Thank you very much my friend .Wow, Harry those are gorgeous! What are the covers? Horn?
Newb to the porch question - is the Boy’s considered a barlow or because of the smaller bolster it’s something different? ThanksThis cocobolo would have been really nice on that barlow.

Thanks - some must take liberties with semantics, looking at you BokerThe boy's knife is just that - a boy's knife, or a regular jack knife. Barlow patterns are made by the longer bolster. The longer bolster really does make the knife feel different. It's heavier, the metal feels different in hand. Not all boy's knives have steel bolsters and liners, either.

The curved are very nice, but I'd like some more of these, too . . . in new handle materials!
