The Case Barlow is BACK

[TheFactor]

To me, the horizontal sawcuts found on these case barlows resemble marks made by a bandsaw rather than marks made by a round saw blade. I like the look no mater how they were made.

Agreed and yes regardless I love the covers that’s for sure .

Is the red one on the top a Case?

I would like to find out where you got that, but I can't message you because your inbox is full.

 

[vintagebob]

Gah! You forced me into a Gold Membership. I'm tired of my inbox being full.

Please try again.

My first Case, a sawcut Barlow, is on its way.

I've been really enjoying mine; this may just be my favorite traditional, even over my GECs.

Nice patina! I'm really liking mine as well. Good size, easy in the pocket and useful blade shapes!

 

[TheFactor]

Sure enjoying mine to !

Thanks, I've been using mine as my primary steak knife
It does ride easy in the pocket doesn't it. Feels great in the hand too

I've been a Barlow fan since my Dad gave me one of his hand-me-downs 60 some years ago, and I've acquired "a few" since I joined here. Case did such a great job on these that I ended up with four of them. I've been lucky, because all of them have been really nice examples of what Case is capable of doing.

Same here.

Hope you get a good one.
Silly question perhaps, but did you choose the blue or the brown?

 

[Mayonardo]

Went for the brown. More pleasing to my eye and I think a more traditional color.

Those WC Lambfoots are something to behold! I hope GEC makes a large run of those some day.

I got another Barlow on the way, it likely won't kick this one out of my pocket but its an itch I had to scratch
What I would love to see is another sawcut bone with a single spear in CV

I’m still contemplating buying the smooth natural bone clip/pen.

I’d like a two blade with a straight secondary. Replace the pen with a coping.
