What Makes a Good, Traditional Barlow?

[RobbW]

Very nice, Coolio. Lot of history in that knife! Maybe H is for History, too!

^RobbW, you reminded me of something I forgot to mention, I have a son named Henry that we sometimes shorten to just "H", so that's another reason I've always had my eye out for an H-bolstered Hibbard!

Nice Hibbard story Brad. It looks great ! :thumbup:

These beauties by ESYNX came in today's mail. Stepped NS bolsters on brass frame & pins with some awesome rosewood covers salvaged from the old Catt factory. Fantastic work Evan!

Some more of Evan's traditional barlows.

Esnyx,

Those are very fine pieces of work, What a wonderful way to pay homage to the old Cattaraugus factory that turned out many fine knives in its years. That rosewood looks much better on those knives than the factory looked towards its end.

A few old ones

Nice collection there, Mark! What's the barlow at 2:30?

Here is my new prize! Many thanks to Jon (ThievesLikeUs) for finding and then selling me this outstanding specimen. What a great community of knife enthusiasts that find pleasure in helping one another secure that special traditional folder when it looks like it will never happen! It came with a mislabeled tube cap--whoever has mine would you please let me know and we will switch--(smile). Anyway, here are the pictures of this special soup bone TC
