and had a kid.
On my radar: 110V Military, Police 4 and some sweet Rex 45 Military action.

Newest Spydies: S90v Ti Military, Pacific Salt and a special Kiwi.

Joe, a Happy Thanksgiving to you and Finn. I will be sure to keep an eye out for an Ebony 42 LB. Thank you for the compliments on my attempts at photography. It takes alot of work to appear to be even amateur. This was my newest traditional. Planning to possibly get it signed by Harry Gant for my father as a Christmas Gift.
