Loveless chute knife and Antique stag.

[JamesBro]

There was a recent thread about 400.00 and up prices on a custom Loveless style chute knife.
Among other responses was the info about the wheel sizes uses for the grinds and I appreciate that info as I have never seen or held a Loveless knife. (just pics)
Well here it is, I made it with a 5 inch blade, My 8 inch grind got a little high but what a great challenging design to attempt not to screw up.

Sounds like a plan, it definitely may be the last one. I am more of a sharpie on steel, see which way it goes type. Thank you.
