What Makes a Good, Traditional Barlow?

[Duckdog]

A simple, hardworking knife. You can't ask more from an EDC barlow. Here's an Imperial with sawn Delrin covers - no pampering needed.

How about a dog Barlow while letting in the dog? She's sneaking in during the photo op

Is this the knife you mentioned Mr. Hilborn?
THAT is a gorgeous looking Knife and too good to let go of my friend.

Nice pair of treasures, Harry. Curved Barlows, stepped Bolsters and nice horn handles on traditional clip blades. Way cool!!

Queen Steel # 22 Barlow with aluminum frame and 440 stainless blades.

 

[StoneBeard]

Gifted this one to friend when they were released. Stopped by to see him last evening it was sitting on his counter and I had to snap a picture of such a well used and loved TC.

He told me of all the knives he’s ever owned this one was by far his favorite and he would never stop carrying and using it-

Picked up 3 nice Queen steel frame Barlows over the last couple weeks, all in mint condition, the one arm blade Barlow is hard to find in steel and if I'm reading the tang stamp right dates from the 50's.

Fantastic trio John, some fine looking bone one Drake Well and Razor Barlow’s. The Rawhide is no slacker either!

[Augie]

Thank you Russell, I was impressed with the Rawhide, really well built knife.

 

[rockman0]

I'll post up this Toole again just cause I like it.

A low cost, solid working knife. The original purpose of a Barlow. Satin finished 1095, with jigged Delrin scales, and an exposed pin in the bolster.
