Afternoon Guardians! Driving over the mom's to cut the scapes off the garlic. Notice most the wheat looks awful. Corn is growing good. The pastures that haven't been over grazed are green and lush. Beautiful late spring weather today. Happy trails!

As much as I love seeing all of these SUPERB Lambfoots - the older ones really make me sit up - like this one by our friend Steve - Wow!

Terrible lack of absence in the forums lately - things have been quite a struggle lately - getting back up on my feet :) :thumbsup:

I wish you well and may your ship be righted soon Duncan.👍🏻
I do agree about the old lambs. They have a richness to their appearance. Each, also carries a personal history, that would be interesting to know.

I won't be around to see it, but all the Lambsfoot knives out there now will all be old with their own history one day . And people will be saying wish i could get one of them. History has a trend to repeat itself, and collecting Lambsfoot knives will be no different. The current QC of some being produced now may leave a lot to be desired, but history will blur all that, we all have romantic notions and memories of the past, " The Good Old Days ", some true, some just rubbish. That is my Sunday Morning rant while i'm eating sausages and eggs.

I hope this coming week is easier for you Duncan, and that you're not rushed off your feet as much as you usually seem to be. Hope you're doing OK my friend :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Sadly, there is still so much much we don't know about the Lambsfoot pattern, and possibly we will never know. Sadly, the Sheffield cutlers didn't write much down, even about such a significant pattern. All we know is that at some point in the mid 19th century, a firm started making a Lambsfoot knife, and very quickly, the pattern was so successful, that hundreds of Sheffield cutlers were making it :thumbsup:

Quality pic of your cool K'roo Bob :) :thumbsup:

Good morning Guardians, and Happy Father's Day to all the dads! :) It's set to chuck it down here later, but I'd like to get out and do some gardening before it comes. However, I'm still suffering a bit with my back, and don't want to make it worse, so I'll have to see. Plenty of other stuff to do anyway. The bus-drivers in Leeds go on indefinite strike today, so it's going to be an 'interesting' week. Hopefully it'll be resolved soon, unlike the Sheffield bus strike a few years back, involving the same bus company, which went on for 3 weeks, before the drivers won their case. I remember going over to Sheffield, totally unaware of the situation, and there was tumble-weed blowing through the city centre! :eek: I thought I'd treat myself to a Double Lambsfoot Day today, been a while since The Yorkshire Rose was last in my pocket :) Have a good one Guardians :thumbsup:
