I've been making knives on and off since 2004 and still have quite a way to go. Here's some recent work.

The one at the top left is Bob's "Field and Stream" model that was the first Loveless I made, along with my first sheath (first mirror polish too) and ground from ATS-34.

The second knife at the top right is Bob's "Dropped Hunter" design, and the second Loveless knife I made (third sheath) and ground from ATS-34.

The third one in the bottom left is another rendition of the "Dropped Hunter" made from S30V with a handrubbed finish and my fourth sheath.

Lastly the kitchen knife was inspired by one that was made by George Herron, on which I stuck a Loveless handle. It is ground from 1/8" 440C with an edge thickness of 0.007" and a tang that tapers down to 1mm.

Thanks to everyone who has helped me along over the years, you guys know who you are. I really appreciate it. Thank you. :thumbup:

Here are the pictures, enjoy! :)

I think you have captured the Loveless flavor very well. I like the second one the best. Really nice knives.
 
Lookin' good Marcus

I realy like the Field and Stream.

Keep up the good work and be sure to let us see some more in the future.

Take care

Thanks for all the feedback!

Hey Charles, your advice in regards to the belts really helped out. I really appreciate it! Thank you. :thumbup:

Hi Keith, the guard on the "Field and Stream" is the only nickel-silver one. The rest are brass. Someday when I can afford it, I plan on buying a larger mill so I can mill stainless -but for now it's me, my sherline and brass/ nickel-silver on occasion. :)
