Well, it looks like the Bladeforums Barlow will be produced after the Rendezvous.
I will add information to this thread as stuff occurs , but don't expect too much until September or so. I will try to make this the only discussion thread, to keep confusion down to a murmur, so I will close the Poll thread, and the older "Will There Be a 2017 Forum Knife" threads (if tomsch will cooperate here???)
Anyway, here is a tidbit: Bill insists the front tang must have Tidioute on it to be consistent with the TC on the Bolster, so has devised the following stamping for the pile side of the tang:
FAQs answered:
- #15 pattern
- Sheepfoot blade with nail nick and swedge
- 1095 carbon steel, with all-steel bolsters and liners
- plain Blade (no etch)
- Natural Canvas Micarta handles
- 500 knives to be made
- prices will soon be established
- an order thread will be established as we get closer to the time of production
