Blade Forums Spring Street Barlow (BF Knife 2021)

Meanwhile in the Grand and Venerable Porchenberg Hall :
I call to order this meeting of the Noble and Honourable Society of Pickiness.
Order!!! OOOOORRRDDDERR!!
We will have order.
Now to the question on the agenda...Is the Waynorth White Bone Barlow a Forum knife?
No it is not.
There you have it.
Voice of heckler in back row (a cross between bugs bunny and an australian horse race caller): nyyeeerwhydonit gedditsownthreadgoin'?

Order.Gentlemen please Orrrderr!
That voice again: gimmeamalibusunsetannabowlawedges.cheers.

Have that person removed and take him to Porchenbergs outer limits.garrumph.

I think you can't say you have the complete set of Blade Forums knives ever made without the 2021 White Bone because you can't say you have the complete set of Nolan Ryan rookie cards without the 1968 Topps Venezuelan card.

That would depend on you being a fan of errrrm baseball is it? Because Im betting my lefty that JB is not a fan ...although he might be looking for a new bat and ball game after the recent Ashes series.... cricket...😇
That voice from the paddywagon going to the outer limits: yeeeerrgeddanewcaptainyapommybas##rds.
Clunking sound like wood hitting a bony hollow skull...silence.

OMG! That's some serious damage, must've been DROPPED from a great height! ;)

Going to take a lot of work with metal-polish, paper, leather strop, why even a ride on the buffer to fix that!:eek:

But, it's only damaged on the Mark side right???

Jesting aside, that's going to age really well, the bone and engraving .

Bill offered me these knives, from leftover parts, probably because of my long association with helping Forum knives along over the years.
The only things that were not left over were the Sawcut Hemlock handles.
Can you imagine the lolly-scramble hell I was in for, if I announced a drop,or a sale etc, of 40 White knives.
I did what I thought was best to get them into qualified hands!
Have any shown up on Ebay yet??? Hopefully they never will, but it's in God's hands now!!
I did not make a huge profit on these knives _ enough to give one away, have one (an "S" model) rehandled in Stag, and one to keep (another "S").
Not all, but most went to "Voters for White Bone"!
Whoever I missed, please accept my apologies! I sent notices to people as their names popped up in my lurking/reading on the forums.
I was hoping there would be no hard feelings, but I see you all want to know the story.
Now it's in your hands!!

You did fine by me to offer those to whoever you liked. The only thing that surprised me was at least one went to one of the most vocal critics of how the BF knife sale went down. I am not naming him, but I don't think he would be offended if I did. Since I have seen posts from those that do have influence over future forum knives that we may never have a forum knife again because of the uproar surrounding this year's knife, I have to admit, it does bother me a bit.

I think we see that every year, don't we? Every year it seems more likely to come true.

Anyone who wasn't critical of how the sale went down wasn't actually paying attention...sorry for not whitewashing that debacle for you.
