Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[Modoc ED]

Aww, whut duz he know???

I've said that more than a couple of times too Charlie.

I get confused all the time about the spelling! The old blade stamps and etches often say Lamb Foot! Worthy of a little renewed discussion I'd say!!

Been discussed many times in this thread, and indexed Old blade etches almost always say 'Lamb Foot' or 'Lambfoot', catalogues say 'Lamb Foot', 'Lambfoot' or 'Lambsfoot'. Sheffield cutlers always says 'Lambsfoot'

FWIW, LVG4 has it Lambfoot and that dirty word Sheepfoot

Aww, whut duz he know???

Good Saturday morning to all Guardians! There was no dog training today so I got some yard work and house stuff done. When I checked the mail house, my Waynorth ebony lambfoot was waiting for me...thank you, USPS for speedy, safe delivery. Was waiting on it for a family photo session. Wanted to do it outside but Mother Nature is not cooperating. Same with the shot of the yucca.
This the first Gabon Ebony knife for me and like everyone has said, it is special!
Here's the family line up...

Congratulations Preston, great additions to a fantastic line-up

 

[Jack Black]

Certainly went through some varied terrain today

Good Morning, Dwight. I think that stag wins the "deep groove" award", it's so cool looking.

Thank you my friend.

You did, thank you! I'll have to take a new photo of it. I only have pics of it posing with some non-lambsfeet.

Great rosewood HHB Rachel. I love that bush! If I was a snake I'd wanna live there and that bush would be my "MONKEY BARS".

And a Good Morning to you! Fine lookin' Harts Head

Thanks OG. Fantastic triangle of stagalicious stunners.

Thank you, Chin. So much fun traveling through your post. I appreciate the effort that it takes to create it,

dc50 Relieved that you resolved your bent tip issues. Looks great.

@Lee Tigner Welcome Lee. I too have developed a fondness for the older Sheffield knives.

@OLd_gUY _ A superb image of your trio, OG.

Good Afternoon Guardians. Hope everyone’s day is a good one.

Welcome AL.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend Our weather forecasters got it wrong again, so I ended up carrying a lot of spare clobber, but had a great day nonetheless, even if one of the pubs I called at on my 10-mile hike had recently closed

Beautiful scenery shots with magnificent HHB's Jack! Sounds like a pretty good hike.


I carry a lambsfoot...
cause I love em... and cause it's summer time...
and the living is easy...

Another superb photo Harvey

Thank you so much, Dave.

@Reaper AL A great start. Welcome, Al.

@pjsjr congratulations on the Waynorth. A fine knife for that fine collection you have.

One thing I have observed regarding Lambsfoot knive.. They tend to multiply like rabbits.

 

[Prester John]

I carry a lambsfoot...

...because I like da Vinci's Last Supper, Beethoven's Fifth Symphony, Hamlet, the Grand Canyon, Dom Perignon, etc.

How 'bout you?

 

[dc50]

Sounds like you've got it fixed Dave Great reprt But what happened to the pics?!

How bout this.

 

[r8shell]

Thanks for the great photo

That constitutes a major feat of memory for these days Rachel! Great pic of your HB

Great rosewood HHB Rachel. I love that bush! If I was a snake I'd wanna live there and that bush would be my "MONKEY BARS".

Thanks, guys! Yeah, that rosemary is ridiculously overgrown. The only reason I haven't pruned it back is because it makes a cool background.

and the living is easy...

Just had to stop in for a moment to share the lambfoot I snagged, but more importantly to update those who remember the custom build I had done by Timothy La Combre, which you can read about here: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/timothy-la-combre.1642909/page-2

See you around again sometime!

It took me a while to identify that creature as an orang-utan, despite my hipness to the jungle jive.

My Lambfoot Journey: I've always been partial to the straight edge of the sheep foot blade on the stock knives that I often have carried - easily sharpened and works so well for so many daily uses. When I found the Case swayback with it's warncliff blade I had to have one and it's a dandy little knife. Then, I found Bladeforum! And soon after, the Guardians thread. Hah! The LAMBFOOT is THE knife! So, I sent off to Sheffield for my very own A. Wright and Sons Lamb foot knife! Awesome little guy with it's horn handle and snappy spring and so handy straight edge. Been enjoying it for about a year now.
So, then one day, I must have been napping, because there was all this talk about the Waynorth Lamb foot from Great Eastern and I was too late to order one and people were already showing theirs off! Dang, I missed it! So, I thought there may be the off chance I could find an old one online somewhere, and wouldn't you know it - I did! An old IXL that looks like the inspiration for the Waynorth, and from a seller in Sheffield, England to boot. It never even left home! Hah.
A day or so later, I then found one of Charlie's knives on the web, and though I paid way too much, I now have one of those masterpieces too!
Anyhow, let's see if I can post a few pictures.

Well, darn it! Technical difficulties, wouldn't you know it. Got pictures to post and they're not going through!
