Seeing the old Barlow's brought back memories. I toted them for years.
In Locust Grove we had an old Black man that made some beautiful gun stocks with a Barlow and a broken coke bottle. I loved to watch him work.
He made one stock for me. Wish I still had the rifle, but some fine young man broke into my house and stole it along with the few others I had at the time.

I believe this is correct. Your friend really likes the Canoe pattern. You can click on the links below for more info on how to date a Case, and identify the handle material.

This is what I carried today,,, as Fats Domino called it,, Blue Monday.
There is a short story with this one too. I spied it at a pawn shop and they were asking $25. I gave it a once over and it had broken handle scales, was missing the badge and one backspring was flat wore out and would not even attempt to engage with the blade. I passed on the knife for a couple of weeks, but went back later and offered $10,,,, and we settled on $15.
Knowing this 30 year old knife would not be under warranty, I filled out the repair form on Case's website requesting a price to make the non warranty repair, but stipulated that I wanted to keep the blades as they were actually dated 1991. A couple of weeks later they emailed me advising that the backspring repair would be considered warranty. I assume they replaced the scales because they had to tear them up to get to the warranty repair. So,,,,, for $15 plus $7 priority shipping, I now have a factory reworked, 1991 Masonic badged mini trapper,,, and couldn't be happier with the results and their customer service.

Here are few more of the older pocket knives I have. First one is an eighties Henkel & Henkel I've probably gutted skinned close to hundred deer with. Broke the red pick bone scale on it back in the 80s and took it apart and put elk horn scales on it. Lost it once by leaving on bumper of my truck at our hunting lease, but a friend found it in the road 1/2 mile away the next week. Had to take it apart again to clean up. Only carry it when hunting.
This is another old one that I found in my wife's grandfather's stuff. It is a blue grass Barlow.
Last one is an 1981 case copperhead I picked up years ago.

It's an Uncle Henry kinda Friday....In addition to a pocketknife, I usually carry a fixed blade of some sort too, in case somebody brings a slab of ribs, or a pound cake to work...
