I still have some catching up to do but I thought I would drop in and and say hi.

Nice to see your garden is doing OK pal, that's a great pic :) :thumbsup:


Cool pic Mark :) :thumbsup:

My greatest frustration was that after being injected with radioactive isotopes a couple of times I emerged with exactly zero superpowers.

:D :thumbsup:

Today, just as I was starting to worry about where my lambsfoot was on it's journey, my wife came in with package in hand after checking our mailbox :):thumbsup: Yeah ... finally :thumbsup:

Wonderful photo of that beauty Harvey :) :thumbsup:

Hope everyone is having a great weekend, I spent the day out dodging downpours, but I picked up a few bits and bobs in the market. I'll get some pics up tomorrow, when I'm hoping to hang out here a bit more :) :thumbsup:

"Minor Point of Interest:

Last week I presented this knife as a Lambfoot knife and it definitely is - Lambfoot blade and all.

'However, it is not a "Standard" Lambfoot knife. Instead it is a Lambfoot knife with a Pruner Handle. You can see the difference in a "Standard" Lambfoot knife handle and a Pruner Lambfoot knife handle in the following picture. Further, the Lambfoot blade of the Pruner Lambfoot knife has a more gradual falloff at the point and the knife with the Pruner Handle is 1/8" shorter closed than the "Standard" knife .

The "Standard" Lambfoot knife is the Bonus knife Jack Black Jack Black sent with my Hartshead Barlow.

Almost looks like the same blade they use on the 2 bolster versions. How are you liking the pruner handle? I have one making its way to me and am looking forward to trying it out.
 
solphilos solphilos How about a picture of the mark side you filed down?
You had to ask...:rolleyes::D

As you can see I had to sacrifice some of the character in the stag, but it is so much better now. That smooth area was previously a large hump, and looked and felt ridiculous.

It matches the pile side a bit more also, not the most attractive but it didn't looks so great to begin with either.
 
My guess, and it is a guess, is that they see no need because they are not in the collector knife market, or don't see themselves as such, they make working knives. Jack Jack Black Jack Black definitely has more insight and maybe a better answer.
Thanks for the reply. That would make sense. It would still be cool to look back in 30 years and be able to see when the knife was made. Knife nut problems lol. :D
 
I saw some Xmas gift tags on sale the other day! :eek: Hope it cools down for you soon Rachel :thumbsup:

It's officially "only" 103, but the temps standing on the asphalt of a parking lot are a bit higher. :mad:

I feel for you in that sort of stifling heat. We are having one of the coldest cold snaps in August on record. BRRR:eek:. Hopefully you will not have to much really hot weather left. But i know nothing about your weather patterns. Have a good week and try and stay cool my friend.:cool::cool::cool:
