Let's see your Charlie SFOs

Due to my parents health my wife and I moved in with them around a year ago. Due to the close proximity they have become accustom to the constant knife talk and graciously listen as I show them different patterns. I think they enjoy it to be honest. Though, they do find it odd that I take pics of them.

I was visiting Barry's site, when he had several listed, and I had saved one to my favorites list. My mom, being sneaky, found it, and purchased her first traditional knife. I was a little bummed when I saw it sold. Yet, knew they would go fast. It was a really great surprise.

Brett, thanks for sharing that. :thumbup: As hard as TC's are to get, your mom did good. A knife to treasure.
 
Jack..I agree with you. I recently found 2 radio knives from Barry that I needed to complete my collection and quickly snatched those up. Keep waiting and looking and they will appear.

Thanks my friend. I'm very happy with the one I have in ebony :)

Paul - My dad, by all accounts should be one as much as he worked with tools, but has never really been. I gave him a tc stews blade a while back that he carries now. With his Parkinsons it is perfect for him. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if loses it. :o

Great story Brett :thumbup:
 
My parents handed me a box tonight at dinner. Inside I found the ebony. I couldn't believe it! It was their way of saying thank you for a few things.
I just picked up the brown sawcut a week or so ago. I thought I would show them off now that I finally have a spey and spear.


Brett....great looking knives and great parents also!
 
That's awesome, Brett! A wonderful gift for a great guy! Good on you, and your parents as well!

Was there ever a TC Barlow run with a Clip Main, Spey Secondary blade configuration? Similar to the #15 Farm Boy?

I reckon so....

Although technically (if not intuitive visually) the spey is the main blade, the clip the secondary-- hence the etch on the spey.

And what an etch it is (possibly my favorite):

Impressive collection, Sarah:thumbup: You have enough to carry a different one each day of the week:D (I've obviously listened to the Beatles' "Eight Days a Week" too often.)

Sarah, what a stunning collection! I had no idea it was so robust. Well done!

It looks like maybe 2 are users, and the others being preserved?
 
Fantastic collection. I would've picked the exact same one to use myself. That one second from the top on the left is called antique amber sawcut, correct?
 
Sarah, I just noticed this pic with jam and butter toast. Isn't the only One True topping in western Pennsylvania scrapple? or is scrapple too abusive to steel? ;):D

Ugh, scrapple... I shudder at the memory of it. :barf:
