Joshua, the perceived pace of a thread is subjective, and I suppose it's relative as well.
But my perception lately has been that the Guardians thread is moving at a relatively leisurely pace recently, and I thought I'd check if there's any objective evidence to support my perception. Here's an old post where I presented some data:

Nice looking knife! Stainless? Is there a "hump" in the spine above the nail nick, or an optical illusion?

Good morning Guardians! I wish I could show y’all some beautiful beach or snow photos! About the best I could do would be RAIN! I do have my Rosewood Bigun to help brighten my day!
Nice to see them both riding together again.
Nice looking knives. I love that makers are starting to catch on to the pattern.
Not exactly a flat blade, but still looks useful. The WCLF is about as long as I'd want in my pocket, the others look quite a bit longer. I also miss the nail nick.
All thanks to you, my friend.Nice African Rosewood John
Thanks Jack! We have got some good ones my friend!Same here Ron Hope things brighten up for you my friend Nice-looking Rosewood, we got a few good ones didn't we?
Thanks for posting the link to that thread, Jack, I'll have to read later when I have a chance. I like the look of those, although I'm a bit curious about the lack of kick on the blade. Maybe there's a stop pin? My only issue with stop pin construction is that I don't know how to tinker with them like I can with filing a kick.I was just browsing @Âchillepattada 's thread on French amateur knifemaker Stephane Thomachot. In addition to putting new cover's on A's WCLF, Stephane has had a go at making the pattern himself. What do you think Guardians?
That's why we're baseball fans!Aren't stats fascinating??

It seems to be a Hartshead kind of day, so I put mine in pocket.
They are very nice. The bottom knife, especially. The blade, with a bit more refinement, would make it something I would love to pocket carry. The WCLF re-hafting is so cool.

@5K Qs - I agree with yours and Jack’s conclusion that the pace has eased. The good news is that it’s easier to catch up when days or hourseek have been missed. Especially for you, one of the Maestros of epic post, GT.
Good Afternoon Guardians.

Have fun, Jack. Have some cake for me, too.
Two Guardians, Vince and Dan, did it up right.
Gotta try one of those Beaver Tails treats some day.
Marvelous look at your day as well, Dan.
What a great day out Dan Thank you for the fantastic photos I bet those Lambsfoot knives never thought they'd be leading such exciting lives
Taylor's Eyewitness lambsfoot arrived from across the pond. Sharp, centered, great w & t.
After lurking here for a few weeks, I have two lambs foot knives on their way to me. One NIT Waynorth jigged bone and one Arthur right ebony lambsfoot from Sheffield. Excited to see them, will post when they arrive!
Always more cake!or more cake!
See what I mean... Always more cake!!!“Let them eat cake.”
That's pretty cool, Dan.We were "featured" on the TV evening news a few years ago
Congratulations, Mike... And well done, Jack.Oh... Would you look what arrived in time for Wooden Wednesday? My first Big 'Un, and in ebony too!
Surprise package arrival from my friend and yours, Mr. Jack Black
