Bastards Knives Lobo – Born from a Secret Contract, Made for the Bastards Family
Some knives start out on a designer’s workbench. Others are born from a task that leaves no room for compromise. The Bastards Knives Lobo definitely belongs in the second category. Its story began with an order for 130 daggers for a military special operations unit whose identity cannot be disclosed. A project that was meant to remain behind the scenes – until we finally had the finished result in our hands.
When we saw the completed Lobo, we quickly realized that this dagger was far too special to disappear into the shadows as just another classified project. We loved it. Our Bastards family loved it, too. So we made a decision: we weren’t going to keep this piece to ourselves. Instead, we wanted to share it with you.
Of the 130 daggers originally commissioned, 70 pieces will be available exclusively to our community. This is no ordinary production project. It is a knife with a genuine story, a distinct personality, and the unmistakable spirit of Bastards Knives.
Lobo – Spanish for wolf. A name with a bite.
The wolf stands for instinct, strength, unity, and the ability to find its way through demanding terrain. These qualities are reflected in the Bastards Knives Lobo. Its bold silhouette, asymmetrical blade grind, and purpose-driven construction give it a distinctive tactical presence.
The Lobo doesn’t need to show off its origins. It carries them within. Inspired by a military contract, developed for a specific purpose, and shaped by the independent character that defines Bastards Knives.
14C28N Steel – Reliable Performance with a Sharp Edge
The 17 cm blade made from 14C28N steel combines practical cutting performance with corrosion resistance suited to demanding outdoor use. This stainless steel is known for its ease of sharpening and balanced edge retention, making it a strong choice for a dagger focused on functionality and dependable performance.
The asymmetrical blade grind is one of the Lobo’s defining features. It gives the blade a distinctive look while emphasizing the technical character of its design.
- 14C28N steel for a balanced combination of cutting performance and corrosion resistance
- 17 cm blade with the commanding proportions of a full-sized dagger
- Asymmetrical blade grind as a distinctive design feature
- Clean, defined lines with a functional tactical aesthetic
The result is a blade that reflects the Lobo’s practical design philosophy and makes the special origins of this project part of its identity.
Micarta Handle – Solid Grip, Authentic Character
Bastards Knives chose Micarta for the handle. This durable material fits the Lobo’s distinctive personality and reinforces its functional approach. Rather than relying on unnecessary decoration, the design focuses on a confident grip, practicality for its intended use, and a clean, understated appearance.
With an overall length of 29.5 cm, the dagger has a commanding presence. Its proportions underline the purposeful construction and make it clear that the Lobo is not designed as an ordinary accessory.
Kydex Sheath with Tec-Lock – Function Down to the Last Detail
A well-designed knife deserves an equally well-considered carry solution. That’s why the Bastards Knives Lobo comes with a Kydex sheath equipped with a Tec-Lock attachment system. The rigid sheath complements the functional design and allows attachment to compatible gear.
The result is a coherent setup: purposeful construction, distinctive design, and a sheath that reinforces the Lobo’s tactical character.
- Kydex sheath for secure storage and blade protection
- Tec-Lock attachment system for compatible gear
- Functional equipment that complements the overall tactical concept
Military Origins. Bastards Soul.
The Lobo is more than a dagger with a bold appearance. Behind it is a real commission that resulted in a knife we liked so much that we decided to share it with our community. That’s what makes this project special: a design originally created for an exclusive contract becomes part of the Bastards story – and now it can become part of yours.
Bastards Knives stands for independent designs, extraordinary ideas, and knives with personality. No watered-down concepts, no interchangeable products, and definitely no ordinary thinking. The Lobo captures this philosophy through its military-inspired functionality, clean lines, and a story that doesn’t need to be made up.
And because we know that truly special pieces shouldn’t be available in unlimited quantities, the release will remain deliberately limited: just 70 examples will be shared exclusively with the Bastards family.
70 Pieces. One Story. Your Lobo.
The Bastards Knives Lobo is designed for collectors, knife enthusiasts, and fans of tactical-inspired designs who appreciate a distinctive origin story and purposeful construction.
With its 17 cm 14C28N steel blade, asymmetrical grind, Micarta handle, and Kydex sheath with Tec-Lock, the Lobo combines a bold appearance with functional equipment.
If you’re looking for a knife that does more than look the part – a knife with a story to tell – this special Bastards project deserves your attention. The Lobo isn’t just another addition to the lineup. It’s a piece of our history that we’re proud to share with you.
