This is a 4 1/2" Great Grandaddy Barlow with filework , hardwood and buffalo bone(?) handles, brass inlays and a Damascan blade(all the bells and whistles). There is no makers mark, but I believe it came from Glasgow originally. It was reworked in Australia, went to America, was recently bought back by me from the US and shipped back to Aus.I wish I travelled as much!!

Comment by Gregory.J on June 20, 2012 at 21:28 There is no makers mark or country of origin anywhere on the knife, Robert, thanks for the suggestion that it might be German, that's interesting. It is one of my favorites. Dirk got it from a bloke in Glasgow in very rough condition, and restored it to mint plus...
Very nice, I love it. It looks to be a German designed knife, by the blade shape and handle shape. That's just my guess.
