Is anyone using one of these as an edc?

I wouldn't want to lose it at that price! I use the TEW knives in the kitchen for filleting and butchering, they hold a good edge but were all <£20.

Thats a lot of dosh for a little folder and I personally don't think any folder is worth even half of that price but its your cash so go for it if it floats your boat.

Nice looking Barlow. But they can be had for much less (even if in a different brand)

Spend around £20 on another EDC.

Have a look over on BB. Russell White makes similar knives for that sort of price, and they are a one off.

I have used Taylors EW kitchen knives for years and can vouch for their build quality but that seems a very hefty price even for such a handsome edc.
I agree with Rob.Check out BB.You may be able to commission one for that sort of money and then you get exactly what you want.
As they'd say in Sheffield though, "It's thy brass so please thesen."
Please post pics of whatever you do end up with.
Cheers , Simon

I have the double bladed DI version and thought long and hard before getting it, but it's build quality, materials, security of the blades when open and that "something" you only get when handling one made it worth every penny spent for me.
I have owned many expensive fixed blade knives and folders and this one is my favourite EDC'able folder so far.

There could be a reason for the similarity you've noticed...

try the rough rider knives from heinnie's they r the same style but miles cheaper, a good knife for the price too.

cheers andrew.

These might work for you at a much better price www.thefind.com/sports/info-barlow-knife

At least some of them or at a better price.

That's a nice looking folder!

I can't comment on whether it's worth the listed price but one of the folders I've described here might be an alternative:

Thanks, I'm glad to here they aren't just nice to look at. Do you find the double blade much more useful than a single?
