$1500 - BOB LUM custom handmade deluxe dagger. A work of art, and one of a kind. Pick it up and you want it. This is a built to order dagger with a unique, waisted (leaf-shaped) blade, and Bob’s trademark diamond-shaped armor-piercing point. Deluxe stag handles over a tapered tang with red liners. Exquisite design, balance, and finish. Full coverage, inside-the-boot (or inside your sock) leather sheath. Overall length is 7¼ inches.
Bob’s untimely demise has made his work difficult to find. Don’t confuse this knife, which is a handmade custom-ordered knife, with the common stuff that his name has been put on in the years since his death. For decades, mass-producers have imitated his designs on their factory assembly lines. Some of the makers who used Mr. Lum’s name after his death are Spyderco, Seki-Cut, Benchmade, and Schrade. A Lum knife with those names on it wasn’t made by Bob Lum
$1500 is a bargain price; it's less than half what comparable Lums have sold for recently. (Google "Arizona Custom Knives" and search closed sales of Mr. Lum's knives. They recently sold a similar knife for $5000.00.)
