On SALE again..Sharpnshinyknives wrote: ↑Mon Jun 01, 2020 1:34 am Shepherd Hills has a killer deal on a Case single blade barlow in antique smooth bone for June 1st only, 35.99. That’s 40% off the regular price.
Here is a link, not sure it will work if you aren’t signed up to get these emails but here it is: https://www.casexx.com/CustomerAppreciationDay/
FYI.
Go under Barlow patterns.. Not the above link this time.. Are you sure those handles are Wood?Quick Steel wrote: ↑Sat Jun 06, 2020 2:14 pm For some reason the wooden handles on this Imperial are extra smooth/slick which I like. The main blade is a bit of a nail breaker but this is a nice Barlow, everything tight and snappy.

Under magnification no grain shows up. It must indeed be plastic. Thank you for the catch.No problem my friend.Quick Steel wrote: ↑Sat Jun 06, 2020 4:01 pm Now that you raise the issue David, I believe you are correct. And that explains the extra smoothness I commented on.
Sharpnshinyknives wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 1:31 am Alright I lost my mind when I bid on this one the other day. I tend to do that when I buy one for my own collection. But as you can see this is one drop dead gorgeous barlow. Made by Queen for Robeson, this was a limited production run of just 200. I believe these were ordered by SMKW. Brown saw-cut bone with the engraved bolsters. Just one of the best looking Barlows of all time. Funny when I first starting collecting knives I didn’t really like Barlows. But now they are the most collected pattern in my collection. I have grown to love them. I ooh and awe when I see them now. I had to catch my breath on this one, it’s at the top of my list for best looking Barlows.
David, I paid as much for this as a brand new TC Barlow, not the kind you get on Ebay but from the dealers. Honestly I think it’s as nice as any TC barlow that I have. If I were to sell it, I would be asking for about as much as as TC Barlow brings. Thanks for the compliments.edge213 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 1:45 amSharpnshinyknives wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 1:31 am Alright I lost my mind when I bid on this one the other day.

My oh my. This is one beautiful Barlow.
I've never seen one like this.
I love it!!
That is special, and i mean special. If you were to sell it, which i'm sure you won't, but if you did, they would be lined up around the block to buy it. Well done.Sharpnshinyknives wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 2:02 amDavid, I paid as much for this as a brand new TC Barlow, not the kind you get on Ebay but from the dealers.

You're welcome, Mark.Sharpnshinyknives wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 11:47 am Steve, you got one of the better Case Stag Barlows. They don’t often match the stag as well as that one. That’s a beautiful knife.
Thanks for the compliments on the RCC.
Thanks, I think they are such high quality because Bill Howard was in charge at Queen at the time. Yours is a beauty also. Notice that the stag has 2 full blades, I think that is the only one that does and there were only 100 made.Sharpnshinyknives wrote: ↑Sun Aug 23, 2020 8:55 pm WOW! John, nice line up of Barlows. I especially like all the RCC’s that you have. I hope I can get all of those some day.
