ADDITIONAL INFO:                        This old IXL Barlow composite handles that were beginning to delaminate come apart. It also had a pen blade with a worn tang and little or no snap. I replaced the old handles sambar stag and dyed them. Of course I polished the inside of the knife when it was a part and I reassembled it is a single blade Barlow. The blade has very strong snap both opening and closing, however it does not have a half stop due to the rounded tang design. Ready for pocket or display case.

*By purchasing, the buyer confirms it is legal for them purchase and own this knife.
