Case XX barlow ?
Case XX barlow ?
I've had this a while,and have been wondering if it is the Camillus contract knife that Pete Cohan was referring to on page 40 of James Parkers book : official price guide to collector knives eighth edition. The frame doesn't look like an XX era frame and the bolster is not stamped. Or, could someone have replaced the blade on another frame.
Thanks Monte

A contract knife, but Utica, not Camillus. Most of the barlows that Utica made on contract for Case had sawcut black composition handles and CASE XX upside down on the bolster.
