Yes, it was a fine day my friend. thank youLooks like a great way to start the day, Dave ! A nice sunny photo.
Loos like you had some fun out at the range, Preston.Good evening Guardians, three full days at the range out of the last four( Sat, Monday and today) has left this Guardian fulfilled, but exhausted. I'll catch up as I can, but now, the not so much fun as shooting part, cleaning and caring for the firearms. I might find a few uses for the lambsfoots, but the most important will be morale boosting and encouragement as I proceed.
I have been enjoying your nature themed Lambsfoot pics lately, good stuff.Goodnight Guardians
Congrat's Ed, you got a looker!This A. Wright just in from Snowdonia, Wales U.K.. @Jack Black may know them. This is a Lambfoot with Buffalo Horn covers. It is a small knife at 3 3/8" long with a 2 5/8" long blade. The covers are very nice with multiple colors throughout them. Here are my normal pictures on a board but the covers are so nice and translucent, I took a couple shots outside. Some of you may recognize my old photograph backstop with the rock and cinder block.
Too kool, Kevin! Both are keepers!
YES!
Between out right missing some posts, fumbling with my thumbs while trping on my phone, or maybe going to a different page and back, loosing quotes, it happens!
Looking good (and healthy), Kevin! Looks like you are getting some patina coming on.
I love my revolvers, but my 1911 is the most fun to shoot. And such a classic!I have been meaning to buy a 1911 for a few years now, I think I should stop lollygagging.
The small keyboard is frustrating, but I do almost all of my "forum stuff" on my iPhone. My desktop is old and slow (like me!), and I just find it easier to use the phone.Thanks, Dennis. I gave up trying to do any forum stuff on my phone. I feared that I wouldn't be able to suppress the urge to throw my phone as far as I could if I kept trying to type on that little tiny keyboard.
Thanks mate, your Harissa would have gone great with it I actually had some 'Yorkshire Chilli and Tomato Chutney' with it, and since it's a bit limp on the heat, loaded up with some of the Secret Aardvark @btb01 gave me at Xmas
You were certainly there in spirit my friend I was looking at some photos of you sat in The Fat Cat just the other day, but would only post one with your permission There was a lot of positive interest in the knives in the pub, we ended up having quite a chat with our fellow drinkers
Scholarly post my friend, simply superb, and well worth savouring more than once I think
Thank you, Chin, for a splendid read on my favorite lambsfoot the ebony.
Hi Chin, I like your assortment of hot stuff. That Bloody Mary must be very interesting.
Chin I realized that I had not read your entire post and I must say it read like prose. Just a beautifully rendered writing about your "trusty" user from A Wright. What a pleasurable read first thing in the morning for me to start my day. Thank you!
Great post Chin.
Cambertree - I always greatly enjoy your thoughtful erudite posts Chin. Thank you my friend.
Chin, what a fantastic post. I love how you’ve not only captured your feelings about your ebony lambsfoot, but also put yourself—and us through your words—into the minds of the folks who owned and used those extremely well worn examples.
Very interesting. Is my understanding correct that the effect of this is to approximate having a convex primary grind with a small secondary bevel?
Chin, another monumental, informative, illustrated, post. Thank you for the time and sharing your knowledge. Your photographic skills go hand in hand with your word-smithing.
Chin, you have a gift for writing, my friend. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us and I always enjoy reading these posts of yours while drinking my morning coffee.
The lambshank is looking good as ever.
Cambertree Part of what makes Jack’s world of Lambfoot knives in the Guardians such a richly rewarding experience, is from contributions from members like yourself. Thoroughly enjoyable, Chin.
Cambertree Really enjoyed your further review of your trusted Ebony companion, Chin.
Do love that fixed blade, Chin! What steel did you use?
And the folding friend to the fixed!
Did you modify your stomach with....maybe Adamantium? I like hot, but mmmmm, no!
That works for me, Vince!Great looking knife, Kevin. I wonder if the 2020 Guardians will be ebony?
Thank you kindly, my friend.Thanks Dave, I’m glad you like the ebony as well. That’s a fantastic picture.
Another dandy double, José! Nice photo
I hope to be part of the club

Thanks Dennis, I have always loved firearms, glad I'm able to have what I have. You are the sure do aMan, nice armory you got there, Preston! Must have had a blast! All fun and games....till it comes down to cleaning that many!
Now you got me wanting to go out and put some rounds down range!
Yes it is, but, sorry it's not mineCool photo of the all seeing eye, Preston!
Right!! ThanksRosie's a handy girl to have in the kitchen, and a looker!
Now if she'd bring you a beer....
By far, my favorite pistol platform, Kevin, do it! I belong to a private range that's about 40 minutes from my houseLoos like you had some fun out at the range, Preston.
I have been meaning to buy a 1911 for a few years now, I think I should stop lollygagging.
Thanks you, Chin, your hot pepper fixation brings tears to my eyes, but I love your photos of those heat bombs! I have a very low tolerance for hot and spicy.Very kind of you my friend.
Great photo Harvey, what's the blue mold on that wonderful lambs cover?
@5K Qs - Thank you G.T. Your Black Jack is magnifico!
Jack Black - Thank you Jack. Here’s to you having a great visit.
@JohnDF Have a wonderful time John.

I'm actually craving another one! I sent that recipe to my wife so maybe she'll think I'm not so crazy.
I've only tried Samuel Smith's, and it is delicious.

This thread moves SO fast! I was catching up on the 50 pages or so that I was behind after being sick... When my wife surprised me with a camping trip to Leavenworth/Lake Wenatchee... So of course now I'm another 50 pages behind, lol.
I'm gonna read up a bit and I'll get some pics from the trip posted tonight or tomorrow (I brought the Ironwood Guardians and Ebony Waynorth along for the trip).
I'm feeling MUCH better.
Love it! Some of them are really eyeballing your HHB!
...
That's some mean bean munching machine!
Like the others have stated, love the file work on your SHHB!
Thanks to a generous package from the Guardian-in-Chief, I'm ready for a hike, and can find my way home!!
Once again I find myself, gratefully, in appreciation of Jack's generosity! Thank you, my friend!
And since I forgot to include my lamb with the photo, this one is me nerding out ( @JohnDF )
