Help me identify this knife!

Former Schrade President Walley Gardner and principal Joe Hufnagel joined with nine master cutlers to form a group of US craftsmen with over 300 years of combined knife making experience to create Canal Street Cutlery. It was first located in upstate New York where a long and rich tradition of quality knife making dates back to the 19th century. Unfortunately, the company closed its doors in 2015, but not before making some great knives. The brand was resurrected in 2018 as Canal Street Cutlery Co-Op & focused on making very small batches of high quality traditional knives. As a Co-Op, it was owned by the knife makers who worked there. Unfortunately, the business model couldn't hold up & the entity again ceased production.

Hi everyone! Can anyone provide any information on my latest acquisition? It is a prototype and I would really like to know the blade steel used. Thanks!

I'm not sure but it might be the same knife discussed in this topic from 2013. The pics are gone but the blade steel is mentioned in the first post.

Rick,

You are correct in the Steel Type....The Canal Street Barlow has 14-4 CrMo Clip and Pen Blades

Danwilli22,

I actually own that same exact knife which was also a PROTOTYPE and a second one (PROTOTYPE) that has the Canal Street Etching on the Bolster. In addition I own another 20 of their English Barlows. I absolutely loved their Barlows.

Thank you for the help guys! Much much appreciated. I love that steel so I’m very happy. 440c would have been ok but I prefer 14-4.
