Are you referring to the upcoming TC Barlow?

Ha ha! I felt exactly like this for a long while!! This one here has been stuck in that 4 inch display case distance for many months. I am finally breaking it out for use. I also recently found my old Boy Scout workbook so they are posing together.

Drew. I love that TC. One of my favourites. Good on you for giving it a run. MJ.

Thank you my friend! No patina as of yet but some minor cutting tasks so far.

Wow I had not scrolled back far enough to see the curved Russel Barlow. That one just sings to me, what a neat knife Charlie!

You're welcome, Charlie. The revival of the Woolow is off my bucket list. Moving on to restoring prominence for another lost in history, the stagg barlow.

But, one victory at a time. May the bleats of victory echo through these forums as we ungulate the adulation of the Barlow... I mean, adulate the ungulation of the Barlow!

I just cannot wait to see this release Charlie! Exciting !

Thank you

Just got caught up on this thread. When do we get to hear about the Wooly Bully (is that the name)? Sounds very intriguing. In the mean time a little pic I took of a growing Charlow family.

 

[MJ71]

Great collection JITDC. Here's my huddle of 10 TCs.

 

[RDaneel]

Good looking family, JITDC. And handsome huddle, MJ71.

 

[JITDC]

MJ71 that is a sweet looking huddle! Such wonderful knives, love the variety.

Thanks RDaneel !

That might be one of the coolest Barlow bolsters I've seen!!

I'd give three thumbs up if I could.

Well, I am all thumbs sometimes, so here's 10!
