I was giving this old Colonial Barlow by my Dad the other day. The pictures don't do it justice. It looks worse in the pictures. I can't get over how sharp it will get. The lock-up is perfect, very strong knife. Can you guys tell me how old it is. Just curious. I am proud to have it, I have been carrying it every day. Thanks and God Bless

Could be from the mid 40's from this research info.

That style barlow was part of the RANGER line, introduced in the 1970's.

Thanks for the information. I will always keep this Barlow because my Dad gave it to me. I will pass it down to my son. This makes my 5th Colonial knife. I have three Rangers, a Barlow and a Old Cutler. The steel in this knife is great. Razor sharp. God bless
