My wife is my editor - she usually just asks me to reduce the number of exclamation marks!!!??? But I just can't sometimes!!! My excuse is "no one will recognize my writing without them"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So true!!!!!!!!

Was able to add a 14 Lick Creek barlow to the pile. It is a Charlie SFO and the bone is called ragg bone, beautiful little barlow.

I love that name Ragg Bone!! It's like the opposite, but counterpoint of Soup Bone!!!!
Nice one John!!
When I was a child, those many years ago, There was a raggety man on a horse-drawn cart, collecting Rags and Bones, in residential neighborhoods in Buffalo, NY!!!!
I remember his voice, 75 years later; shouting "Ya Rags"!!! And I can hear his swayback steed clopping slowly along the pavement!!!!
An early recycler!!! I heard he tore old clothing up, made bundles, and sold them to auto mechanics and machine shops!!!
(Talk about going off topic!!!!)

I just acquired my second Charlow, this time in sawcut goldenrod bone!

Thanks Charlie, really like this one, I wanted one when they came out but as usual missed the drop, I think there were only 38 made.

A gathering of sorts. Wonderful textures Charlie. I added my own texture in Doug Fir as the base.

I don’t think that one is Charlie’s but I love the sawcut on it

That yellow background really changed the color of those bone handles.

My mistake; I assumed the CAR on the tang stood for Charlie.

In ‘21, I believe, GEC started offering their their own TC Barlows, along with Charlie’s SFOs. Prior to that, they were all Charlie’s - again, I believe.

The non-Charlie ones are marked “Good as Gold,” as your etch indicates.

CAR stands for Carbon Steel.

Happen to be carrying these two today.

No problem at all! You can usually tell by the tube art
