Do you have pics of a custom barlow you want to share? I've been looking at my 15s and 77s, all spear point barlows with swedges and long pulls. I don't have the pic, but I remember seeing a barlow from Tony Bose with a spear main, swedge, long pull and maybe a sheepsfoot secondary blade? Pen blade size. Anyway, it was perfect. I wish I had the $ for it. If you have any custom barlows, any blade styles etc, please share them. Customs only.
 
Tony bose and kerry hampton made those I like the ones with the stamped Wilfred Works stamp.
 
I had J. Oeser draw up a grandad Barlow pattern with spear main, but change my mind and went with an XL Gunstock.

Maybe I'll have to hit him up for the Barlow if I ever get the funds scraped together.
 
Charlie posted these ones in the barlow thread not too long ago.

The Barlow, both in general, and in many particulars, is a gorgeous knife!

This one by Keith Johnson is what inspired me to request a spot in his order book:

Barlow-Knife-Medium-Custom.jpg


The knife is not owned by me and I will remove the photo upon request.
 
These have been posted around before but seriously, why not take another look....

I wonder if Esnyx would consider emulating an older bolster style on a new Barlow, such as:



That Cat's bolster is not terribly far from the Esnyx Barlows I've seen. It just has a lot more miles on it. :D

Fantastic customs, everybody, keep 'em coming! This Barlow fan is drooling with envy. :p
 
Some of Esynx's fine work:

a custom gunstock barlow along with a couple built on gec blades-
