Here is an old Schrade Cut Co Barlow I picked up for a few dollars.
It was in pretty rough shape but I thought I could salvage it and make a good EDC.
Here are some before and after pics. My only regret is that the bone I used for the handle turned out far more yellow after I polished it.
I like the steel in these old knives. They seem to hold an edge even better than the later Schrades and seem to get sharper, but it could just me.

PS- It is a GREAT EDC!
