Gevo : I am a little late in seeing this and I had to look at it a couple of times to be sure of what I saw!!!!! WOW !!!!!! I thought a Cattaraugus was my Grail Barlow , but you just changed it.

How does Smooth Yellow Bone, Saw Cut Old Tan, African Blackwood, and Snakewood (if I can get it!) sound?

The blade will be stamped, not etched, for extra traditional coolness.

Snakewood..Mmm mmm mmm Barry that looks amazing. Haven't been here in a while but I can't wait for these and I've alot of catching up to do.

Got an ebony in for the meantime~ All the Ancients I've seen Charlie are a testament to quality and ingenuity~

Thanks guys! They should be completed by November some time, probably after the regular run of 25's.
 
Looks like a winner to me, bud! I would've loved to see one of your etches on the blade though! How about a special Barry label??

I agree with Evan Barry, already a winner in my book but a nod to your ideas in this design would be great

Thanks Gev!! I love curved stamps - they speak of age and care for details!!

The UTK is a phonetic for Utica in my opinion, as has been mentioned before by Duncan etc.

I suspect the trademark followed shortly after, or coincided. I am pretty sure UTK preceded the name Kutmaster.

Great knife, and with a story to tell!!
 
I've got my order in for a vest pocket Barlow from Barry! A worthy version of the WLST(TM)!!:thumbup:
:D
