I looked through almost 200 small Barlow's on eBay and not a one of them was 3" even. 3¼", 3-3/8" and lot of 3½" along with the tiny ones that are 2+". Is it possible you're chasing a ghost?

Going to be provocative but I'm not realy looking for a GEC.

As nice at they are they won't fit into my collection of old used beaters which is my 'thing'

I've seen a few 'boys' knives in the Barlow style in past and thats realy what i'm after

Imperial made them at one time in the shell handled style (probably Hammer Brand as well). OH

As OH pointed out, this is a 3" Barlow. However, this one is in relic condition in my opinion. But this could be what you're looking for.
