Ulster Barlow with Amber Wormgroove Bone Handles
I don't come across these Ulsters too often and this one was in decent shape (steel bolsters). The larger than normal bolsters are a nice touch.
I cleaned it up a bit, put some new wormgroove handles on it and polished it up. I left the blades in their "as found" condition. There's some carbon staining and some very mild pitting but its otherwise a solid knife and should make a respectable EDC. Thanks for looking.

Re: Ulster Barlow with Amber Wormgroove Blades
LOL!
Thanks for pointing that out! Wormgroove blades would be a neat trick. I’ve corrected the post.

He obviously has a staff of highly trained and well paid worms on his payroll. That really does look great!

That looks great Jeff.
Though I am not normally a big fan of wormgroove bone, it looks quite nice on that Barlow!
