JoKr, What a wonderful group of Barlows you have. I am supposing those 3 blades represent all of the variations there are. And of corse the stag covers look great as Bulldog covers almost always do. Kindly continue to share your collection with us.

Excellent and nicely photographed as well. I am wondering if you have complete sets of other Bulldog patterns.

All that Bulldog stag is great. I love the way they run the bark all the way to the bolsters which, as I have learned from Mark (Sharpnshineyknives) requires more time and effort than removing the bark from the front and allowing the underlying white to show.
Your first photo of the Trapper is a real calendar shot. Beautiful.

The square bolsters really set off the richly colored bone. Sort of like the chrome on a '59 Cadillac El Dorado. I think Bulldogs offer exceptional value, i.e. high quality at a reasonable price. Too many collectors have missed out on these fine knives.

...and like them classic cars, they sure are nice to admire! Sometimes I feel they are quite pricey for me to collect but then I look into buying other vintage marks and end up being hesitant and unsure of what I'm doing. Collecting most of my Bulldog knives hasn't made me nervous yet.

Some of my favorites. Featured here are Elephant Toes. A large and small Stag, an MOP, and a Mammoth Ivory. The Mammoth Ivory features a Wolverine on the blade, as it is a club knife from the Wolverine Knife Collectors Club. I'm a member.
