Here is my lovely Ulster Old Timer Barlow which I found in a pawn shop in Gravette AR a few months ago.
This won't be an EDC due to the slightly wobbly blades, but still, it's a lovely old knife.

Good looking Barlow Mark. I like those older Ulster and Camillus Barlows.
I picked this one up today. New in the box, one of the new Colonel Coon Barlows. Not sure who is making Colonel Coons now. This one makes me think of a Bear & Son somewhat. But it does have great snap, and decent fit and finish. Thought it would make a nice addition to my Barlow Box.

This Ulster set is unusual in so many ways, Ulster Knife Co tang stamp, pattern numbers on back of tang except the one arm, both blades tang stamped, later knives only have main stamped, great grinds to the blades, never seen another of the one arms. They are higher quality than the later knives.
John, again you have shown a beautiful bunch of knives . Everyone has pretty much summed them up , you have an amazing group there .
Picked up a couple Camillus Barlows over the weekend ,theyβre both in great shape,have been buffed / cleaned by seller . But fortunately not excessive and the seller came down to a very fair price .
Thanks to All whoβve posted there Barlows here,been some dandies

That walnut handle is beautiful...reminds me of cocobolo with that color streaking.
Far as I could research, it seems that's a USA made knife...heckuva nice knife and a good value..!!!

Appreciate it Mark. Yep, I figure for $32, it should be a decent EDC Barlow.

I received this piece of Queen Ephemera today. It is the Box with Display for the Queen Steel #22 Barlow. This one is like knew with just a couple of slight creases in the back board, no major rubs and the die-cut straps to hold the knife for display have never been punched out. Here are some photos. I also included one with my 22 Barlow, but I didn't place it in the straps.
