Barlows does anyone else love them

[toomanyknives]

I loved these GEC #77 Sawcut Yankee Barlows

A blade for every occasion, ~Q~! Very nice!

Here's one of my favorite Case knives. I really like the Appaloosa bone. IMG_2958.JPG

That's a beauty, Kerry, I love the App-bone covers!
Very nice, buddy!

Thanks Marco! She's a looker!

GEC 86

All three are fantastic examples, Iman! I especially like the GEC with the spear blade.

Thanks bud, that's probably my fave too. Hard to beat a 77. Thanks again.

Ahh, collector makes more sense! I too have that affliction! That's a great old Case, and it came to you in a wonderful way..Nice to meet you! BTW , there is actually a music sub-forum. Another member, "Ridgegrass" is a big time collector and player.

Thanks for the welcome and kind comments. I actually just found the music sub-forum and an older post about a lovely old Harmony 12 string electric

Yes sir! If you want to see some cool stuff, check out the 1983 Les Paul thread in the Music forum..Scroll down and you'll see some of mine..

After seeing some of the guitar collections here, maybe I should rethink calling myself a collector.

I feel like that when looking at the knife collections on AAPK! I have a pretty good bunch, but it doesn't come close to some of them. As long as you're having fun, that's what matters!

Jet-Aer G96 Knife Makers Choice No. 812

No name, Damascus with smooth bone; brass liners, bolsters and pins; file worked back springs and bladed probably from Pakistan

A couple of lookers there, Gtr! They are keepers!

Thanks. I know a lot of collectors would consider one, maybe both, to be "junk knives'.

The Jet-Aer was the first, and still one of few locking Barlows I've ever seen. And as you said, the Pakistani Damascus is a "looker".

I really like the handle on the 1st one.

Like I tell my guitar playing buddies, "A guitar doesn't know where it was made or how much it cost. A good guitar is a good guitar"..
Same applies to knives, IMHO..

Is the Lionsteel on the far left the one you customized with ivory?

Yup, thats the one home made in the group. Thought that would appeal to those who like tusk.

You have fine taste in Barlow's, John, I particularly like the white Case with the black Case a close 2nd, could we please see the white model with the blade deployed, and where did you get it if you don't mind saying? Thx!

Cool pics jmh, loved scrolling through. Nice backgrounds, poses, cutlery, and I really like the roof shot. Good stuff all around.

Thanks bud, glad you like seeing them. That Tidioute is one of my faves bone wise. And it has the fluted bolster, etch, long pull and the Northfield trim not often seen on the Tidioute line. And the action and snap are so sweet. Tune in this week for the rest of them. Have a few more I plan to post next few days. Thanks again.

JMH, that’s a fine assortment of Cases, and the Utica’s a looker as well!
