True and well said Ron. Your horn lambsfoot is swoon worthy my friend.It just stands as a fine example of the skill level this young cutler has attained. I might add Jack, that it is certainly due in no small way to you and the Guardians editions you have commissioned. All this has helped to insure a profitable business future for Wright’s and many more fine knives for all of us who love the pattern!
Thank you Jack.Thanks Dwight, beautiful pic of your AC
Thank you Harvey. Beautiful atmospheric image of a very nice neighborhood...Fodderwing a nice match up of the Stag with the rock, Dwight
Gorgeous pic of your new barlow.Just turned up in the mail this morning. What a superb knife! These Hartshead Barlow's are something else. Love the Script on the bolster, so olde worlde looking. The complete knife is a joy to look at. Thank you Jack for getting Arthur Wright & Sons to make these specials!

WOW! That is certainly stunning! Beautiful workmanship - I know that you are very proud to have it in your pocket.Strangely, I have found that Sheffield cutlers rarely seem to carry a pocket knife. That was true of the young cutler who made our Hartshead Barlows until recently. He liked the pattern so much, he decided he wanted one for himself. I not only like the idea he wanted one of our knives to carry, but that it is almost certainly the first knife he has made with steel liners and bolsters (Wright's ordinarily using brass and nickel silver respectively). He decided he wanted to fancy his Barlow up a bit with a file-worked back-spring and coined liners, and he made one for me too, which he presented me as a gift![]()

Giving some time to the ironwood. Three beautiful knives, but I think the Barlow will surpass them all.Prester John - So Vince, which one did you choose to carry while you wait for your new barlow?
Me, too, Taylor; me, too!In my last training with my department. Only 4 more days left with the Probation Department!....no Lambsfoot in my pocket today though. But I want to say I hope everyone is having a fantastic Tuesday. Hoping for a Hartshead Barlow waiting for me when I get home!
It is, now that you mention it, Harvey.dc50 I love the many appearances of your Ebony Lamb in the different, colorful backgrounds. It’s kind of like Zelig

That is truly a beautiful Barlow Jack! Absolutely killer stag my friend! It is flattering that he would choose one to drop into his own pocket. It just stands as a fine example of the skill level this young cutler has attained. I might add Jack, that it is certainly due in no small way to you and the Guardians editions you have commissioned. All this has helped to insure a profitable business future for Wright’s and many more fine knives for all of us who love the pattern!
My Barlow’s are somewhere between Queens New York and SE Tennessee. Hopefully they will arrive in a couple of days! Until they do luckily I have a few more to enjoy! Y’all have a great day!

Good day, folks.
I've been enjoying seeing everyone's Hartsheads as they arrive. Makes the wait all the more agonizing, yet I know that the delivery will be all the sweeter.
In the meantime, I'm carrying this ol' thing today.
