Would singular of "Barves" be "Barve" or "Barf"? 

I'll go with barf.    Kind of like the plural of self or shelf.

Examples of Irregular Plural Nouns

Some irregular nouns take on the plural form by first changing the last letter of the word before adding “s.” Words that end in “f” are a good example of this case. To make such a word plural, you change the “f” to “ve” and add an “s.”

Irregular plural nouns that end in ves:

More than one barf = barves
More than one elf = elves
More than one calf = calves
More than one knife = knives
More than one loaf = loaves
More than one shelf = shelves
More than one wolf = wolves
More than one loaf = loaves
