Home Forums Gear Knives and Blades loveless copy

i really like the bob loveless drop point knife. can't afford the real deal . i have a berreta jap made copy with a synthetic grip. its a great knife but would like a nicer version. can anyone recomend a knife maker that would build me one that would be under 200$. also i am capable of finishing a knife myself(installing the grips,guards and making the sheath). does anyone also know someone who can provide me with a heatreated knife with the shape i wanted. anyhow any help or guidence will be appreciated.

Geno Denning www.cavemanengineering.com does a great Loveless style knife, for under $200. His list is getting longer, currently about 16 months, but well worth the wait. Best, JB

Just left Geno a message waiting for him to call back.

I'm going to call him to.Very nice!
thanks

thanks! i'll check him out.

I ordered two knives fron geno today one was the GM model and the other was a GM Jr. will be about 16 months as stated.

You will love the GM and Mini GM. I have a Mini GM on order myself. If you haven't seen one shoot me a PM with your email address, they are very cool. Best, JB

I hear good things about GenO...

I agree that Geno is awesome when it comes to knifemaking. His mentor was George Herron and it shows.
A couple of years ago, Geno made me a chute knife and it's still one of the nicest in my collection.

As a side comment, WC Davis also makes nice knives in the Loveless style. Just bought one of his with the green canvas micarta handle and it's a "spittin' image" of a Loveless knife.
