A fellow multi foranaut mentioned this in passing yesterday.

While not on my radar until about 1969, Bob had been making knives for as long as I have been around.

A mentor and influence to many in the knife world.

Fittings and styles quite often immediately associated with his work and influences.

Not just a legend in his own time but style that will last forever.

That is sad news. I had not seen his work until now but he made some very amazing knives. His ivory fighting knife is beautiful.

I once owned a fairly large collection of Loveless knives. Over the many years of owning them, they kept and increased their value. The man made and designed great products. Such a shame that he's gone.
