What Makes a Good, Traditional Barlow?

Here is a recent addition. Colonial made. It's not a very high end model with expensive finished but in good working condition and a good user.

You don't see too many of these electrican or radio barlows. Especially of this size. Most of the electrician knives I have seen with this style driver are usually 4" or so.

The driver has a liner lock.

This one is 3.5"

I'm still digging the Boker Expedition Barlow. It's been splitting pocket time with the Case Richlite Tear Drop. The brass patina in getting worn off now from pocket and slip contact. The matte blade finish is finally starting to show wear as well.
