WOW Charlie What a CASE Barlow
I think you know that would make me very happy if it is in fact an Ulster I'll have to compare and contrast now! Thanks CharlieKevin, Ulster and Schrade made knives for Wolfertz. That sure looks like an Ulster.
Another statement only a Knife Knut would understandAn avid 10-dot collector made me an offer
Yeah, that Jigged Bone sure changes the look!! I've had a few bouts of seller's remorse!!WOW Charlie What a CASE Barlow
When you mentioned that I thought the Wolfertz bolsters did look more like Schrade, definitely not going to complain about thatHa ha!!
Here are Ulster made Barlows, Kevin!
They don't have lined Bolsters, but Schrades of that era do, so it could be Schrade made.

Charlie - Case never actually released a 10 dot Graddaddy barlow then?
I had to go back and look!When you mentioned that I thought the Wolfertz bolsters did look more like Schrade, definitely not going to complain about that
Nice Spey collection, Augie. Definitely hard to find!
Oh my goodness Charlie they are sublime.Robeson made a lot of Redbone Barlows, like several of this group! Robeson made them with semi-sunk joints and lots of "rounding" - very smooth in the pocket!
A beautiful saw cut Kevin!This C.F. Wolfertz is my favorite Barlow
Case made a handful of these as prototypes in 1970 (ten dots)
Thanks for posting these Charlie. AmazingSchrade Cut Co Barlows, (one Case at the top of the second pic) likely after WWI
Fine examples David!I know I've posted these before, but with all the big bad daddy barlows, and red bone being posted I couldn't resist getting another shot in
Wonderful additions John.Charlie, love that jigged bone Grand Daddy Case, that's got to be rare.
I've had a busy winter and not much time to post but I have still been acquiring knives, have to catch up. Added a bolster stamp I did not have, RCC for the Robeson Cutlery Co, nice saw cut on this knife and the handles are proud like the old English Barlows.

Also added a spey blade Diamond Edge, pretty sure Schrade made, vintage spey blade Barlows are hard to find but I have managed to acquire 5 so far.

Another Robeson picture! Shows the semi-sunk joints. Note how little of the Tang Corner shows, compared to the Queen-made example at the bottom!!

Nice Knives
Would I like a GEC rounded bolster barlow?
You Betcha!
Kevin, Ulster and Schrade made knives for Wolfertz. That sure looks like an Ulster or a Schrade.
I sure hope so, otherwise the one I carried last week for Red Bone Barlow Bonanza is an elaborate and well-crafted fake.Charlie - Case never actually released a 10 dot Graddaddy barlow then?
Unadulterated pristine perfection.
