Hello all! I just registered here as a newcomer and have been collecting and using knives for everyday use and when fishing & hunting since I was a young lad. I have also back in the 90,s worked as a seller in a gun store. My particular interest are in german knives suck as Puma-Werk. American knives, Case old Schrade and Cripple Creep has also been in my possession.
I found this knife in my drawer and it has been there for a long time. I have never examined it more thorough but now I have! My initial feeling when i bought at an auction was some cheap, low quality knife. I now realize it's really old an I found some information about the Barnsley Bros company. However pictures of Barnsley knives or similar knives are rare.
I hope someone have some more information, maybe some pictures. The knife must be more than 100 years old. It is really exciting to now more about this knife.
For me it is an american classic knife and it is quite big, measuring unfolded, 7.9 in (20cm) folded 4.5in (11.5cm)

That's a really nice old knife, it might be worth you also posting a pic or two in the 'Old Knives' sticky at the top of the page :thumbup:
