Bear & Son Cutlery

This Large Barlow is part of the Bear and Son line of traditional pocket knives made with modern techniques. The blade is made from the fan-favorite high-carbon stainless steel. The handles are made from the classic and comfortable genuine India stag. Bear and Son Cutlery's passion shows in these folding knives based on memories of days past when quality was more important than quantity. Each of these handcrafted slipjoint knives is made with old-world techniques with the best modern materials to create tools to fit today's most demanding tasks

Bear and Son has a skilled and experienced workforce capable of performing many of the extra-hand operations that go into the making of their products. While some companies only assemble parts brought from various suppliers and put their names on the product, they do everything in-house from building their own blanking dies to heat treating, grinding and assembly, and hand finishing their products. These steps ensure that Bear and Son Cutlery is of excellent quality and a real value for both the dealer and the consumer.

Really close
Could have been great. Knife is beautiful but the fit and finish is poor. The scales don’t match the bolster on the corners very well. The scales pins were proud. I had to file 2 of them down. One pin stuck out a good 1/64 inch. Doesn’t sound like much but it caught in my fingers and hand. Maybe the dullest knife out of the box that I have ever bought. A little time on the sharp maker and I got a good working edge. High carbon steel? What exactly is that steel? 5 more minutes at the factory and it could have been great. Come on Bear and Sons do better. I shouldn’t have to finish your knife for you.
