Bob Lum Handmade Dagger

[lum&abner]

My favorite knife is this Bob Lum deluxe dagger with a "leaf shaped" (waisted) blade. The balance is so good that every time I pick it up, I want to throw it.

I'm always glad to learn more about Lum knives from other collectors so all comments are welcome.

The blade tip is Mr. Lum's trademark Diamond Cross-Sectioned Armour-Piercing Tip, but I'm afraid my photos don't do it justice.

If you follow this link to the "daggers" page at the website "Forest of a Hundred Lums" there are better pictures of the special tip, and an explanation.

Can you show a closeup of your knife's tip? Thx!

Pictures of some Bob Lum features: the penetrating tip, the red lining under the slabs of staghorn, and the flat rib on the side of the blade
