Wiseman Daddy Barlow
This is a Daddy Barlow that I recently made. It is 4 1/2" closed. It has iron liners and bolsters with rough cut bone scales. The blade and spring are D-2. I tried to make it as traditional as possible but I didn't use 1095 because I am better at heat treating D-2. I also made it shorter than the usual 5" and proportioned it more like a regular Barlow.
Thanks for looking,
Gene

Super job. Great proportions. Thanks for showing it.
