Case Tested XX Big Barlow — Bone Handle
This Big Barlow was made by W.R. Case & Sons, tang-stamped "Case Tested XX" — a stamp used circa 1920–1940. The Barlow pattern, with its distinctive oversized single bolster, is one of the oldest and most iconic American pocketknife designs.
The knife has bone handle scales with a nickel bolster and bare-head cap end. Total length is 8 1/2 inches open, 5 inches closed.
The blade has worn down with use and shows noticeable wobble, with an okay snap.
