Buffalo Bolsters

 

[Jiki]

It would be more accurate to call it the Bill, or the Howard!!

We are using green dye that is actually red to make brown covers, accuracy is not a priority here.

The steel is GEC's well tempered 1095 carbon steel!
This 86 Barlow's bolster needs a name!!View attachment 1589749
Since the famous Washington Bolster was named after the street where it was "born", and this BF will be born on E. Spring street, maybe it should be called the "Spring" bolster?? What say you??

That would be fitting, but it needs 2 or more syllables to sound authentic, IMHO. “Titusville”, or perhaps “Church Run” (the small tributary near by), or “Oil Creek”.

Buffalo Bolsters

They’re the buff-a-low bol-sters… made in the heart of A-mer-i-ca…
(We already have the theme song!)

Church Run

Oh, I like that one.

How about a narwhale bolster?

The blade tang stamp will have a plain Bladeforums stamp - no dots/stars.
I have mentioned this before, I can't remember where! The year will be in the model number on the pile side of course! Clip blade, crescent pull, brass liners and pins in the handles. "Wow" bolster!!

Thanks Charlie, evidently I simply missed it in one of your prior threads. OH

I think you need a passport to visit Texas and don't forget to have all of your shots up to date.

well, yeah.... I thought everyone knew that.

the quote goes "Texas is like a whole other country".... or, if you're from Texas, it's " a whole 'nother country"

 

[hornetguy]

Great pattern, I’ve got 5 of them. Have you ever considered a blade delete for one of them? Had one done on my tortoise, best thing I ever did. One of my absolute favorite carries now.

Cool SAK! I think the 66 in OD green wound be a fantastic carry!

sounds better than the lined rat tail bolster...

Many Thanks

I love the idea of the bolster/overall knife getting its own name. Spring, Spring Street, Church Run, Oil Creek--they all sound great. I'd lean a little toward Church Run over Oil Creek, only because we have Oily Creek Bone covers in GEC's catalog. Keep it more unique.

Yeah i like to say i have dual citizenship. United States and Texas

Sorry Charlie, but the Washington Works in Sheffield was actually on Wellington Street. There is a Washington Street in the city, but it's a residential suburban street on the other side of town

 

[waynorth]

Sorry Charlie!

Doh!!!
At least you are sitting on my right shoulder, Jack!!

 

[Snoopy1]

Perfect! Thanks Charlie this one will be Beautiful

 

[Jack Black]

Doh!!!

Edit - Just need to correct myself Charlie, it's actually Washington ROAD in Sheffield! There is no Washington Street! I did manage to find a Washington Street in Leeds though

 

[waynorth]

the Washington Works in Sheffield was actually on Wellington Street

Did the I*XL Washington Works produce boots also, on Wellington Road??

 

[mbkr]

That's silly. Barlows don't have shields.

Except when they do
