I was perusing Ebay last week when a pair of Barlows popped up. I was shocked when there was not one but two of these rare Lambs. It was a seven day auction with 6 days left so now the waiting began. There were seven other people watching the auction so I thought they might go for big money. I talked to my friend David and asked if he wanted in on it since there were two of them and he said yes. Nobody had bid leading up to the end of the auction so I was worried that there might be a lot of action near the end. I put my bid in with less than a minute left of the auction and waited for the bids to come flying in at the end. Adrenaline pumping the auction ends and shockingly I was the only person to bid.
Sometimes you get lucky

Here they are, one will be getting shipped out to echoscout today or tomorrow.

Wow, congratulations Steve (and David), what a great score! As you say, sometimes you get lucky Not here, as there've been no European EB knife sales for about 15 years (I occasionally get a lucky break with some camera equipment or something! ) Those are two fantastic examples of Lambsfootery It's nice to see them together

I once picked up 3 Saynor Lambs at the same time (Charlie and Duncan have the others). They were nice, but not as nice as those CJ Barlows!

I also found 2 Unity Lambs together, our Australian friend Cambertree has the other

Fantastic photos Steve, it's great to see those 4 Lambsfoot Barlows together

 

[Jack Black]

I was just thinking that we haven't seen Dwight Fodderwing for a bit. Hope you're doing OK brother

 

[SteveC]

Fantastic photos Steve, it's great to see those 4 Lambsfoot Barlows together

Thanks, it's interesting that the C.J's didn't get the "Oil the Joints" stamp.

Yes, they could easily have been made on the same bench

That’s a special collection right there!

I always check eBay and Etsy for original lambs, I figured being in Aus they should pop up nearly regularly but I’m yet to see one in reasonable condition. And yet even rusted out and with worn blades they still ask a premium. If you find them at a good price never let them pass I say!
