My understanding is that these are called, quite simply, "Tomato."
(As any of you with acrylic covers knows, they can look very different from one picture or angle to the next, depending on how the light catches 'em.)
This knife was another gift from a friend, in this instance Mr. Barlow himself, waynorth. I believe those are his initials on the shield...?

Very nice I looked all over for one of those in tomato after i saw a picture of one I think Boggs posted, ended up finding an ebony that I really like. I do like the looks of the tomato acrylic, seems to be my favorite of the acrylics.

Everyone seems to have had a great Christmas Apologies for this lengthy post, but there's been a lot of treasure on here over the past couple of days
Thanks my friend. That was my attempt at giving the Sheffield cutlery industry a kick up the backside. Eighteen months of blood, sweat, and banknotes. A story for another time...
Very classy Duane :thumbup:
Glad it arrived in time Elliott :thumbup:
Another one of your wonderful pics Mark, and a great knife of course
That's looking really good Duncan :thumbup:
Absolutely stunning! :thumbup:

That is lovely, what a generous feller

I love this picture.
This knife was a surprise to me (I didn't choose it, nor even know it existed); the tomato is ridiculous. In a good way! It makes me laugh. The Teamster is also my first #66, and I'm amazed at how comfortable the handle is, abetted by the round bolsters. The Teamster etch is the first I'll be truly sorry to see go, if and when that happens.
Three of my favorite things - Knives, stag handles and dogs!
There's a winning trifecta for you, in pocketable form.
Ooooh, an Arno Bernard. His level of finish (for lack of a better word) is incredible. Very nice gift!
Yeah, what happened to all o' them?

LOL!
That one was OK, if a little battle weary! Only 25 were made, most of them went to very satisfied customers, a few were gifted, and some of them, unfortunately, were stolen
