I know I've posted Robeson made Barlows somewhere on AAPK, though.
I have sold most of my Barlows and only have three or four now.
Here is a jigged bone handled Terrier with its bolsters embossed, "TCC". That logo reminds me of an early 20th century dapper gentlemen with mustache and pince-nez glasses.
This is a very rare knife. Someone, however, posted a near identical Robeson early in the thread.
I've only seen those two.

Here’s a Winchester and a Case xx I’m Sending out to get re-furbished..possible scale replacement if necessary on both..I got that Case for a song on eBay..Other than the broken scale it’s tighter than a snare drum and walks and talks loud…$21 with tax/shipping.. I was pleased with that..the Winchester I got in a lot of junkers years ago on eBay..Sending them out soon, I can’t wait to get them back…

That's a nice one, Ryan.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
Nice looking Sabre Barlow Ryan,
I have the same Sabre Barlow but yours is in much better condition.
Do you know how to date the Sabre from the tang stamp? Yours is a #3 and mine is a #603.
I know nothing about Sabre tang stamps but would guess yours is older than mine.

Re: The Venerable Old Barlow
Wasn't sure about this one but I'd wanted an I*XL for a while and the price was good
Looks like a repair job, and a fine one at that
thouight if i didn't like the contrasting scales i'd dye the bone black but actually i'm warming to it.
Cuts like a champ too
