The first knife I ever saw my Grand Father with was a small Barlow. I think it had two blades but my memory fades a little. Later on he would carry a Stockman. {That ought to make Steve happy}. He would carry a pocket knife and a fixed blade, {the same way I do now} when he went into the woods, to hunt or fish.  I have a couple of his fixed blades but those folders are gone.

Those small regular Barlows have been around for so long, we had twin daughters and I got them each a Barlow for their first knife. Still have them. To say nothing of the Russell Barlows you bought at the grocery off a card. Yes, they are a definite item in knife collecting.

I prefer the Grand Daddy Barlow pattern too but I also like the small ones. The small ones are a good size to take fishing, cutting string or making a sandwich.

I've got perhaps 5 or 6.  Just bought a Rough Rider Grand Daddy  Sawcut Bone on a whim yesterday.  Without a doubt, I like the Grand Daddy best. It is my trapper alternative!

I am thinking about starting a Mini Group for Barlows. Large and small, and of every brand. What do ya'll think? Is there some Barlow collectors out there?

All the teams are winners, to me. If they play hard and don't give up, they are winners. They can be out classed, under sized and hurt. If they have heart, they are winners.

  Poor Ivars is talking about a knife and we are talking football. It must be in the air...lol

Very true Ivars.

Oh yeah!  Well I graduated from University of Illinois at Chicago -  They didn't have a football team.  So I went to University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign for graduate school!  They didn't have a football team either (although they have people in uniforms getting trounced by schools that do have football teams!  

And now that they got rid of Chief Illiniwek, they can stop calling me for donations! Go ARMY! (who could also use a football team)

Bring back the Chief!
