Water, Wind and Fire!

Very good of you Charlie, I would be happy to enter the give away and of course would keep the knife if lucky enough to win it.
Here is my picture of some of your other projects along with some TCs

That would be a first barlow for me, but even better, that would be my first single bladed sheepsfoot. As much as I love stockman, I pretty much carry one for the sheepsfoot, so that would be more than welcome as my go to. I've never sold a knife before and I wouldn't start with that one. The way I see it, they all belong to my little girl and little boy, I'm just borrowing them until they're old enough. Good luck everyone! Awesome gaw :thumbsup:
 
Not at home now so I can't access my stuff. I have one PPP TC, another with a wharncliffe and another blade, a Campagna original HJ, a Campagna Washington and maybe something else.

I am at a North Carolina beach hoping Maria does not rain on me. It is fun finding whole conch shells, something I have never been able to do. Nice wave action and really high tides too. Almost time for another walk.
 
I'm in. Don't yet own a TC and it's been four decades since I had an old plastic-scaled Imperial Barlow from Ireland, but as this is the Trad forum, here's what I'm carrying today. A maasepänpuukko by Malanika.

I don't yet have a TC and this would be a lovely and cherished companion! Lovely giveaway :)
 
Awesome giveaway, Charlie. I would love to be counted in on this contest.

I definitely agree it's been a tough go for a lot of people this year. Hope the last part of the year brings some much needed rest and support to the storm weary.

I don't own a TC, a GEC, or even a barlow, but would be proud to own that beautiful knife, and guarantee it wouldn't go anywhere except my pocket, where it belongs! Thanks for the opportunity, and good luck to all.
 
First of all; thank you very much Charlie for a generous GAW.
Living here in the central valley of California this summer (heck, the last four summers) has been most unpleasant. The smoke from all the fires in the Sierra's typically settles in the valley, and makes for really poor air quality. That makes this TC quite appropriate to remember all those fires, & those who fight these fires. Of course I would carry this as a special knife, and never sell it. I always felt a feeling of nostalgia carrying a TC Barlow. Reminds me of a day when my dad said they would play baseball with their Barlow's when he was a kid.

I currently do not own a TC but I hope to change that one of these days!!!! I can, however post a pic of the 77 that is joining me today in the hope that it will help everyone see that, no matter how dark, dreary, or down the times may be as of late, the sun IS still shining!!!

I wish everyone out there the best and hope that all is well!!!!! Also, if I were to win this knife it would be cherished and would likely never leave my side!!!

Wow - what a very generous TC Barlow as a GAW Charlie :thumbsup: :thumbsup: ... I would love a shot at it...

Of course I would never sell it... it would be indeed special to win it as it would be my first TC Barlow :) ... I do have a TC to share but it is a #14 Boys knife but not a TC Barlow unfortunately :( ...

Thanks Charlie again for a chance :thumbsup: ....

Charlie, why would you do this to me? I was SO happy to have what I thought was the full run. ;) I won't be parting with any of these, since they were what made up the production when I visited GEC. I certainly wouldn't part with a 1/10 from The Godfather of Barlows himself!

I'm in! Thanks for the opportunity.

Super giveaway, Charlie, and very interesting bone. It reminds me of the old pond bone GEC used in 2007.
My favorite of the TCs, the 3rd cut stag 2-blade, next to a similar #78 American jack in primitive bone. Notice how much blade the TC has in a full quarter inch shorter frame.

Thank you Charlie for absolutely everything you have done, not only have you looked after me so well- but what you do for so many others and the Knife World in General- is simply amazing.
It would be nice to see someone with none or few TC'S to pick up this beauty!
Not an entry my friend- But a massive Thanks to you and to Joanne who at a guess provides a lot of support and help in your ventures, and good luck everyone.
:thumbsup:
 
Charlie, Duncan is much more statesman like, I however fall into that "Shameless" catagory:eek: I would love a chance to enter, yet will be happy if someone else wins. TC's are my kryptonite:)

I would NEVER part with such a treasured TC. Please count me in on your VERY GENEROUS GAW:thumbsup:

My most treasured TC, a 2013 Gabon Ebony Clip/Pen TC.

Very generous, Charlie! :thumbsup: We have friends of relatives, and relatives of friends that are/were in a few of the recent hurricane areas. So far everyone is okay, as far as we've been told. Thank you, and everyone else for the support and prayers.

There are folks on this thread way more deserving than this old curmudgeon, but I will join in, as I have posted a few pics from time to time - with some admittedly brief, but hopefully accurate and entertaining descriptions. :oops::rolleyes:

Would not sell it, would even gladly pay full price for this knife right now. :eek:

Old enough! Born in '49. :p

Thanks, Charlie. My TC's so far...

Thanks, Charlie. You'da man, and that bone is swell.

I promise that I would not resell this knife. I'm plenty old enough. And here are my favorites from my TC pictures:
