Show off your 15's

Oh if I could only get my mail earlier in the day, comes around 5pm here! Primble, that is some gift from a secret admirer. I like how washed out the sea foam green is!

Very nice #15, brother jim!

Thanks Perry - I think he or she wanted me to think soup bone - have no idea of what to do with that tube top ! ;):D:D:D

This is another 15 that arrived today. I paid for this one. It completes my collection of early runs of LP spearpoint TC Barlows. :eek::D

Look what I got in the mail today !!! :confused::confused:

At first I thought I had mistakenly received a soup bone sheep foot TC Barlow from the last run, but, just the wrong tube cap !!! :eek::eek::o:o

Well - at least the tube and knife were correct. ;):D

Somebody playing tricks on me ? :confused::confused::D

This is really cool, Primble! That's the kind of "second" that folks on this thread salivate over. Excuse my drool.

I have that same knife, but mine doesn't look that good! Great photos! Really stunning!

Congratulations, Primble. I've come to appreciate the myriad shades of brown in the TC Barlow spectrum, and this color has become my favorite. What a great knife to finish off this part of your awesome collection!
 
New arrival today!

Funny how middle aged eyes can't see dust and lint until it is on the computer screen.

It is in the teal, sea green family of colors. In this photo it appears more blue, but in real life is more of a dark green. On the Benjamin Moore color wheels, it is Dollar Bill Green. Chrysler calls it Forest Green. Ford calls it Pine Ridge Green. GM just calls it Green. There is no match in the Crayola box, but it is close to Pine Green and Tropical Rain Forest. It is almost exactly Michigan State Green (Pantone 567 C), and would be the perfect color for a Spartans fan. The Pantone color appears to be 5477. Of course, YMMV.
 
Hey Scott, it looks like the ocean when the surf is rough. I love it!
Primble, that is one clean looking saw cut,,Man!

Nice one Scott :thumbup: I was really close to getting one of the "green" camel bone's myself, but went a different route. You got yourself a beauty right there!

Thanks, Perry. I lived next to Bellingham Bay for 14 years, and that is the first thing I thought of when I saw it!

Thanks, Shawn! It is fascinating to look at the color in the smooth bone. I think this one is going to go into the rotation.
 
Well there ya go, it will always remind you of the ocean then. I think it's a beautiful handle material, frankly!

Hey David, sorry, meant to comment on your beauty too. That's some great prespective shots of your new TC! Really shows the precision of the cutler's hand.

Thanks Scott :) I'm sure yours is a stunner as well - it's hard for them not to be :)

Thanks Perry :) - as is no doubt obvious by now, this is my "go to shot" - seems to be one of the few angles where I can avoid much glare…

That's a great idea David! I'll have to try this in the future.
Scott, I think it looks like a very custom handle, and on a simple boys knife! I like that combo!

Thank you Scott. :thumbup::) Your Michigan State knife is much greener than mine. Maybe they thought mine looked soupy, thus the mislabeled label. ;):D
