Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Chain Damascus
Something that I have oftened wondered is whether Parker ever used chain damascus barrels. I have never seen a picture of or mention of them. I kind of find that surprising, in that they were used by other high quality US makers who used other Damascus patterns that look identical to the barrels being imported by Parker. The chain barrels seem to be very popular with collectors. I personally have always really liked their look, more so than other higher grade damascus patterns. I have no idea of their relative quality just their look and apparent rarity.

I like the pattern, too. I have a couple of Smith grade 4s that have it.
