Nice long pull spey, Un-C!!
That Barlow has the longest pull I've seen, SteveC!!

Camillus produced some artful cutlery!! Look at the fine jigging on that small Congress Penknife!!
Shown with a regular 3 5/8" Cattle knife for scale!!

Nice one, Un-C!! Schrade sure made a beautiful Punch (and Knife!) back then!!

You sure don't see many long pull spey blades, Un-Chained, thanks for the look-see.

Thanks Charlie and Jeff !!
I really like the pulls and how tidy everything is when folded.

Charlie, I love the darker color of the bottom one in that photo. I’m assuming it was made by Camillus, but any idea who it was for?

Beautiful Camies Charlie !

Charlie, I think it's the same blade used on the US Air Corp utility I have.

Not sure! Could be Craftsman (Sears)? There is not any discernible etch.

Fabulous Knife, Steve.

Thanks for the comparisons, Steve!!
I see some variation in length of blade, but a strong philosophy in Long Pull Length!!
