Loveless Drop Hunter Knife circa 1974.
Loveless produced very few knives with brass guards. This one has a brass guard and brass and stainless hardware. It also use what was a premium order in burgundy micarta scales. While Bob did have a few people assisting him in the shop at that time, this knife was personally ground by Loveless. This was a special order and is a one of a kind.
I flew all the way to the Blade Show to have it looked at the Loveless booth, and all the above confirmed: it's a very rare knife and I was told Bob generally only did brass guards as custom orders, so it's one of a kind knife.
The knife is mint condition: never used, never carried, never sharpened. With matching and numbered sheath.
Shop number is # 1184
$6,200.00 shipped and insured CONUS.
Price Drop: $5,990.00 shipped and insured CONUS.
