Wow. Great stuff, Primble!

 

[glassjaw]

That certainly is a beaut Primble! The rust red bone has really been doing it for me recently.

 

[Tenacious D]

Today's mail:

Now that's a mail call Primble, glad that rust red bone found a good home...as well as those other two beauties:thumbup:

 

[Primble]

I appreciate all the comments from everyone. The rust red long pull clip I had been wanting badly for a good long while and I was stunned by it's great looks in person.

The blood red jigged bone spearpoint and the walnut spearpoint were also missing from my collection and I was happy to get them as well:

Filling a spot in a collection is a cause for celebration, Rob, but filling THREE!! WOW!!

Today's mail:

I didn't think these were available anywhere. Maybe a few on the bay but can you give me a clue as to where you found these?

 

[Primble]

I traded a few forum members on the clip knives. I actually obtained a fourth TC Barlow in the past week, this ebony long pull clip blade. I had to give up one Charlow, so I ended up gaining three. Yes - it was a very fine week in Charlow collecting!

Primble, those are just stunning! I really like the long pull ebony it just exudes strength and style.

Oh, of course your photography skills are the tops. I think you could create a fantastic glamor image of a rusty nail!

A treasured Keen Kutter with smooth Red Bone that I swear "GLOWS" in the right light---love this Barlow:thumbup:

Paired together with my favorite of any and all the knives I own, my Clip/Pen Ebony TC Barlow.

 

[Parke1]

Awesome photo, Paul. Two fantastic knives there!

I thought it was Primbles you collected?!

I have always thought that was one of the best-looking of the veritable Charlows, and that is superb photo sir :thumbup:

Wow Primble you did have a good Charlow week, we will have to see an updated collection pic. Charlow heards sure are nice to look at

Like that Keen Kutter Paul, the red bone sure looks good, is that the original handle?

Thank you p&g:thumbup: It was actually a two blade Barlow that Mark, aka Markesharp converted to the single blade Spear and re-handled in the beautiful smooth red bone

To say I like this one is an understatement

Looks like he did a good job of it. I have been tempted to try rehandling some of the old ones I have seen, would be a fun project, but I am sure mine would not come out looking that good. :thumbup:

Thank you and I agree with you about the Ebony knife. :thumbup:

Primble, I wish my mail came as pretty as yours!

Thank you Dave. I wish my mail came with all of your TC Barlows in it.

I see you say that you are a Schatt Junkie - any chance to see some pics of them - in another thread, of course?

Thank you Jack - I collect too much. :thumbup:

Thank you Pistons and I guess another group photo is in order.

I don't know if it had anything to do with it, but, last time I did the group Charlow pic, a hoarding thread began the next day, followed by a mind blowing Charlow GAW.

Paul and Mark - Very nice Barlow knives and pictures. :thumbup:
