Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
hey Piledriver I just found my WYETH stag barlow. It has a spey blade My blades are marked WYETH WARRANTED CUTLERY ENGLAND I will try to get a picture on in the next couple of days
Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
Here are my three Barlows. Bear and sons, Camco USA 551 and a Boker. The Boker feels the most premium and is nice looking but is a bear to open so honestly I think the 551 is my favorite.. just thought I'd share.

Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
This arrived very recently in a group of pocket knives that I bought. This particular pocket knife was NOT the target of my purchase. Although I have a few, I do NOT purposely collect Barlow pattern or style pocket knives. It is an Imperial, two blades, 3 3/8" closed, two tang stamps, "Barlow" pocket knife. Nice "Hammer Brand" stamp on the bolster. It needed some cleaning. Except for the tiny nick in the main blade, both blades are in much better condition than they look. I took some pictures and here it is.

Couple old ones added this week, a nice Remington and a cracked ice Schrade Cut Co.
Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
Nice Remington, well both nice, but those Remi bones reeeaaaaaaallllly get the blood pumping. You always blow me away with your beauties. Keep them coming and hats off to your knife hunting skills.

Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
This pocket knife arrived in a large group or lot of pocket knives that I purchased. I did NOT buy the group or lot to obtain this particular pocket knife. However, I am NOT complaining that it was in the group or lot and it is definitely a keeper. It is a Sabre, two blades, single tang stamp, two stamped bolsters, 3 1/4" closed, "BARLOW" pattern or style pocket knife. The tang stamp reads "Sabre - JAPAN." One bolster reads "BARLOW" and the other bolster reads "Sabre BRAND." Both blades have a VERY WICKED snap. It's in EXCELLENT condition. It did NOT require any cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
These two pocket knives arrived recently in a large group or lot of pocket knives that I purchased. I did NOT buy the group or lot to obtain these two particular pocket knives. However, I am NOT complaining and they are both keepers. They are both Sabre, pattern 629, single blade, single tang stamp, two stamped bolsters, 5" closed, "BARLOW" pattern or style pocket knives. Both tang stamps read "Sabre - JAPAN - 629" Two bolsters read "BARLOW" and the other two bolsters read "Sabre BRAND" Both are in VERY GOOD condition. Both needed minimal cleaning. I took some pictures and here they are.
