It reminds me of a Klein 1550-11, which I used several of for electrical work:
I wouldn't mind having one of those.

They were decent work knives. The best attribute was that the carbon steel blade was fairly hard. They held an edge for a good amount of time even though they were constantly in contact with copper and aluminum.

I assume that what's being sold now is the same as what was being sold 20 to 30 years ago.

Do they just ship to directly?  Bypass the middleman!

I just ordered my Spalted Beech A Wright today.  And no, I am not even going to try looking up that latest arrival of yours.  Maybe tomorrow!😜

It has been a while, you can share your BARLOWS😎
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!
