Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Good evening all. And a happy Halloween to my friends in the northern hemisphere, and hope everyone has a happy and safe weekend. Been waiting for a parcel to arrive, and it was in my mailbox this morning. A couple of lambs to add to my flock, i shouted myself a few culinary indulgences for my birthday, so thought i should show a couple of them for your expert opinions, take care and enjoy your weekend.:)

A couple of real winners there cudgee cudgee . Looking forward to more photos of them. I'd bet the pile side looks great too.
 
cudgee cudgee - Congratulations mate, what a cracking pair of Lambsfoot knives. That driftwood one has some amazing character, the snakewood knife’s a fine looking piece too.:cool::thumbsup:

Chin, you have a beautiful flock of lambs! :thumbsup:
Thank you kindly my friend.:)

I'm enjoying it enormously Chin, a fascinating story, enthusiastically told :) I've enjoyed watching a number of those videos before, he seems like the sort of chap who would appreciate a good Lambsfoot :D :thumbsup:

I'm glad that you received that package in good time my friend, and that those knives were made before Wright's went into their current shoddy patch o_O I'll have to send you a pack of pipe-cleaners sometime mate ;) That sounds like a very thorough sharpening regime, it'd be great to see your set-up sometime :thumbsup:

Great pics, as always, Chin :) :thumbsup:
Cheers mate, it’s a great read eh? I’m sure Escobar would appreciate the virtues of the Lambsfoot pattern.

Yes, I’m thrilled with that ebony big’un, Jack - especially with how thinly ground it is. It’s certainly been made by a cutler who knows what he's doing - the same one who made your SFOs, I’ll wager. I was impressed with a few neat touches like the chamfering at the bottom of the stovepipe kick, and the action and snap is very clean and crisp. Thanks again, my friend.:cool::)

No worries, I enjoy my stones and sharpening gear as much as my knives, so I’ll certainly be pleased to put some pics together along with some of my current favourite Lambsfoot knives.

Nothing wrong with how they are finished currently but I do think the rounding of the edges gives it a smoother appearance and it might just feel nicer in the hand as well.
Hey Dylan, that’s a very good point, and after seeing John’s beautiful contouring of Skoll, I’m inclined to do a bit more contouring on some of my crisp edged handles. I usually radius them lightly with fine sandpaper, but I also enjoy my ol’ ebony worker knife for it’s very rounded handle contours.

Also, just let me express my condolences for your loss. Having animal companions is a special joy in life, and I hope in time the pain of Saxon’s passing will be leavened by all the happy memories you have of the life you enjoyed together.

What a great gift. I wonder if it mentions the "Swingle"?
It does mate, as Jack said.

They sure made some fine pieces of kit in those days:

I think you’d enjoy that book too, David. I sort of meandered into finding it from reading all those references to ‘Life Preservers’ in Henry Mayhew’s Victorian Underworld series, which we’ve previously chatted about in this thread.

Great pics of your rambles mate, as always. :thumbsup:

Here’s another pic I blame you for - some Lancashire Cheese ‘n’ Onion pie and a Scottish Forfar Bridie.;):D

Cambertree Cambertree - That Ebony big ún is exceptional
Thanks Harvey. If I ever fail to comment on your photography, just know that I’m always in awe of your images, my friend.:thumbsup::)

Thanks, Chin. :thumbsup:
Your Ebony Big-un is very smart looking and great pics and post. Pleasantly surprised it is ground that thin BTE. Nice group shot there, too.:thumbsup:
Thanks Mark, I have a casual interest in locks, and very much enjoyed seeing that beautiful brass piece.:thumbsup: That’s good to know it will be preserved.

A stout walking stick, referenced in 'Hound of the Baskervilles'. :)

I always liked the rather general term of 'life preserver'. Not a lifejacket but anything specifically made to thwack n'er do wells about the skull. :D
Yes, Escobar refers to one of Holmes’ favourite tools being a lead loaded riding crop.

Apparently there was quite an industry of discreet self defence tools in Victorian era England.

Of course some people had no need of any force multipliers when it came to ‘holding court in the street’!

I thought @flatblackcapo would enjoy this account of an early London cyclist who was accosted by a fellow who ‘apparently had been imbibing’ and who ‘addressed some insulting remarks to her’.

The Illustrated Police News of July 1899, reported that she ‘immediately alighted... and gave him a sound thrashing, using her fists in Scientific Fashion, to the delight of several colliers who happened to be passing’.

The young woman, who was ‘believed to be a Bolton Lady, noted for her Athletic Powers, then rode off towards Tydesley’ and into the ranks of those wonderful, nameless characters in the marginalia of English literature, like Coleridge’s infamous ‘Man from Porlock’, and DeQuincy’s anonymous Malay, who appeared at the door of his cottage in Grasmere in Cumbria’s Lake District in 1812, and shared some opium with him - enough to kill ‘three dragoons and their horses’ - then ‘lay on the floor for about an hour, before pursuing his journey’.

Took the big 'un out for a bowl of Vietnamese Pho.

I haven’t seen @Old Guy or Dwight @Fodderwing for a while. Hope they’re ok.

In their absence I might take the liberty of sustaining Old Guy’s tradition of posting a tune for Happy Friday. This one’s from a local Melbourne muso:

The reason I thought of that is because for the past few weeks I've been watching an old 1970's show; 'The Rivals of Sherlock Holmes'
If you watch the first 10 seconds of this you'll maybe see a similarity.

Thanks for the Penang Lawyer link David :thumbsup: There's a couple of old Life Preservers in the Royal Armouries museum, at least one of them being dubbed the 'Sailor's Friend'. I probably have a pic somewhere, but it could take all morning to find! Probably quicker to go down there and take another! :rolleyes:

Interesting footage, thank you :thumbsup: The brass on my piece is actually of different guage I notice, with the thicker baseplate being 1/4", and the revolving part not much thinner. You wouldn't want to get caught with it in a sock! :eek: :D :thumbsup:

Doors? On'th buses? In'th Yorkshire?? In'th winter??! Tha' gorn' soft me lad? :D
It's actually a nice old ruin and the views are great; the only disappointment was how much English Heritage charge for entry. :rolleyes: Especially as you couldn't even get into the actual Keep because of the inevitable 'restoration works'. :rolleyes:
It's great walking round there isn't it. I plan on returning to do the caverns which I last visited when I was at school.

Nay lad, it wer' Derbyshire service! :D
It does look far more interesting than it did to me when I was a kid David, but the English Heritage charge is certainly one of the reasons I've not visited more o_O Plenty to do and see for nowt in Castleton too. I imagine you visited Saint Edmunds with its Norman arch (I remember when their 3 historic bibles were on open display). I once went out with a lass who had a summer job working in one of the caverns, and attended her works 'do'. I don't know if it's still the same today, but back in the 70's, the caverns were still owned by the same rival families who had owned them (and been prominent there) since time immemorial, a bunch of rather entitled, ignorant snobs from what I recall (lot of cousins marrying cousins) :rolleyes:

I'm not expecting a lot of trick-or-treaters. It's been raining since yesterday, it's 35 and falling, and the rain has turned to snow. Coldest and wettest Halloween I remember.
FPA70y6.jpg

Nice pics Jer, but the weather looks miserable (as it is here today). Halloween isn't much to shout about here, I've only had trick or treaters (young children with their parents) once in 20 years :( :thumbsup:

So I could not go walking today, but it turns out my new Rosewood also has special powers. It took me an a tour of Yorkshire this afternoon :)
"A Walk in Nature" :D
UpEizdk.jpg

Nicely done my friend :D :thumbsup:

Crikey! Your right though. Over in the UK we've had a very early autumn. It either means were heading for a brutal winter or we'll all be in our shorts and t-shirts on Christmas Day.

When I were a lad, we were in shorts every day of the year, whatever the weather! :p It were brutal! :eek: :D :thumbsup:

Thanks for the comments, fellas. Rilley says thanks too.
Duncan, Yep, Rilley is a girl. I don't really now how old she is but I have had her for about 9 years and my buddy had her for a couple before that. So she has some years on her but she is still going strong.
Ed, those chips were pretty good. :D
Mark, thanks, she kind of photo bombed me.:D
Cudgee, thanks, she is a super loyal pooch.
Thanks, Jack. Like I told marks she kind of photo bombed me...I figured if she was going to just stand there I might as well get her in frame too. :D
David, this dog can hear a ziplock bag open from a mile away and smell steak from 2. :D

It made for a great pic Kevin :) Nice to see you're keeping busy mate ;) :thumbsup:

Of course, Crockett has strong connections to Tennessee, too, just like Sam Houston.

Great post Vince :) :thumbsup:
 
Jack Black Jack Black - Thank you Jack. Here’s to you finding the answer. I just know you will.:thumbsup:

Thanks Harvey, I sure hope I will :) :thumbsup:

It sure is pal, I'm two thirds of the way through it already, and have thoroughly enjoyed every page :)

Yes, I think it must have been made by the same chap, at least in part, since their other cutlers don't do fine work at all (to be polite). Here's the blade on a sample I picked up recently, looks like the edge has been put on with a Dremel, and the action is so poor I can't even open the blade without a pick :mad:

The edge on the other knife I picked up was even worse :thumbsdown:

I know a 'lady cyclist' from Bolton, and the ruffian would have got the same from her too! :D I love the photo in the book of the coshes and truncheons taken from suffragettes! :cool: Great post mate! :D :thumbsup:



I haven’t seen @Old Guy or Dwight @Fodderwing for a while. Hope they’re ok.

Dwight checked in about a week ago to let us know he is OK :) I hope OG is alright too :thumbsup: And where is Dave @dc50 ? :confused:

Thanks for the tunes Chin, and for another great pic of your ebony Big 'Un :) Hope you have a fantastic weekend :thumbsup:
 
Mornin', y'all

DSC-2991.jpg
Mornin'. Nice pic!:thumbsup:



I found a few good ones last night Kevin :) Paying for it a little today :eek: ;) :thumbsup:



Very cool pic :) :thumbsup:



You still have a great name I think Duncan! :D ;) :thumbsup:



That's an excellent photo Ed, quite a variation there :thumbsup:



Good to see you here Joshua :thumbsup:



Cool pic John, Happy Halloween to you and all our Guardians :) :thumbsup:



Fantastic pics Mark. When I was a kid a lot of old houses still had very simple latches, which nowadays you only see on garden gates and outhouses. They look a bit like that, but the 'mechanism' is just a simple bar as seen here (this is the inside of the door).

sneck-or-latch-on-green-door.jpg


The piece which is depressed to lift the bar and open the door is known as a 'sneck', and also gives its name to the mechanism found on a type of old Sheffield locking folder, known as Sneck Knives :thumbsup:




Smashing photo :) :thumbsup:

Hi Guardians, hope everyone is having a good day :) I was up bright and early to go to the market this morning. Thought this item, shown with my Hartshead Barlow, was interesting, and wondered if anyone has seen one before (not looking for guesses as to its purpose, only knowledge, thanks)?

09dg5fl.jpg


The smaller part rotates, and when the numbers are aligned with the arrow, the relevant hole matches up with the hole on the larger piece :thumbsup:

6U1kiVd.jpg
Very interesting. That gives me some ideas.:)
I've never heard the term "sneck". Interesting Cutlery connection too, thanks for the info, Jack.
No idea on the gizmo. I look forward to finding out with you, though.




Great pics, enjoyed catching up with the Guardians on my lunch hour.
Now back to work , it's paperwork and lot's of bureaucratic government protocols for the rest of my afternoon :)
But I have something special to share later today :)
Thanks, Dan.:thumbsup: Paperwork and protocols- sounds a bit dreadful.:eek: Can't wait to see what you have to share!




Crikey! Tourist tame obviously. :)



Now I've heard of a Sweet William but don't know what one is. I wonder if it also mentions a 'Penang Lawyer'?:cool:




Welcome to Cheshire... :rolleyes::rolleyes:



That hound has a hungry look in it's eye...:D



All mutts are loyal. Until you leave that pork pie/sauasges/steak unattended for 2 minutes...



Over here it's usually the springs that fail. Prolly 'cos there made out of recycled frying pans. :rolleyes:



Sort of wild-arsed semi-educated guess here but is it an adjustable aperture off an old slide projector or camera?

Great knives everyone. For me it's been my rosewood keeping me company for the past couple of days.
On my walk yesterday.

Thanks you Jack !

cudgee cudgee - Congratulations mate, what a cracking pair of Lambsfoot knives. That driftwood one has some amazing character, the snakewood knife’s a fine looking piece too.:cool::thumbsup:

Hey Dylan, that’s a very good point, and after seeing John’s beautiful contouring of Skoll, I’m inclined to do a bit more contouring on some of my crisp edged handles. I usually radius them lightly with fine sandpaper, but I also enjoy my ol’ ebony worker knife for it’s very rounded handle contours.

Also, just let me express my condolences for your loss. Having animal companions is a special joy in life, and I hope in time the pain of Saxon’s passing will be leavened by all the happy memories you have of the life you enjoyed together.

Thanks, Chin. Yeah, that lock was way too cool to be discarded. It will continue to be in service somehow, somewhere. Delicious pic of the Ebony and Pho! :thumbsup::D









Light duty for the Lambsfoot yesterday. Mostly just pencil sharpening although, a lot of it, as marking on concrete wears down the lead quickly.

Then, Halloween with two of my favorite little girls where my Lambsfoot opened some of the more difficult packaging. One a Vampire, the other a Fairy princess.:) It's amazing how different siblings can be, just like my own two sons.

Wishing a great Friday to all.:thumbsup:

Haha... Great story. :cool::thumbsup:

Morning Guardians, Friday is here again! :) Hope everyone has had a passable week, a great Halloween, and that the weekend has lots of good things in store for you :thumbsup:

Good morning Guardians! I’m going to enjoy carrying this fine 2018 Guardians Ebony SFO today! :D

Great to see your Lambsfoot at work, and that's a great Halloween pic :D Hope you all had a fantastic time :) :thumbsup:

Happy Friday Guardians! I've been distracted the past month or so with another knife series, but today this gal takes her rightful place in my daily carry. Hope all have a great weekend!

QSaYpPS.jpg

Very nice indeed :) :thumbsup:
 
Nice pics Jer, but the weather looks miserable (as it is here today). Halloween isn't much to shout about here, I've only had trick or treaters (young children with their parents) once in 20 years :( :thumbsup:
I had the porch light on for a while, but there was nobody out there. I have a lot of internalized twixes to burn off. I won't do it again. Well, who knows what I will or won't do in a year.
vZqWPT9.jpg

I had already eaten the half a bag that wouldn't fit into the little dish.
 
Yesterday was the last day of the Month of The Wolf. I really enjoyed carrying Skoll for a whole month. I bonded well with him... I sanded the handle smooth to make him even more comfortable, got some good patina on the blade, and used him every chance I had. Now I won't be afraid to grab him in the future, in fact he might even be among the first ones I grab now. ;)



Last night was Halloween and the first one for us without any kids around. My wife and I celebrated Halloween by going out to dinner at our favorite Cheese steak shop. After that we went to the miniature golf course to have a little fun. They had the whole place decorated with scary stuff and playing scary Halloween music. Afterwards we stopped for some ice cream and headed home to watch Monday Night Football. A great night!



Today, I'm back carrying my Ebony WCLF...

After I had a visit about 15 years ago, I have stocked up ever since, but as I have never had callers again, I didn't bother this year, thought I could always dish out my high quality dark chocolate stash :rolleyes: Hope you still had a good one Jer :thumbsup:

It has been a lot of fun John, Skoll is a special knife :) Sounds like you had a great time last night :) No fleas on your lovely WCLF :thumbsup:

I guess, had I thought of it, I should have carried Lucy for Halloween :rolleyes: :thumbsup:
