Comments: At this point what can more can you say about Bob Loveless, that he is the most influential living knife maker, that he is a living legend and more - yes, but even more importantly, Bob is one hell of a knife maker! Here is a classic double-edged Boot knife . Made in Lawndale CA, it sports a nickel-silver guard and those famous brass handle rivets along with original leather sheath.
This is a famous and important Loveless for two reasons. First it is pictured in a two page spread in the Al Williams book "Lengends of the Loveless Logo", and second it is the only Loveless we've seen in a long time with this type of exposed thong hole.
Lawndale knives are generally more expensive than Riverside knives all things like logos and handle material being equal. This is probably because many Lawndale knives were made before Bob had a helper in his shop - which means they may be100% Bob Loveless work! Own these knives and own a piece of a true legend. No serious modern custom knife collection is complete without at least one of Bob's knives.
