Re: Knives Made Before The Year 1960
Triple F, I like those Imperials as well. I have one like yours but without the advertising. I didn't expect much when I bought it, but soon it turned into a regular carry. It's a nice size, big and solid for it's dimensions, and sharpens up nice. These knives are on ebay all the time for a song, and I can't imagine why anyone would want to buy a new cheap knife with a fake old name on it when they could get one of these for the same price and have a better made knife with an authentic stamp.

The Needham Bros with the hexagonal bolster is a very distinctive knife. The swedged razor main blade adds to the effect. I never heard of Needham Bros or saw a knife quite like this one before. Great knife!

Re: Knives Made Before The Year 1960
Thanks!
I call that one the "Cadillac" of Barlow knives. Besides everything you mentioned it also has Square joint construction, long nail pulls and Stag handles!
What else could you possibly want in a Barlow knife??

Re: Knives Made Before The Year 1960
WOW! Paul. That is a classy looking knife. Can't find anything I don't like about it. Really different grind on main blade than I've seen on other folders.
