A grandaddy barlow (5 inches in length closed). As far as I can tell the tang stamp is EDWARD / FURNESS / ENGLAND. It has been my understanding that there were no Sheffield barlows of this pattern from this era. No idea if the knife is legitimate or not. It is very tight with good snap. The knife has integral bolsters. I have provided a good number of photos so the experts may have a chance to evaluate it.View attachment 1811112View attachment 1811111View attachment 1811114View attachment 1811113View attachment 1811123View attachment 1811124View attachment 1811122

Everything I see makes me think it is legit Dwight, type of construction, bone, pins, all look to match up to the smaller Furness barlows.

Love the bone handled Schrade pruners Charlie, great examples, a version that continues to elude me.

Great to hear that John! Thank you for weighing in.

Wedged- shaped (typical) punches, just for clarity! You can vary the hole size by the depth of the punch insertion!View attachment 1813743

Charlie is that first knife a schrade harness jack? If so does it have an arched tang stamp? Be good to get a peak at that if possible.

That’s impressive Charlie. Thanks for sharing those pics. To me schrade cuts are among the finest if not the finest knives ever made.

Added another Eureka Jack to the collection, a very nice 3 1/2"ebony Ulster. Knife is close to unused with great etch. Eureka's are one of the toughest patterns to find. Last pic shows it next to my carry GEC Eureka, slightly smaller.

Wow, just wow! Fantastic ebony! Master is crocus on the mark side, glaze on the pile side, pen is glaze on both sides. What a piece of cutlery history!

Looking at the scales up close, I think it might be Madagascar ebony.
