Looks like it was a mechanical display that you could refill so the first but cost more than the refills probably did.

Ahhh...I missed the part about the mechanical movement, makes more since now.

Well, I can't believe it's taken all these years to pickup one of the HB toothpicks with candy stripe handles, but I did finally manage to find a pretty decent one. It's not mint, but it doesn't miss it by very much.
WB

Picked up another HB Barlow. It cleaned up better then I thought it was going to, judging from the pics in the auction.
I posted this one in the IKCO thread, but I reckon this is the more suitable thread for it. 46'-56' Imperial Super Kamp King.

Very nice WB!

Hey Trevor, how's it goin' ol' buddy!! Thank You!!

WB

Well done WB!! Looks like you found a pretty hard to find Barlow in that orange pearl wrap.

Great lookin' old Hammer you have there WB! I'd say she cleaned up reeeeeeeeal nice.!

Thanks Guys! I didn't realize until recently that they actually produced the Barlows in 2 sizes. One is 3" the other 3-3/8". A way to quick reference them is, the 3-3/8" model has Barlow stamped on the bolster, the bolster on the 3" is plain. Which now puts me back up to 3 known patterns I need to complete my collection of cracked ice shells.

I have been picking up some fixed blades lately cause there hasnt been many decent folders around but I did grab this Colonial Jack at the flea market this weekend

Knice gino!

WB

I know that took some work Joe, we've both been there. But it turned out amazing!

Great looking display Joe!

Here is a bunch of shell handled knives and in second pic some shells in with some cracked ice (sorry for the crappy pics)

That is an impressive collection Gino!

I'll say Gino, you have been busy on here over the past year.

Thanks Dale and Perry, I just added this one to my collection, its on its way here.

Good lookin Gino! Little later made Trapper.

I just picked up this Hammer shell. I havent seen these handles before.
