Gold Bear by Shaw-Leibowitz

[waynorth]

It seems to me there was some discussion about Shaw-Leibowitz enhanced Schrades in threads gone by, but I am a bit search-challenged, and have come up with nothing.
Can anyone tell me anything at all about Bears on Schrades, S-L Schrades, or this knife in particular??

Here's a link to some knives like yours: http://www.kunzandknives.com/shaw_leibowitz_lost_wax.htm
They are not Schrade product, but I thought this may be of some interest...

Thanks Ed. Shaw and Leibowitz are a very talented team!
I wonder when they did the Schrade?? Can anyone add some knowledge??

Leonard Leibowitz and his ex-wife, portrait artist, Sherrill Shaws, joined the Knifemakers Guild in 1971, and worked on knives for 12 years. He did the etchings, she, the original castings.
Sherrill Rae Shaw, died Feb.6, 2015 at age 77. She met Leonard Leibowitz while living in New York City. Together they formed the company Shaw/Leibowitz.
She later married New Yorker William Cullen, a musician and composer. After William passed away, she married Meri "Gene" Noling of Minerva, Ohio.
I haven't been able to find out anything about Leonard Leibowitz.
