Killer bone and since they went out of business in 1948 or something, they dont make them anymore. I dont know who made it for them, but what a great job they did. Thanks for asking.toomanyknives wrote: βThu Mar 21, 2024 12:51 amThey did a pretty nice job on this on, Iman. Thanks!

Welcome Rick! i can't even begin to imagine how many kids dream knife was an Imperial Barlow. I know it was one of the first knives I bought with my own money, when I was about 9 years old!TrickyRick wrote: βFri Mar 22, 2024 8:19 pm Only two Barlow's in dad's collection that I am taking care of. One is an old Imperial, the other no tang stamp so probably a recent import from somewhere.
I've got very fond memories of the Imperial Barlow. Dad was a troop leader for our church's' Royal Rangers scout group, and the Barlow and an Imperial Kamp King are the knives I remember him showing us how to use and whittle things with. To be able to still visit with him about my memories of those days and those knives makes me feel very grateful.toomanyknives wrote: βFri Mar 22, 2024 9:50 pmWelcome Rick! i can't even begin to imagine how many kids dream knife was an Imperial Barlow.
