Barlow Black Handle Double Blade Folding Knife

I ordered two so I could have one for me and one for my brother, just like Dad used to have.When I got them, I could hardly open the big blade on one, and barely open the little blade on the other. I do believe that the reason is because there isn't anything that is square on them - every angle you look at from there is something that isn't square on it. To be honest with you, I don't feel safe in opening or closing them as they are just so stiff that they could slip and I will get cut. Then again, that probably won't happen as there is no real edge to them, so I will probably just get dented. Though, I probably would get tetanus, they were that dirty coming out of the box. They are also proudly marked 'Pakistan' on one of the blades, so I guess I shouldn't be too suprised at their quality. Not to mention that they sent me 'rosewood' handled knives, not the black ones listed on the webpage.Don't bother buying them, these things are junk and I am tossing them in the recycle bin when I get home - I just can be bothered to try to get a refund as it isn't worth my time.Truly these are garbage products.

I wanted a knife to carry around to open the occassional box. This one has become more than that. Perhaps because I carry it every day, the blade has become very easy to open and my teenage children have begun to fight over who gets it when I'm gone. I didn't intend on buying an heirloom, but I suppose I did.

I'm a fisherman for a living and I have brought meny barlow for my job and this is the first one I'm going to throw over bord you can even open it it's junk I never complain but it pisses me off

This picture is of one I found while metal detecting, it was only there for 9 months

The nail marks are located on same side of the blades so it's extremely challenging to open the bigger blade without opening the smaller one.

Great Item
