What Makes a Good, Traditional Barlow?

Duncan... each picture got better and better. Beautiful Case barlows! And that TC is elegant, clean, love it :thumbup:

Was admiring my TCs... something I do at least once a day.. ha ha.. and decided to take a little Spear Saturday pic. Spears represent the largest block by blade type in my little collection.

I saw this on our Exchange and just could not believe it, I have wanted this knife for some time...
I have a couple of Stunning Clip Point 60's era Case Red Bone Barlows, one is particularly special to me that I carried on my Wedding Day, here is a Spear Point Brother to my Clip Points - what a lovely Knife! I am really impressed with the near full blades- Stunning Early case Red Bone that almost hues between a Orange and a Red- ans I really really like this Bone on this beautiful knife, this knife and I are the same age - both amazing conditioned Vintage Models lol.....

Case Red Bone and Native NZ Rimu.....

I took the time to read the blurbs on various of Charlie's tubes. The words on the TC red jigged bone really struck a chord.

"We can provide the tools for the next generation. We can give them a break from the continuous feed of worldly propaganda, so they can actually contemplate it a bit. ... Even if you just make a pile of shavings, your thoughts are your own when you whittle a stick!"

That's probably enough politicking. Here's my good traditional barlow.

TC barlow wonderful, but which one is not it?:thumbup::D
 
PT-Luso and MJ.... fantastic TCs both of you! And MJ thank you... the sawcut on the PPP is one of my favorite looking covers so far :thumbup:
 


My Barlow family welcomes another beauty. The "Days Work" Barlow in saddle brown saw cut bone. I have done some investigating and I think I know whose barlow it was before me..........



Here is a picture I happened to find on a traditional thread.......from who do you ask? Dean "RDaneel" notice the two spots towards the spine of the knife.



And here is a photo I took of it today. I thought it would be cool to show how a knife makes its way around the community.
