It is definitely growing on me. I have a couple of other Barlow but never really warmed up to them. I am starting to see why my grandad only needed one knife with his Case Barlow.

Rotten, Both your knives are distinguished by fine looking scales.

Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
You boys have sure "hit the ball out of the park" on these ones...
Geo those are two i would be proud to carry every day...
That's one great looking camillus QS...
Big Homer you knock my socks off...
Man that bone sure looks "knice".
I tink for tadays carry will be my huge new Camillus Titanium lockback that i got dirt cheap. It's been crying out "carry me" for awhile now. Just other knives have been taking up all pocket time.
Lunch time now boys...

Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
An old Kutmaster my Grampy gave me almost 50 years ago.
Not the prettiest, but she'll take a keen edge. The master rolls smooth on the spring, no snap, but no wobble, either. The other two blades w&t decent enough, with no wobble on 'em.
Guess I'd carry it more if it was "pretty", but she'll be sure to have occasional time in the pocket now and again.

To quote the old wise sage Forrest Gump 'pretty is as pretty does'. And that old knife is a long way from ugly.

Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
Mmmmmm great knives guys!
Well i have been carryin' the big boy in the back pocket this afternoon.
But i'm feelin' that's not enough, so i dropped in 3 more of my favorites,
Bays U.S.A. barlow. She's unique, secondary blade is a warnclif not pen. No photo, bummer...
My 76' Queen trapper again.
Paul A. Henckels Gents penknife.
Hope ya enjoy.

Re: WHAT ARE YOU CARRYIN RIGHT NOW? WHAT IS YOUR FAV EDC?
Does the pattern # end in 17 or 12? If the former, it dates your knife to 2017. While I didn't pay much attention to the last 66 run, I do remember a hemlock bone offering. It wasn't terribly long ago, 2017 sounds about right.geocash wrote:2012 Northfield (GEC) #661317

How's the F&F on that bad fella? I haven't gotten any modern folders from Camillus yet, so I'm not too familiar with their quality. The contemporary USA Schrades often had issues so I am a little gunshy.WillyCamaro wrote:I tink for tadays carry will be my huge new Camillus Titanium lockback that i got dirt cheap.

Very cool story and very cool knife. I would treasure that one forever. It's hardly an ugly duckling, and it's got plenty of life left.Steve Warden wrote:An old Kutmaster my Grampy gave me almost 50 years ago.
