Glad it made it!

I haven't seen one before but it sounds cool. I have seen a couple two blade knives with a bottle/can opener secondary but never a Barlow. I know some of the past WWII British Army clasp knives had such a blade. I would think the a barlow with such a blade would be somewhat rare! Great find.

@@KnifeChatswithTobias thanks! I mainly collect the more unusual variations of various slipjoints. Though thats one of my more unusual ones so far.

@@shadowstalker130666, I love the out of the ordinary knife. Always on the look out for them.

BD H, the Hur probably bought the aleyexpress. They also sell fake AG Russell. I won’t buy from that company. They’re counterfeiters.

Clones or copies are good for trying out a pattern. No different than buying a Rough Ryder Trapper before buying that Case or Great Eastern.

@@KnifeChatswithTobias I recently bought a Rough Ryder Canoe and it is such a good knife that I have to ask myself why spend more for anything else. That said, I'll still be buying a Case Tribal Lock in the near future.

Thanks. I'm still baffled that some knife collectors, including those who have numerous high end knives, don't have issues with actual counterfeits, right down to bogus markings and look-a-like boxes!

William DeRoker, companies really don’t help you when you get a counterfeit. They tell you to buy from an authorized dealer. This is all on me. I have no issues with Ontario not honoring counterfeits.

Yeah, I was pretty stupid. I sort of knew I was screwed as soon as I realized it was coming from China!

Lol we've all done that at least once in our lives. To bad there's not more honest people out in the world

I'm with ya about flipper knives, to me they seem like a kids toy. Knife blade deployment in a flash is cringy if you ask me.

I couldn’t have put it in better words it’s childlike. But I do like my 110 automatic very much just afraid at my age of doing time I don’t want to get out at 62 years old because you gonna do Five years Upstate

True. They only become a counterfeit when they label themselves as the original! That’s when I have a problem.

I hate to break the news to you but Case, Queen, and GEC knives are also routinely counterfeited, especially Case. GEC is not as routinely counterfeited as Case is because GECs tend to be noticeably more different than other traditional knives, especially those out of China. Case knives also have a longer tradition of being the "Knife Collector's Knife". (not to mention just about every trapper that is made in China is built n the Case frame!) The most common way to counterfeit or fake Case, Queen, and GEC knives is to "fake" older knives that are scarce and hard to find. Often the counterfeiter will artificially age and more modern knife and and modify the tang stamps. Some times it is matter of swapping blades or building a "Frankenstein" parts knife. I've seen so-called Case knives that have an old Case blade that was modified to fit into an inexpensive Imperial handles with the shield swapped out! That one was easy to spot. Others are more sophisticated. That's said, I think you correct that it easier to counterfeit modern folders and their is good money in it. The knives are easier to take apart down to the smallest screw and then copy. Traditional knives are hand made and the tangs are normally stamped and not PAD printed. Often every blade will be stamped. The stamping is normally done before the heat treating so it is also harder to fake. But counterfeiting still remains a problem. But the more likely problem is selling a parts knife as an original.

@@KnifeChatswithTobias Goodness Tobias I'd no idea! I suppose where there's a dishonest buck to be made there will always be enough scoundrels around to see an opportunity. I've only ever bought GEC and Case new from respectable dealers, hence this comes as news to me.
