Dad found this old Camillus Granddaddy Barlow at a gun and knife show and I liberated it from him! This is the first one of this pattern that I’ve ever had.

Dirty shame you don't have a chunk of that beautiful old Camillus bone to put on that 72. Other than that, it appears to be in fantastic condition. Great find Phil.

Lol. I promise, it was with his consent. I bought the Barlow from him and yesterday I changed out a light fixture for them. Mom and dad can’t stand for anybody to do something for free for them so when I wouldn’t let them pay me dad insisted I take the knife.

I tell ya, it’s hard to raise good parents.

Next time just tell them it's payback for puttin' up with you when you were a kid. :mrgreen: If they should counter with "but we did that out of love" your immediate come back is "and I do this out of love and you can't buy love."

I’ve tried that. But dadgum they’re hard headed. I’m just thankful that trait skipped me. :mrgreen:

TOPDOG, Though I have no experience with Gerber Bowies the thick guard and wide ricasso tell me the designer was focused on delivering POWER. No subtlety here, just the efficient delivery of maximum force. If you utilize the blade for some serious chopping let us know how well the knife performs. I would be interested in learning if any hot spots develop in your hand when using this.
