All About Pocket Knives

gino,
My guess is that you will soon have more..!

orvet,
Nice one!

Wow Wosey! That 2010 cCc Barlow is the cat's meow. That would be a good seller if they would put it in production, well I'd buy several of them anyway. It would be the cherry on the top if it was offered in CV steel too. I really like that Barlow.

Aimus

Wosey, I like that cCc Barlow! I don't buy many new knives, but I am sorry I missed that one!!

Barlows with 2 large blades are hot stuff, IMO!
Ever since I saw an old sheffield one belonging to Tony Bose a couple years ago, with trapper blades in it, I've been looking for one!
I suggested it for the Bladeforums 2009 knife, and it got adopted, and is beautiful! Queen even put it in their own production. And now Case is on the bandwagon!
How did it get designed for cCc??

Thanks WJ!!!

BTW, where can I get a pic of Queen's 2-large-blade Barlow??
Anyone??

Here's a few:

Don't know how I missed this thread 'til now. Better late than never.
So it seems from Trail's picture that the barlow was originally a single blade spearpoint.
Sort of like Upnorth's full bladed Remington on page 7, I suppose.
I prefer the twin blade clip point master but my pen blade may never get used.

Here are some that I have had:

Nice showing, SextonKW. Thosee Bulldogs sure are sweet.

Couple of mine. Mark Twain Barlow by Imperial and a Schrade Scrimshaw Ducks!

I've got a couple of Barlow's too

HOLY CRAP!!! I guess you do!! Knice Collection BB!

Do you know what makes this Barlow authentic, or is it just marketing?
Either way I don't think Mark Twain's own barlow looked any better.

That word is used a LOT in marketing. I believe Colonial made these Mark Twain barlows (could be wrong). They tend to be typical Colonial quality - not great but nice. Schrade may have even made them. The handle material looks like their Stagolon. A nice novelty.

These Mark Twain knives are made by Imperial Prov. R.I. USA made in the mid to late 70's.

Speaking of "old" barlows:

Big Barn- Barlow Shock & Awe!

Hello Everyone
I cant believe after all this time we dont have a nice "Barlow" Thread. I was inherited 3 pocket knives by my late Grandpa one of those was a "Russell Barlow". The "Barlow" knife is a Truly Historical Pattern among pocket knives & dates back to c1667, invented by Obadiah Barlow. I have long been fascinated by all the different "Variations" of the Barlow. I will start this thread off with my inherited "Russell" & the Supplee barlow mentioned in this months Knife World Magazine(jan 2012). They described the knife to be very similar to the Black & Labelle barlows, but did not show a pic of it. Thanks Mark

Hey Guys,

I wrote that article for KW. F. A. Black did make that Supplee. Supplee Biddle was a major hardware house in Phila. I own one as well. Not the prettiest knives in town, but well made.

Very interesting P.A knives, I thought the article & knives were fascinating & I really enjoyed it. That is why I went ahead and posted this supplee. I got a fabulous antique barlow coming in, that I think was another F.A Black made knife. When I get it in, I will post pics of it. Thx Mark

Thanks for pointing out the other barlow threads, There were some very nice antique barlows in there. Thx Mark

JACK KNIFE BEN, UNION STOCK YARDS, CHICAGO. Both blades marked. This one has iron bolsters, back springs and liners.
