My wife gave me my allowance...

 

[Misplaced Hillbilly]

We’re looking for a quantity of something, not just a REPRESENTATION of the number.

I likes me a challenge btw

This one is going to be hard to count, but trust me, there are 20 bulls in this picture and a soda scout.

What other knife would I use?

I was going to give you bit of good-natured ribbing for writing out 19 19’s on a piece of paper (even thought it’s completely within the rules), but then I realized you used your ‘19 BF Knife and, well… well done, sir.

This one is going to be hard to count, but trust me, there are 20 bulls in this picture and a soda scout.

I think that (with the exception of a few members ) we can operate on the honor system here when necessary. Great photo, thanks for playing!

I'll admit I'm one of those guys that'll thoroughly read the rule book, looking for what it DOESN'T say

You might also count the number of 'by-products' from those bulls That ought to be a tidy number for later on...

Barrett, congrats on passing the century mark for GEC knife ownership; impressive family photo!!
Thanks for the generous and fun GAW to celebrate the milestone!
May I enter for Joshua @JTB_5 , please?

I like counting, and I'm fairly good at it, but I'm not very good at quickly taking photos and getting them in a condition to be posted, so I don't know how much I'll actually participate in the GAW festivities. But here's something I whipped up for 20 this morning. This photo of a copper-bolstered Rough Rider clip/spey pen knife with grooved buffalo horn covers includes 20 metal eyelets for shoe laces (not counting the 2 fabric loops near the top of each shoe):


ETA: Looks like we're already past 20 and starting on 21, which just goes to show how right I was in assessing my ability to get pics posted in a timely manner! As further proof, I'll also post another "20" I took this morning; this one features a Victorinox Solo (I think they're officially called Pioneer 1 now) with an icosahedral die having 20 triangular faces.

Thanks for joining in GT! At least you were only one number behind!

Well done, well done.

I think you’d be fine to post that (if we ever make it to 32! ).

Ok, now we need a couple more posts for 21. Let’s keep this thing moving!

 

[JohnDF]

Well played.

 

[btb01]

I wasn’t sure when I started this if I should play along or let y’all have all the fun, but at the pace we’re going I might as well join in. Here’s a black jack with an unlikely blackjack.

21 pips (as long as you don’t count the ones under the numbers, which you shouldn’t, because that’s not how cards work).
