I'm looking to trade either one of the below Early Run TC Barlows for a Northfield 77 Barlow in Smooth Autumn Gold Bone - Model 771115 (Clip Point) or Model 772115 (Spear Point).

TC Barlow #1: Antique Amber Saw Cut Bone - Model 152112 (1 of 51)

This TC originally belonged to Big Biscuit. Here is the description he gave of the knife when I acquired it from him. It remains in the same condition as when I received it from Bob.

“I have a single long pull spear in Amber Saw Cut bone. It's in really great shape, but it was a user for me. The knife does come with a TC tube, but it is not the original tube. I did clean up the patina, but there is still a very small amount of evidence it was there. There are no scratches at all on the bolsters, back spring or covers. Even the blade is scratch free”

TC Barlow #2: Rust Red Jig Bone - Model 152213STL (1 of 31)

Bought this on the exchange, it has been lightly carried, sharpened and polished. Seller thought that he might have had the wrong end cap with the tube but I showed the pictures to Charlie C. and he confirmed the knife, tube & cap are 100% correct.

Strange, that's sawcut bone on the knife, but the tang stamp matches the model number.
 
Charlie said that GEC mislabeled them, if you look at the 2013 production totals they only list rust red jig bone. There weren’t any red saw cuts that year. Charlie said it’s 100% correct - can’t get a more expert opinion than that! ;)
