Canal Street Introduces New Barlow @ International SHOT SHOW

Former Schrade President Walley Gardner and principal Joe Hufnagel joined with nine master cutlers to form a group of US craftsmen with over 300 years of combined knife making experience to create Canal Street Cutlery. It was first located in upstate New York where a long and rich tradition of quality knife making dates back to the 19th century. Unfortunately, the company closed its doors in 2015, but not before making some great knives. The brand was resurrected in 2018 as Canal Street Cutlery Co-Op & focused on making very small batches of high quality traditional knives. As a Co-Op, it was owned by the knife makers who worked there. Unfortunately, the business model couldn't hold up & the entity again ceased production.

I got an opportunity to handle these at the International Shot Show! These are some of the finest Barlows I have ever handled and beautiful at that.

I have already pre-ordered one of each of these in Smooth Bone, American Chestnut and the SFO Wildebeest! I can't wait to get these beauties added into my herd of Canal Street Knives.

I can hardly wait to see what is next on the Canal Street Knife planning Table.

I can't wait to see these! I have a Pinch done in the Wildebeest and it's a great looking knife! I'll bet the Barlow is going to look even better.

Not quite ready yet guys, I'd say the first ones should be going out in about a week. They'll be stag handled and headed for AG Russell, after that the regular production ones'll be started.
