Barlows does anyone else love them

An there ever be too many “sweet“ Barlows? They just keep coming. I must say, I’ve been looking at that B&S “Beer Tender” myself.

An old Keen Kutter. Apologize if I already posted it. Was oiling it and thought I would post it.

Another great old knife with stories to tell!

Yes sir! Thanks Kerry!

ww, if you can't remember if you posted it before I probably can't remember if I have seen it before. So just go ahead and post.

Picked up a couple of new Barlows. Both made by Blue Grass Cutlery. A Winchester with what I think is green turquoise and the John Primble has mammoth molar.
Took an updated picture of the Barlow collection, this one includes the spillover collection. Going to be filling up two display cases eventually. Barlows are now the most numerous pattern I collect.

Thanks guys. Funny when I started collecting I didn’t really like Barlows.

Hey!!! ... me too .... ... I am sure it was the AAPK influence that has caused me to ... let's say "transition" so to speak. But years ago, I didn’t really like Barlows. ...

TMK, that’s a beautiful Barlow. Case has always had some of the best scales in the business.

Thanks TopDog

I have recently returned to the Barlow! By way of explanation, When I was a youngster, I was raised by a single mother who didn't approve of me having a knife in my pocket, but I was 8 and had "My Own Money" (I was an active coke/pepsi/sprite...bottle collector and took then in to the grocery store baskets at a time). I started my knife ownership with a toothpick shaped fish knife, but that got confiscated by my mother. So I settled on the Barlows, Imperial, Sabre and such, usually less than $2 at any hardware store or K-mart. I used them hard and my younger brother stole it if I left it out on my dresser or... So I had many Barlows over my child hood. Then I got into other shapes and became more careful with usage and storage of my pocket knives.

I just recently re-discovered my love for the Barlow shape and I picked this one up. A Western...I am predicting that it will be the first of more to come...

Thank you! It is a pleasure to carry, a very solid knife. I did clean up the patina on the blades...Not worried about messing with the collectability...its a keeper.

... I've had maybe 1,000 knives pass through my hands and I don't recall ever seeing a Western Barlow .... and I collect Western ... So, it is nice to see your picture, that is a great piece indeed!
