Quotes not working for me right now. Thank you to Duncan, Ron, and Robert ! Duncan that Copperhead jigged bone was the cream of that crop !
Robert - nice bucket mouth - bigger than Philllll's little fish ! :thumbup:
Lol yeah that little toad was right at 9 lb 12oz. Would've been a qualifier had it been during one of my tournaments.

I think I have ogled this thread enough to know that I want to seek out a Stew's Blade as my first TC
In the mean time, 77 stag with me today
Beautiful #77!
Have you ogled enough to know whether you prefer a one- or two-bladed Stew's Blade?
It's a continual conundrum for me. I love having a secondary on most "jack knives," with my razor-mained Stew's Blade and Boy's Knife being no exceptions-- I welcome the secondary pen to supplement the unique, "broken spear" mains.
And yet... and yet... could someone who requires the easy-open of the main blade access the secondary pen? Is it... vestigial?
What say (all of) ye?

Just added the clip to complete the trifecta! Rust-red sawcut on a double TC is my favorite setup.

Very nice collection Are those all rust red? I am really liking the color and about to be on the hunt for a clip tc Barlow. I feel like clips have been missing these days on barlows. I need I need!

Yes, all rust red. NOT easy to get, nor cheap, unfortunately. Although the rust red jigged ones are easier.

Congrats, Gus, on your success with your TC collection! Those rust-red sawcuts are incredible, and you must be a persistent and well-informed searcher! :thumbup:
I don't post it every day, but I could: your TC photos are top-notch!! :thumbup::thumbup:
I don't have any TC Barlows, but I certainly agree with you that a Barlow (and for me, any jackknife) ought to have two blades.

Congrats on a beautiful threesome, Gus!
Speaking of Gus, I was able to get this yellow bone, 2-bladed Day's Work from him on the Exchange. This was the melding of two of my want list items - yellow bone and 2-blade Day's Work - in one Barlow. Yay! I also have a Rust Red Saw Cut Stew's Blade coming in from one of our Canadian forumites. This has been a good week!
