WELCOME. ENJOY - 2 months ago
Noticed some new traffic this AM. I hope you enjoy what you find here. I’m Gary L. Barnes. Life long Craftsman. Professional since 1974. That’s been a mixture of Knives (mostly folders) and Air Rifle’s. I focused about 25 years on each. I have added a good group of Die Struck Jewelry. Ive made my own tool steel Dies since 1980. I’ve struck the Dies in Silver, Jewelry Grade Aluminum, aby barnespneumatic - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum

Thanks Kurt. I’ve been burning the candles at both ends. Haha. That’s why the wick goes clear thru, right??? Thanks for thinking of me. That warms my Oooollllldddd heart.

Lately; during the Christmas Season - 4 months ago
There’s been a lot of life in the shop in the past months. Do you recall this Lion Case? After it remained here for a while, Kelly decided that I should carry it. I’ve done so for at least a year, and I love it. My Pocket keeps it polished. The catch is true and Crisp. The catch on my 35 year old case is also true and clear. I carry them both. I used chalk board paint and creaby barnespneumatic - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum

Are you Human? Chances are it’s true. I like to prepare ahead. And once in a great while, I actually can do that. Oh what a feeling! To make someone happy, with a small gift that you laid back. It’s a wonderful thing. Here very close, is a prepared thread offering to sell some Pendants. Then, I’m gonna duplicate a thread ... here goes .... Masters Hope that took.

I want to show some closer detail. Anyone who has seen the actual work ... perhaps with magnification, has been very pleased. Let’s see how this batch of photos transfer ... These Pendants are far more work then understood. Please just consider the work of hand engraving/machining one of the several tool steel Dies required to imprint the artwork. Ok. Battery dying.

These are a few of the New Die Struck Barnes Pieces. I hand carved/engraved the Master Die from which the main body of each piece is constructed. These are a Jewelry Grade Aluminum Alloy. I often use this because it remains bright and clean. Sterling Silver, on the other hand; quickly turns dark with oxide. This Alloy is also quite light. A great mix of features. 1). The Cross.

Mosaic Story ... - 7 months ago
30-35 years ago, I made a series of Beautiful Damascus Daggers. There was quite a variety, but under one family (Mosaic Pearl with Wire Damascus Blades, and Cold Spun Copper Ferrels - some heavily Gold Plated by Gary). These were the last of my Grandmother’s years. She had a nice Town Home with an upstairs full Apartment.

Thank you Kurt! And I’m glad Diane was pleased to. The Ladies know quality. Kelly just ordered some new tee shirts for me. Some I have are more holes than shirt.

“Very Nice to Hear” During the visit of a friend, today; I got a great compliment from my wife. The newest Barnes Mosaic 97 was laying on the table. It became part of our conversation. At one point, Kelly looked at me with a rather serious look on her face. I wondered what was coming. She looked at me and said .... “I was really nervous about this knife”.

Note in pic 1 and 7, you can see the visible “Hamom”. The shadowy line which forms to delineate between the very hard edge steel and the spring temper blade back.

Re: How do I price these two beautiful rifles I have - 8 months ago
I have not dug into the filing cabinets yet. But let me give you some info I see and recall. Now. Basic Stuff. You have one Rendezvous 56 and one Bison 56. The main thing that is required of the Bison Class is that is can easily produce over 500 Foot Pounds of Muzzle Energy. This isn’t measured with round ball, since Round Ball are always one of the lightest shapes per any Caliber. Pic a goby barnespneumatic - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
