Paul and Lloyd Waner

Roberto Clemente
Ralph Kiner
Bill Mazeroski

I was BORN the day Mazeroski hit that famous home run in game 7 of the 1960 World Series. Made the Yankees cry!

Don't know much about talking like a Pirate, but maybe I'll buy some rum soon. Oh, and I had a black cat for 17 years. I named him Blackbeard.

Enjoy! It seems fitting that the Black Jack gum got to you in time for Pirate Day. (Did you notice the name on the licorice whips?)

[5K Qs]

It's been a week and about 15 pages since I compiled some multi quotes in this thread. I don't think I have time to catch up in the manner I'd like to, so I'm just quoting some posts that happened to address me.

GT I'll do it!!

Glad to hear that you're totally committed to a carry schedule, Dave! Once you get it set up and get used to it, life itself will be a dream!

Thanks for sharing your first lambfoot knives story, GT. I remember when you got your rosewood Union Jack and thinking how thoughtful it was of your wife and daughter to have sought it out for you.

I’m glad you brought up food prep and “point-dragging pull cuts”. I had exactly the same initial aversion and subsequent conversion experience when I discovered that technique. I’ve yet to find a way to get the lambsfoot—or any other pocketknife, for that matter—to efficiently dice, but, using the technique you describe it’s a capable slicer in the kitchen and I’m finding myself reaching into my pocket instead of the kitchen drawer more often.

By the way, for slicing thicker foods, e.g. some salamis, I’ve found that a slicing motion that starts out as a push and then smoothly converts into a point-dragging pull cut is very effective.

Speaking of slicing.... those jalapeños and serranos I showed earlier still need to be sliced and preserved. Off a-slicing I go!

Thanks for your comments about obtaining my Union Jack and about using a lambsfoot, Greg.

It's a colorful job, but somebody has to do it!

5K Qs Thanks GT. Cracker Jack looks great soaking up rays.

@Jordan@DLT - Congratulations Jordan.

Thanks for the Cracker Jack compliment, Harvey.
And let me piggyback on your post and extend belated best wishes to Jordan and his growing family on the arrival of the twins! The commemorative knives are cool!

...
Happy memories GT, and it's nice to see Cracker Jack I'm afraid I lost a post of yours a while back, so I missed commenting on your tree/house mishap, sorry to hear about that my friend, and hope everything is all sorted out now Great idea about the moustaches!

Another pic from yesterday

Jack, it's amazing how you can keep up daily encouragement to all of the Guardians who post in this thread. Thanks for making us all feel welcome!
Lovely lighting on your stag HHB that really brings out its texture!

Sweet patina GT! Hopefully I can add a buffalo handle to my collection someday. They are very elegant looking, of course Jacks SFO buffalo is the icing on the cake.

Thanks, Jon. I often use my lambsfoots for food prep, and the carbon steel Wright's uses on the knives reacts quickly to that kind of work. I hope you can soon find a horn lambsfoot you like!

Don't know much about talking like a Pirate, but maybe I'll buy some rum soon. Oh, and I had a black cat for 17 years. I named him Blackbeard.

Was it the Mazeroski HR or your birth that made the Yankees cry, Vince?? I hope the Astros can make the Yanks cry again soon!
Great photo of your stag HHB!
I hope that you can get home soon , and that the flooding damage can be repaired ASAP.

Thanks for the chuckles and great pic of Lam Jack GT

I'm gratified by your gratitude, Jack. I enjoyed reading all the pirate posts, but I don't have much of an ear for dialect – I can hear that someone is speaking differently than I do, but I can't really identify and mimic the characteristic differences, so I'm not a great pirate-talker.

Good to see that hardworking HHB punching in again for another workday!
