Another Unauthorized Copy

A reader sent me some Lum style knives to identify, and they turned out to be based on the Seki-Cut Encounter that Bob designed. The company involved is Explorer and the model indicated on the box is labeled "Rogue V Razor". As always, the best way to stop theft of intellectual property is to not buy them.

Seki Cut's Tribute Page

Just recently found out that Seki-Cut has created a tribute page to Bob. You'll find information on the models that Bob designed for them. What is especially appealing is the original sketches used in some of the photos. Link is: http://www.japaneseknifedirect.com/BobLumDesign.htm The Encounter is based on his Folding Stalker model. The fixed blade models are all new designs specifically commissioned by Seki-Cut. I've found the small Fixed Encounter to be an excellent steak knife. 8-) Overall, Bob was very happy with the results.
