Thanks Papa Bones. I will be posting many more photos as time goes, and I do have some very unique barlows in my set!

Thanks thanks thanks, but credit should go to Gunstock Jack, or Barry as he's known, since he commissioned it. And Evan Esnyx for the fine modification/customization work They are the men. I was just lucky to get one and thanks again Barry and Evan.

That is the ultimate commitment.

Picked up a nice lot of vintage Barlows including a couple etched Schrade Cut Co's.

Awesome Choice. Gotta love those short line Camillus!!

Lovely.

I snagged myself a Wostenholm IXL Barlow this morning.

Sellers pic..... it looks pretty good I guess.


It needs a good clean-up.

Looks like it has lived a full life with a lot left. I bet it looks pretty good after clean up as well.

It looks great! Nice pickup.

To answer the OP directly, I have never had any "love" for the Barlow knives, however, I do have some sentimental attachment as I had Barlows as a kid.
Bought at the local service station, from a card hanging behind the counter, for a dollar if I remember correctly. They do fit in with my hoard of pocket knives, because I prefer to gather in "working men's" knives, rather than high-end collectables.

Neat old one, LF&C single clip with checkered hard rubber covers.
