Hello,
I picked up a Barlow knife at a flea market and on the bolsters it says, "Fulton Barlow". Can anyone tell me anything about this knife?

Hello,
All it says is, "high carbon steel U.S.A. "
It has steel bolsters. It seems to have plastic scales...could be bakelite? I'd like to try to replace them with some ebony I have but I don't want to alter it if it is something rare. Oh, one other thing I've noticed, the pivot pin is a set screw with a slot. That's all I can give for a description. Maybe i can get my camera out and take a pic? I appreciate the help.

Gee,
I was going through the $1.00 junk bins when I found it all covered in rust. I was gonna give it away.
