Want to make a Barlow. Need a pattern

0B8EFE87-FB66-4285-A3F1-54911C67E69E.jpeg 79CECCEB-2308-4239-8275-7909D9D2D073.jpeg 2AD25239-D35C-4CAB-8428-82E829B7DD31.jpeg 1261121C-84D3-499C-8264-8F4581DD0FE7.jpeg Here are some pics with different lighting and such. Each pic has each of the pieces for scale. Hope they help. The springs all seem the same to me I included two anyway. I included the two covers and a middle liner to show pin placement, it would be a little different on a barlow though for the change in cover slab and bolster sizes. I’ve taken some apart and put some together but never made one from the ground up. Good luck. Also I’m not sure if you can save them from the forum or not so if you need them emailed you can pm or post you email address.
 
Thank you very much, I can’t see the site from work other than from my phone. The pics look great!
I’ll take a closer look at them when I get home.
Very cool!
 
Hey, Just drew it up, I hope it can help a bit :D The pins can of course be of different size, and the bladeshape be modified to suit your taste, I just did some generic spearpoint. The pivot area design should be kept as is to guarantee for flushness in all positions and enough air between edge and backspring. Backspring on the butt-end can be modified within the limits of the pin of course.
A thing I changed from the picture you've sent is bring the blade-tang that was protruding in closed position in enough to be flush with the handle.

quality of the picture isn't the best as I've aborted the render when I noticed that the one you've sent has no endcap. but I think you still get a feel for the looks from it so yeah, here is is anyway :D

This really looks amazing, I can only see it on my phone as work filters all knife sites but it looks great.
Thank you for taking the time to draw that, everyone here has been super nice.

I’ll check it out better when I get home tonight.
