What Makes a Good, Traditional Barlow?

[supratentorial]

We are going ahead with the #14 Barlows!
Since they are fraternal twins with the Lick Creek Boys knives, I've decided to call them Lick Creek Barlows.
They will have TC bolsters, a smaller version of of those on the #15s.

I think making them easy to anticipate, we will follow the pattern of the older siblings - the first ones will have long-pull spears, and saw-cut handles, with some soup-bones. I'll make a larger run so they will be a little easier to get.

Off we go! We should have some by Rendezvous time in August!

Leaving for Oregon in the AM, so back to packing!!

:thumbup: looking forward to these #14 barlows

Tale of 2 Barlows : Both of the same date stamp vintage : One loved and used by an old farmer who was also a WWII Vet with covers with the saw cuts on the bone barely visable , and one that was just maybe loved but not even carried much and has covers with the saw cuts on the bone still like new.

I can't wait to see the 14 barlows come to fruition Charlie.
Here's a teaser for an Ken Erickson Barlow arriving to me this week. It sports sawcut antique Schrade bone done by one of my favourite makers/one of the best period correct makers in my opinion. It should be just a touch larger than the no.14's at 3 1/8" closed length.
