Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

Don't think I showed these before....especially not the Primble barlow.

 

The electricians above is from the 1920s.  I spoke to the VP of the company in New Jersey.  He said his grandfather had them made for their employees as part of a set of five knives they wore on their toolbelt.  I wish I could find the others!!

Thre two barlows are just a regular Imperial below and....

A Primble with that great Model number tang that includes their star.  Sweet.

 

The main of the tang is stamped JOHN PRIMBLE over BELKNAP over HDW. & MFG. CO.

Lee,

Try putting them in Got a knife I'm Looking for...  You never know, someone may have one they have gotten somewhere and are willing to part with it.  Having the entire set would be cool!
