Barlows does anyone else love them

[Madmarco]

I'm glad you're pleased with your new Case, Mark, and your shots are far better than the seller's other ones.
The display of Barlow's is nothing short of sensational, the new purple model will fit right in.
I saw your custom TC Barlow model in your store already and thought to myself, "I'm surprised Mark is parting with that knife, he loves it", but I'm sure you have your reasons.
It would be fun to view your entire collection all at one time some day, I'm certain we'd be in awe.

Thanks a lot Marco, tvic, GSP, toomanyknives. Appreciate the mention gents.

SSK, love seeing the big group shot, you have some stellar pieces in there, fabulous group to browse through and drool on. A+

That's a great line-up of Barlow's, Paul, and each one appears well used.
There were a lot of tools and parts in your White Hunter pictures, so I guess it stands to reason your knives look well used.
Very nice.

Thanks Marco , I use pretty much all my knives , daily and on camp , I can’t wait to get back out but been rough the last few weeks as my wife ended up in hospital and was touch and go , but she is home now and slowly getting better

Thank you Mark and Iman.
That is just about all my Barlow’s, I forgot to add the Rosecraft Blades to the case. I thought of that after I took the photos. I have a few in the store, but they sell out pretty quickly whenever I add a Barlow to the store. Seems to be a very popular pattern along with whittlers and Congresses.

People will be commenting on the beauty of that one long after we're gone, Iman! That is an heirloom knife you have there! Great pic as usual, too!

Ha ha, you're too kind. Hope you're right. That was a one of a kind and I was lucky to get it from Gunstock Jacks, thanks Barry. Thanks again Toomanyknives for the nice comments and all the best to you.

A 3-7/16", Composite, or hard rubber-handled, IXL Barlow with a stainless secondary blade. Both blades stamped "George Wostenholm, Sheffield, England". Always puzzled me why the springs, liners, secondary blade, pins, and bolsters are stainless and the main blade is carbon. The knife is original, shows no signs of disassembly. ?????? J.O'.

That's a nice old one, J.O. I had an old Kutmaster that had a mix of carbon and stainless blades . I guess they may have run out of something, or wanted to use up something they had too many of possibly. Or maybe a blade was replaced at a later time at the factory. I have a couple that I know have had blades replaced, but I sure can't tell. I think it's kinda' cool to have the mystery of something like that sometimes. they all have a story to tell. BTW, that looks like marker of some kind on the main blade. Do you think it may have been a salesman's sample, and they put the two types of blade steel on there to show the customers? Just a thought..
I really like the one IXL Barlow that I have. Here are a couple of pics of it..

Great pics. The corn is a great background. Fabulous bones too. Love the old brown saw cut bones.

Thank you, sir! That is our squirrel feeder! I thought the knife might look cool in there. Yep, that bone is purty!

That's my catalog numbers. It's just Sharpie. Wipes right off. I spent three weeks cataloging my entire collection for my son and grandsons. Wouldn't want to leave them a mess. O'.

Ahhhh. Smart man. Well, that rules out my Dick Tracy detective work about the salesman's sample! The mystery continues!

Lately I've been carrying my new Case purple barn board jig barlow. They did a good job on mine. The jigging was better than I expected too. As soon as I figure out how to post a picture, I'll put one up.
