Case Barlow Custom J.Kidd - Like a piece of Jewelry
Posted: Thu Feb 16, 2023 6:42 pm
I've been scooping up Case knives (and others) for over 20 years, and last year picked this up from Wild Horse Customs -- a Joshua Kidd custom abalone and turquoise with silver flakes. Engraved bolsters with worked everything. I typically buy knives I would carry and use, even if some don't ever come off the shelf, if you know what I mean. Never bought one that is literally like a piece of jewelry. I fell in love with it, and continue to question my sanity as to why I'd buy something that expensive. I mean, yes, I have paid similar for some GEC knives, or even vintage "never used" pocket knives ... but nothing like this. Here on AAPK, I doubt I'm the only one who has picked up something like this....but I still questioning my sanity! It is 1 of 1 --- with J.Kidd signed on a tang (not shown).
