Loveless made AG Russell?

Post by ken98k »

Did Bob Loveless ever make knives for AG Russell?
I was recently watching this auction on ebay. It sold for $280. To me this knife screams Loveless.

They were Loveless inspired but not made by him. I think that line was called the Caper Finn. Those and most of Russell's similarly designed knives were made in Japan at the time.

*EDIT* - Looking at that one though, without the lanyard hole, I'm thinking it might be one of the knives Bill Davis made for them. He was the in-house "custom" maker at the time (1990's). I think they sold for around $195.

I don’t know who made that one, but I surely like it, a lot!

Yep, that certainly looks like the one I posted.
Does it have a tapered tang and Loveless style rivets?
