GEC #77 Medium Barlow Impressions

This was one time I was sorry to have 4 choices! Man that was hard.

That Blackwood just spoke to me. It was too classy to pass up. It’s the only one with a color coordinated bolster! ;) I plan to keep it a loooong time, so the durability of the wood over the bone was a slight edge for me. I’ve had some old sawcut develop a small crack.

Whew! Congrats to all. Nice cap to a busy work day.
 
Sawcut Bone on a Barlow is representative of one of those most perfect of pairings so I knew that despite my fondness for black wood/ebony, I was going to end up with sawcut in one color or another.

Red (second only to black) is still my color and even though I am a bit worried that GEC's propensity towards washed out dyeing as of late might have a negative impact, I had to go with red sawcut. Here's to hoping that I get a good red example.

I kepth thinking to myself, I have a 14 in Ebony, a Waynorth lamb inebony and a forum knife coming in Ebony would be a sweet set...but jeez that saw cut will look good with my other saw cut 77s.

That Amber sawcut looks fantastic! Looks like it's 100 years old already!
