Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Good morning Guardians. Another busy day with the Board of Directors. Early Luncheon on the USS North Carolina (in the Ward Room) and meeting dignitaries, etc. Then a tour of our new Reverse Osmosis drinking water plant. If you care to learn more about this historic ship: https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/5a1169bc127f48e3b94eb52986c9186e. I'll be carrying my Senator today.

That's a beautiful Senator Bill.
That is such a beautiful lambsfoot, Dwight. Scales match the season well
Thank you kind sir.
Barber Brian owes me half a haircut I need to claim!
I was gonna ask you if you forgot to double his pay but I see where you said you paid him the regular double fare.
It's like he cut it on the left hand side, and just forgot to cut the other side! I doubled the cost of the haircut with a tip too! 🤨I'm annoyed about having to go back, I have a real simple haircut, and cut my own hair for 30 years. I only go to see Brian because I like the guy, and don't want him to go bust, but a half-blind barber is as useless as Old Don from Casino
The difference between a good haircut and a bad haircut is about three weeks Jack. Just be patient.🙃🤣

Up close and personal. Great perspective, Pete.

How now, Guardians! What do we think - cooking with grease yet? The lines on the paper depict the height of the blade at the ricasso and at the hoof:

This is about as much as I can grind without cutting into the nail nick. I could grind past the nick for a dramatic effect; and the blade would remain pinchable. But I would have to reshape the hoof to do so.

Looks good !
 
Thought I'd pop in with my lambsfoot progress. Think I ended up more in the Sheambsfoot ball park. Stabilized Chestnut, you can see a couple of wee wormholes towards the back.

Looks great. For a lambsfoot, I think the back should be a straight line between the plunge(?) and the final descent to the point.
Speaking with little knowledge and no authority.
If I could make a knife that nice I wouldn't much care who thought what its shape should be named.
