Bob Loveless & Barry Wood Custom Knife

Riverside, CA

Comments: During 1973 Bob Loveless entered into a brief collaboration with Venice California folding knife maker Barry Wood. That short-lived collaboration produced a grand total of 36 very interesting folders with blades ground by Steve Johnson and the balance of the knives made and assembled in Venice CA by Barry Wood.

Wood's ingenious design allowed the entire blade to fold into the frame for safe keeping, and when pared with the classic Loveless Utility Blade collectors couldn't get enough. Unfortunately Bob and Barry had a falling out, and these 36 special folders were the beginning and the end of the Loveless-Wood partnership.

As you can imagine these knives are extremely collectible and rarely come to market.

And this is the first one we've seen for sale in years.

Don't miss out on this remarkable and unique Loveless collaboration.
