Great shot!
Got there pretty quick!!Many thanks to Waynorth for helping us Canadians out! The Barlow has always been my initial draw towards traditionals, and this 86 pattern is like a man's size Barlow!

From Titusville to Âchillepattada near Paris and then to its home in Reykjavik surely takes some time but today I could finally pick it up. All worth the wait though, this knife is a real stunner - and as my first BF knife too I couldn't be more pleased!

Thanks towaynorth and
Âchillepattada for all the efforts.
Thank you, Will. I do feel like I lucked out with the 68 stag. It has a considerable about of blade rub, which I think is abnormal, but the stag is outstanding. I gave both of these knives a fresh edge last night (along with a micarta 86 barlow) and they both a feeling fine and fancy free. The fancy bolsters and comparative clips do go together nicely.JTB_5 Really satisfying composition there Joshua. Have to say that your Stag WO is the only one I've seen that has decent antler on it, most seem very lacklustre in comparison . I'm impatiently awaiting delivery of a bone WO, but it will take weeks, they do make a fine pairing with the current Forum Knife.
Thanks, Will
