That's a sweet Barlow.
You are "prepared" good sir.
I 100% agree... Case knives from the 70's and 80's are among the best.
A couple of fantastic examples.

Going with the Usual Lamb and Boker Barlow
Thank you my friend
Probably a bit over-prepared with the way things stand here at the moment 
At least I'll have a bottle-opener later though 
Fine pairing there John

Your Steingass is pure class Gary, and a great accompaniment to your Lloyd Trapper

For Thrifty Thursday. Got the Queen in 1993 for $16.99 and the SAK was a gift along about the same time or a little before.

It’s a small cutting board made of some spalted red oak that came off my father-in-law’s property. The big loopy handle was a product of following the veins of spalting to show it off. I lucked up and cut into that piece of wood at the perfect time. The tree had split in half in a storm. This piece was at the flared, compressed, and somewhat burled base of the tree that was still in the ground. It was like finding lost treasure when I cut into it. I’ve had fun making all kinds of jewelry, key chains, and toys out of it for family and friends.

Nice old Queen with some great color on those bone handles.
That OU looks to be a wonderful shot gun! Who made it? If you don't mind me asking.

This is a special one for me. My dad gave this knife to me on my 13th birthday in 1999, and his dad gave it to him on his 13th birthday in 1969. My grandpa definitely carried it a little before he gifted it! I love it's smoothness with spots of jigging showing through.
