Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
I've recently picked up 2 Furness barlows, 3 3/8" and 3 1/2" with decent blades considering. The larger knife has excellent blade snap. Including a picture of the information from Goins related to Furness barlows.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Nice story, Mark, and kudos to Darrell Maines!
Great find, redrider! That pair is certainly true to the wording of this thread, venerable! I would love to find one of those old Sheffield barlows.

Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
When the mood strikes to carry a barlow I like this old schrade. It's been around the block a few times. The center pin was broken (probably for many years) and Dale
fixed it up for me.

That's a nice old Barlow Paul.
It has the honor and dignity of hard work.

Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
I think the 1 or 2 blade Barlow style knife is one of the best pocket knives ever. I have 30 ranging from the mini to grand daddy Barlows in my collection. The picture is a display of about half of them.

Looks very nice David!!! Never seen that type of display case. That's really "High Speed" to put it in old Army slang.
