Ken Erickson 3 1/2 Barlow pattern This one is SOLD

I made this two blade Barlow up with a spear blade and pen and scaled it in a pretty nice piece of MOP. My pictures do not do the pearl justice. Guess I will have to bend Coop's ear on photographing MOP! The pearl is really nice matched pile and mark side. It shows a lot of greens/pinks that my camera does not pick up. I also was shooting for a vintage look and styled this one after a vintage Ulster knife company Barlow pattern as shown in Blade Guide to Knives and their values. Heres the specifications.

$475 including shipping to lower 48 I know its hard to see the beauty of this pearl, If for whatever reason your not happy with the knife I will refund in full along with return shipping.

3 1/2 closed
ATS-34 blades and springs
Flat ground-as ground finish on blades.
Master-spear, secondary blade-pen
410 SS milled and relieved liners and frame/bolsters
Mother of Pearl scales
Long pull on master blade and standard nail pull on pen
half-stops (crisp)
nice walk and talk , 6 to 7

You can pm me, email or say "I'll take it" here.

Thanks for looking and any comments more than welcome!

Ken, that is an exceptional knife. Very lovely. If it was a single blade....it would be coming to South Carolina :)

Hell of a nice job, Ken. Well done! :thumbup:
 
Thanks for the kind comments guys!

Its always interesting making a new pattern and using scale material that I have not used before.

And for sure a going to church/sunday/office knife.
 
Ken,

That knife is stunning. Very clean and the swedge grinds look very sharp and impressive!
 
HI,

I think I was able to capture the colors of the pearl a little better.

Thanks for looking and thanks for all the kind comments on this knife.

HI,

This Gents Barlow is looking for a good home, I will throw in shipping US priority insured to lower 48. Making the total $475 for a multi-blade with MOP.

Thanks to all that have looked at this knife and those that have left comments!

The grinds and swedges are wonderful and there is some nice "fire" going on in the MOP. You're knives keep looking better and better. :thumbup::cool:

Hello Folks,

I wanted this wonderful sharp pocket jewel so much I could taste her.. However, it appears it just wasn't meant to be this time around, try as I might. One of the sorry ass builder's my company contracts with missed a very important Bonus payment recently, and refuses to make it right..:mad:

I have emailed Ken already and let him know the current situation, I won't be able to purchase this particular beauty at this time,, but, as soon as funds become available I will order one just like this sweetheart here! And that's a fact.

Sorry I held her up for the rest of y'all that were interested.

All the Best,

Anthony
