Joe,

Let`s see that baby with the blades open

[FRJ]

Hi Miller Bro's. ........ Here ya go.

[edgy46]

FRJ Thats a great looking toe

[fergusontd]

Craftsman Barlow. I don't know the year of the knife. I don't think it has been used or sharpened! ftd

[FRJ]

Thanks edgy,
it's very pocket friendly; nice and slim.( 4 3/16" ) I love that piece of brass at the hip of the secondary. I have sharpend it just enough just to be sharp on a fine stone. Don't want to take too much away, but need to carry a sharp knife. A good knife should be respected, and that it is sharp will help insure that.

basser5, that knife of yours is a beauty, very fine.

fergusontd, that's a great looking barlow. unsharpened to boot. I wonder who made it?

[vikingdog]

Great knife Joe, I like that you're carrying it too. When do you reckon it was made?

[FRJ]

Thanks Mike,
I don't have any idea when it was made. I wish I knew. Probably neve find out a real precise date.
Odd thing; there were pictures of the tang that had a stamping that I guess declared this to be a "zenith". In taking these pictures I remembered that, but strangly, the stamping isn't on this knife. Huh. I knew the postal service was a little scruffy, but I didn't think it would take a stamp off a tang. You don't suppose someone did me bad on e-bay do ya?
Seriously, I don't get it. I'd take a pill and die before I would do that to someone.To live well is the best revenge!!!

[Miller Bro's]

Joe,

Thanks for the pictures

I really like that knife, not much wear on them blades for the age of the knife

[FRJ]

Thanks MB, I'm very greatful to own such a thing. It was a big outlay for me, but it just seemed right.
I carry it proudly. (from time to time )

[buckeyefan]

Beautiful knife FRJ

Is she as heavy as a Case or GEC toe?? I'd have to ware a belt to carry one of them

Marty

[FRJ]

Marty,
that's a good question. I do have four other toes. I checked them out for weight. I have a Union and a K-Bar toe with bone scales and pretty robust bolsters. Theyr'e kind of heavy. I have a 10 dot Case with wood scales and more refined bolsters and it seems to weigh about the same as the Marshall Wells. And a K-Bar with plastic scales seem to be between bone and wood scales in terms of weight. Maybe it's time for a digital scale, eh. Thanks for asking.

[Oman]

Decided I wanted some soddies. These are all 3-5/8", Moore Maker, 2 Queens, Case and Bulldog. Looks like I have a couple of extra yellows, so if anyone needs................shoot me a PM. These are fun to collect, need a bone or stag next.

Dang JR, now that's dedication to the knifin' hobby!
In the hospital, yet you make the effort to share some cool knife pics with your buds!

Personally, I'd be too busy whinin' and snivelin' and complaining about the food....

Thanks!
