The Case Crossroads Sloped Ember Glow DymaLux Wood Barlow XR takes a timeless traditional pattern and gives it a distinctly modern edge. Released as part of Case's Crossroads Cut of the Month program, this limited-production Barlow combines premium materials, precision construction, and rugged styling in a compact package.
Its stonewashed satin S35VN stainless steel clip point blade delivers excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. An open nail nick provides straightforward access to the blade, preserving the traditional slipjoint character while complementing the knife's modern materials.
The standout feature is the Sloped Ember Glow DymaLux wood handle. Its rich, fiery appearance flows from the oversized G-10 bolster all the way to the end of the liner, creating a seamless visual transition that's both rugged and refined. A black G-10 liner adds contrast, while the screwed-together construction provides a solid, serviceable build designed for long-term performance.
At 3 3/8 inches closed, this Barlow has the compact proportions that made the pattern a classic while packing in upgraded materials and construction. The XX engraving on the cap end and the distinctive 20USA26 tang stamp further identify this knife as a special Crossroads release.
With limited production and an unreleased handle material featured through the Cut of the Month program, the Sloped Ember Glow Barlow offers collectors a chance to own a Case that's decidedly different from the standard lineup.
