Title: New to me Lloyd Pendleton Drop Point
Post by: Tyler C. Moore on June 21, 2011, 03:58:00 PM
This baby has been in out shop ( I work in an archery and knife shop) for nearly a year and it was love at first sight. I decided to take it home finally as I am expecting a new Zipper ZSR riser, Longbow limbs in bocote, zebrawood, and curly maple in september. This might just be its perfect little companion.

I believe it is Lloyds Drop Point model, with fossilized mammoth scales. It is perfect in every way. The feel, the fit, and the quality. I consider him one of the best out there, and I have felt blades from many makers.

That sure looks nice-I really like mammoth scales and those look good.

That is a great looking knife. Should be the perfect compliment to your new Zipper!

Lloyd Pendleton is criminally underappreciated. Every example of his work I have seen is precise and well designed. Congratulations on getting one of his hand made pieces as they are hard to come by. The Cold Steel Custom Classic is a well executed reproduction of his work if you are a fan.
