Hey Greg! Great to see you here my friend I've been wondering how you, and even put a reminder in my phone to drop you a PM this weekend. It's great to know you're OK

That sounds like an exciting whistle-stop trip there

I'm happy to help out with the index, and really appreciate the trouble you take on behalf of your fellow guardians.

Cool pics, hope you get a good crop, and (in the shorter term) that you have a great weekend Wishing everyone else the same of course

As for me, I reckon I'm halfway up the mountain!

Yup, I’m doing great. Thank you so much for thinking to check in on me, that was very thoughtful of you, my friend.

The trip was fantastic and included my first time driving on the Autobahn, in both Germany and Austria. Good to be home, though.

Thank you for your willingness to pitch in again on the index. I truly appreciate it. I’ll contact you privately when it’s time.

Congrats on making it halfway up the mountain! I know your extremely hard efforts are going to make a lot of folks happy. We are extremely lucky to have you in our company, Jack.

No pictures to share, but my lambsfoot was with me as I planted the garden this morning.

Old toffee-wings with the money clip that got me going on money clips. I gave otf another dip in the 50-50 kerosene and linseed oil, for fear of shrinkage and bugs.

That's good to hear Greg, sounds like a really great trip I'm more than happy to help out my friend, and really appreciate the index you created and maintain, it's a real asset for members here Thanks for the kind words

Like your money clip Jer, and OTW is looking good That's interesting about the dip

Hope everyone is having a good weekend, and that y'all enjoy a pleasant Sunday

It was my birth-year that finally sold me on the clip. Dad used to put hot sauce on everything, and say at his age he needed more stimulation. Maybe it's the same with me and the shiny things.

I can relate to that my friend!

Just done another packaging run to town, and bumped into my old (knife-collecting) friend Russian Alex (https://www.bladeforums.com/threads...-wizard’s-quest-part-7.1153000/#post-13183683), so we had a couple of pints together, while Alex told me about the finer points of drinking Ethanol (which apparently has a lower surface tension than water, so can lead to drooling)!

 

[Nature Boy]

Good to know, Jack.

 

[Jack Black]

Good to know, Jack.

LOL! Alex is a chemist, so it was interesting to hear what he had to say on the subject. Apparently you should mix it with water (or mixer of your choice) at least 24 hours before drinking)! One day this sort of Cold War era knowledge will be lost!

A rare day: I only carried one knife, but it was my lambsfoot. Too lovely and useful to keep away.

OK folks, it had to happen - There's a new cult in town!!

This thread is dedicated to the appreciation of this quintessential English pattern, and for those who appreciate its subtle lines, its usefulness, and its history. All Lambsfoot posts and pics are welcome here

Edit 17th December 2017 - Sheepsfoot pics should only be included for purposes of comparison to the Lambsfoot pattern. However beautiful your Sheepsfoot is, this is not the place to show it. If you don't know the difference, please read on

Thanks to @WhittlinAway , this thread now has an index to help you quickly find information within it: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/guardians-of-the-lambsfoot.1406735/page-172#post-17681582

Welcome to the Guardians of the Lambsfoot thread, and thanks to all my fellow Guardians for their contributions

Enjoy!

Jack

I think I need time to navigate through all this. I can't seem to add a photo, but I will try.
Thank you for the response.!

I shall try to find a bit of quiet wilderness in which to spend tomorrow!

Jack, I figured you'd have been down there with the crowds outside Windsor Castle wearing one of these.

I'm really looking forward to my 2018 Guardians Lambsfoot(s) showing up. They've been "processing" in Chicago since Friday, so hopefully it won't be too long!

Nah, I like a good loaf, but I've never been a fan of circuses

"Processing" can take a while I think Hope they reach you soon though my friend

I'll be off to the post office again today

I got up to watch Chuck & Di's wedding. (What a good old-fashioned gothic horror fairy tale that turned into.)

 

[Half/Stop]

Ron, the stag on your BF Stag Jack looks like it could have been shed by Bambi's dad, the Great Prince of the Forest, himself!!

LOL You must have got up real early Saturday morning Gary!!

I'll be off to the post office again today

Jack I can hardly wait! Mine are in Jamaica NY! At least that’s on the correct side of the pond!

Totin this Senator today. It’s not my favorite of the Lambsfoot patterns I own, but none the less, it’s a Lambsfoot.

 

[screened porch]

It's Here! (with a majestic bonus) @Jack Black must have employed a wrinkle in time.

Sorry about the lack of natural light. Raining again.
But trust me, the knife looks and feels perfect. Thanks again Jack!

I just noticed that I have both an incoming international package (my 2018 Guardians Lambsfeetses) and an outgoing international package (#71 Bull Nose headed for Finland) currently waiting around in Chicago.

I'll make sure I get up early for this



Nice Lambsfoot collection Jer

Good-looking Senator Ron Glad your package is in Jamaica NY, not Jamaica in the Caribbean!

Wow! I can't believe that has got there so fast Jer! It's almost like we're in the 21st century, and Royal Mail have stopped using carrier-pigeons! Congratulations my friend, I'm glad it has reached you

Hope you get yours soon Barrett
