One you just can't put down, thanks Perry:thumbup:

Pictured with a 1970 CASE Stag "nut"...

Beautiful side by side shot, Paul!:thumbup:

Nice picture Paul! Like Perry said about photography proper illumination and focus and this one does it. The "nut" makes the TC look like a whopper! Lloyd

My collection of Barlows so far. I'm getting a few nice ones here and there when I'm able to scrape up the dough and when they become available. A couple trades as well. I've only been trying to bring these together for a few months. But I'll keep looking. It'll start tapering off now though as I'm running out of trade bait.
I've tried to put together a little bit of varying handle materials as well as blade configurations. I need to look at some vintage stuff too. Patience grasshopper. Patience. :thumbup:

What's the "odd one out" Bob?

 

[Dr. Scott]

Nice collection, Bob. I especially fancy the yellow bone and Palo Santo.

What's the "odd one out" Bob?

Ed, that is a custom Esnyx Beerlow. Sheepsfoot main, caplifter, satin brushed bolsters and desert ironwood covers. Maybe not so much a "traditional" Barlow, but a beauty none the less and it has all the specs of most traditional Barlows in size and frame. I really like it a lot and think Evan knocked it out of the park with that one. :thumbup:

Thank you Scott. The yellow bone is one of my favorites as well.

VERY impressive collection you're putting together, Bob! :thumbup::thumbup:
I like that pic with the Beerlow directing the TC choir!

Thanks Gary.

Let me add my admiration as well Bob, beauties. I also love the yellow, which run was that? it just pops next to the others. Really cool picture.:thumbup:

 

[dispatch184]

I think I answered my own question, spey blade equals the Days Work run correct? Just the one run of speys?

Bob, I like the photo of barlows "in formation". Now you need a vintage Sgt. out to the side, marching these young fella's along. And I really like the yellow Day's work!

 

[philllll]

You are correct, Drew!

 

[BigBiscuit]

Thanks fellas. I want to try to find a sawcut with clip or spear point next.

 

[philllll]

I took a little detour yesterday and brought this PPP spear along to a historical Native American burial mound.

Lucky man you are, Phil, to be able to travel around with that knife in your pocket!:thumbup:
