2025 77 barlows

My 77 arrived today.

Its got a snap like a crocodile with its snout wired shut. 🤪

I dont particulary like richlite,nor the big slogan on the handle:)


But overall I do like it,hooray.😁

Its a good size and weight,the richlite is very grippy,the pen blade is a useful bigger size,the blades are satin.😇

Plus it just feels right in the hand.😎

I have coloured in the handle like a 5 year old with a crayon,flushed then oiled it (no differance) and spread butter and cut an orange. with it.🤭]
















 
How many hemlock jigged bone 77’s are out in the wild? I managed to get one, and I’m considering putting it in rotation (I promised myself I would only purchase knives I would use), but these are almost too pretty to mess up.

I agree, they are fantastic. Yep, that’s the number I was looking for. Thank you.

I was gonna get one of these 77 richlites and color in the “Tidioute Cutlery” with red model paint.

It would look really cool, but I couldn’t land one, and I am a terrible painter so it would have looked messy.

the market has calmed down on those of late, can score a good deal if you keep an eye out

It seems that way, I agree. I may try to buy or trade for one. They came out fantastic and I’d almost hate to use one up! The constant internal battle 😆

That sounds like a cool idea,would model paint take to richlite seeing the users of these look like the white paint gets to fading quick
