I may make myself a little linerlock barlow next. I don't have a pocket knife.

Very nice Don!
Every time I make myself a folder to carry I end up selling it.
The ones I'm able to keep I don't want anyone to see!

Hi, Frank!

Yep, I don't like to do the same thing twice, but these two were ordered together. So I built them together. I love the style of these big old flippers, but of course I have no use for them. I have enough trouble keeping my pants up.

Now I've got a little barlow linerlock started and about halfway finished. The next one will probably be a slipjoint. Maybe a trapper.

I've even been thinking of building a fixed blade knife!

I still have a large photo in my shop of the beautiful barlow linerlock you made. And of course, the same photo is still on my website. How about you making another? What have you been doing?
