Yes sir, it is!
Something you don't expect on a Barlow, right?

Here are some more pics I found:
Robeson Daddy Barlow
Hammer Brand shell handled Barlow
Camco sheepfoot Barlow
Case Barlow

Well, I think that is all the Barlows I have that I already have pics of.
I will have to dig out some more & scan them.

You guys keep posting so I don't forget about them.

Wonderful Barlows, everyone!! I really like this pattern and just recently started collecting them. Here are a few of mine:

2 UMC USA Remingtons

2 recent production Case

Boker and Russell

Colonial and Prov. Cut. Co.

Wow ! what a nice group of barlow pic's, Love the Tested Barlow what a wonderful knife to own, now I am not sure if I want to post these pic's of my junk barlow's

Yerout, buy yourself a dictionary. You obviously don't know the definition of "JUNK".

You fellas are sure showing some nice stuff.

It amazes me how many different twist there are on this design.

You gotta love a BARLOW !

Let's see some more.

Phil

A few of mine, Case, Remington, others, the last one is a Cripple Creek, my favorite

There are some beauties showing up here! A Barlow is such an elemental tool, simple and sturdy. I love 'em for their simplicity!
The only decoration on a lot of the old ones might have been a signature bolster. Some companies put effort into giving that decoration enough pizazz for braggin' rights. Evidence robesonsrme's Terrier! Here are some more marked bolsters.

My goodness Upnorth and Bookman

Great bunch of classic Barlows.

You don't really need that many nice old Barlows do you?

Phil

Nice Barlows, everyone. Cool pattern, but it never really appealed to me.

I've got a few, but no pics handy. I do have a pic of this one though...



Glenn

Oh yea, I found this pic too. Probably one of my nicest ones. Certainly not Charlie quality, but it's got character...



Glenn

Kaufmann and sohne Germany. Same folks that made the buck creek knives.

There's the difference between you and me Glenn !
They always appealed to me immensely!! Probably why I have way too many, at the expense of other patterns. Here are some Schrades, and related companies:

I almost forgot about this set of Boker (Before they were Chinese crap), Barlows. I picked up three of them at SMKW when we were in Tennessee last year then had the hardest time completing the set but I did thanks to EBay. A different one for a different type of game each year, a really nice set, wooden handles.

Dale, you got more to show us?

Anybody else??

Here's a few of mine:
A Case XX
A Colonial with a screwdriver secondary blade.
An IXL
A Kent
A Marx plastic knife
A couple of Case Daddy Barlows
A Russell with a sheepfoot blade
A couple of Schrades
A SwanWorks mini barlow
A Tip Top with a bone handle on one side and a wood handle on the other.

I am noteing that I like the BARLOWS that have some thing on the bolster the best. Even the ones that say BARLOW. I never see other paterns that have the patern printed on it.

Any reason why ?

I have this one with those little people on it.

Yes Johnnie, I'd love one. Shall I pm you with my address.

I had the first 3 KeenKutters for a while, then the fourth one popped up on A.G.Russell's website. Needless to say, I leapt for the phone!!
