What Makes a Good, Traditional Barlow?

These ARE very nice!

There is the simplicity, the sturdy presence, and often the simple but proud insignia on the bolster. I told him it was about time someone made the closest thing to a traditional Barlow that could be achieved in today's world, and he agreed this would be a worthy achievement.

A Western for today

Neat! I have one like it too. The mark side is stamped "WESTERN" over "BOULDER COLO" over Made in U.S.A.". The pile side of the pocket blade is stamped"822". Any idea of production era? I assume that the scales are Delrin so 1961 or later. Odd that the linings are steel.
