Your 97 looks great!Long dog walk, changed the battery on my wife's car, doing a few tasks around the house, dropped everything to go look at an open house. These two are doing everything I need from knives today.

I "grew up" (or at least got older and taller) in Iowa.I screenshot this last night because before last night I’d never heard of a snow squall much less been in a warning for one. View attachment 1746264
You must have the world's biggest overtime checks... you work a lot.
Amen to that!
If I got to design a NF Barlow, that's exactly what I'd come up with... Perfect!
Those make a very handsome und useful pair.
That's a Beauty, Will.![]()

Carrying this new-to-me GEC Red Micarta #77 Jack
I was hoping GEC would run a Jack with their current #77 Barlows, since I've been wanting one for years.
So, I'm more than super excited to be able to get this one in a trade as i watch everybody else post their new Barlows.

Spectacular Saturday pair my friend
The 77 is very nice, but that fixed blade steals the show. Don’t think I’ve seen that model before (or I’ve forgotten that I have). OHI think it’s gonna be hard to knock the 77 outta my pocket.![]()
