Re: Barlows does anyone else love them
Beautiful scales bigmac, nice one.
Papa Bones, love the box shot of Barlows, was fun checking out your little stash. Love the group shot, says a lot more about a person.

Re: Barlows does anyone else love them
I believe this is my first post on this thread. What have I been waiting for? Here's a trio of Russell Barlows, the dark colored bone with the long pull is suspicious, it doesn't meet all of the "true Russell" tests. But I like it.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Barlows does anyone else love them
Wow David, all three of those are sweet. I’m always drawn to the Bear Barlow’s. I sold one a few years ago and regret it ever since. The Remington is classic looking. The show stopper is that RCC, love that strawberry red bone and the engraved bolster. Thanks again for the purchase and the mention.

Len that is a beautiful Barlow. The handles are especially nice on that one.

Re: Barlows does anyone else love them
Killer group. Nice lookers. And gotta say I really like the nicks or notches filed/cut into the scale of that top larger one. Would love to know what each notch means. Wow, that's like an event recording device now as well as a knife. Hhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, maybe I will have to start notching a knife's scales to record the numbers of something. Wow, whole knew concept.1967redrider wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 11:07 pm I believe this is my first post on this thread. What have I been waiting for?

There was some speculation as to what those hash marks represent, posted somewhere here on AAPK. But I can't seem to find it at the moment . . .

Re: Barlows does anyone else love them
Iman, that stag is a great custom, beautiful Barlow.
A pair of Queen made Robeson barlows, these knives were made when Bill Howard of GEC was in charge and are very high quality.

Re: Barlows does anyone else love them
I have those John and they are the pride of my Barlow collection.
Iman, those Tidioutes are nice, especially the stag.
John those Primbles look exceptional. Something I like about the squared off look.
MillerBros, what a great looking collection of Barlows.
