Just Received ~ Direct from the Maker
This is a very special knife from James ~ a Direct Copy of the Original Loveless “JR Bear” Fighter with beautiful Ironwood Handles.
Due to the Mirror Polished Surfaces of this fine blade, it was very difficult for me to photograph – please excuse any Shading or Reflections in the pictures, the knife is impeccable in person.
- .220 Thick – CPM154 Steel
- Double Edged Fighter Style Blade
- RARE Double Guard Fighter Style Full Grip handle
- Fully Tapered Tang, Red Liners and a Lined Thong Hole
- Impeccable Mirror Polished Finish
- Wonderful Silver Soldering job
- Custom Leather Sheath
No detail is out of place on this knife: Note the Dual Finger / Fighter Style Guards ~ even the Silver Soldering of the Tang to the Blade (which most Makers do not even attempt any more) is flawless.
The Tang is Steeply Tapered to reduce weight. The thin Red Liners are a subtle touch and help to accent the Ironwood.
The blade is Double Edged (sharpened on the Top Swedge). The handles are perfectly matched and have a wonderfully rich color.
The entire knife has an Extremely High Fit and Finish. This is a fitting tribute to one of the Great Masters of Custom Knife Making.
Don’t miss out!
James Hand Stitches every Leather Sheath that he makes for his knives.
I cannot say enough good things about James and and his work.
