    AG Russell stocks some Dozier Knives. They also have a nice selection of bowies if "utilitarian" is more along the lines of hacking off limbs.
    Whether you think you can or you can't, you're probably right.

    He's no longer with us.
    There's nothing civil about this war.

    His wife is. She still sends out emails regularly, giving updates.

    There were apparently a lot of his designs that hadn't been made yet and they are looking to make a bunch of them.

    Doesn’t get more classic than a Bob Loveless (style) drop point hunter.

    Lots of folks make Loveless-style hunters. Here’s one.

    Also, there is a lot of phenomenal knife makers out there. I had custom knives made for my dad, brother and nephew out of metal files that my grandfather left me when he passed away.

    I would hunt down an older American made Schrade/Old Timer SharpFinger

    They were made for decades and are excellent knives. Reasonably priced too.

    I've got an old carbon steel Sharpfinger that Fred Perrin owned and gave me as a gift about 20 years ago. He made a nice kydex sheath for it as well.

    OLD

    Under ther tem "Old school" I understand only a wooden handle + classic leather sheath. No micarta handles or black-orange Gerber knives promoted by Bear Grylls (which sucks actually)

    I would also suggest some Kershaw or ESEE knife, but they are not classy-looking.
