Back At It

Post by just bob »

AAPK's favorite seller is back at it. I agree there was at least 1 pearl genuine Russell Barlow. I have info on that exact number somewhere. These were also given to executives. This however is not one of those knives. The blade is badly pitted and has been heavily machined. The bolsters have also been heavily polished. most likely the pearl handles have been put on this frame. One of the original executive Barlow's would have not been used or carried and would not have corroded like this. Caveat Emptor.
