Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Thanks, Jack!! I will. Maybe I can finally catch up 😆 🤣 😂. I hope your day went well my friend.
I hope so Paul, you must be enjoying spending time with your family again buddy :) Learning of Harvey's passing has overshadowed it, but I got to meet up for coffee with my pal Wolfie, and had a nice lunch :) :thumbsup:
 
Such devastating news, Harvey was such a positive and unique presence here. Rest in peace, Harvey, you will be greatly missed.
Yes, he brought a lot to the table, it's very sad :( :thumbsup:
Good morning, folks. I still have this one in the pocket.

You must post pics of that beautiful knife more often Dylan, my memory span is very poor these days, and I need to be reminded of it! :) Rhidian Rhidian did an amazing job in recreating that old Rodgers Lambsfoot pattern :cool: :thumbsup:

I will give it a more robust try, Jack. 😁 Life has been busy and I have found less time to take photos and process them. My daughter is playing volleyball and basketball (multiple leagues) in both - in addition to her time caring for horses outside of all that. Needless to say, she is keeping us all on our toes :oops:

I couldn't be happier with Rhidian's efforts. It helped that out of the various custom makers I had reached out to regarding this knife, he was the only one who not only responded, but was genuinely interested in reproducing it. I count myself most fortunate in that regard.

Thanks pal! :D I know how that happens! :oops:;)😁:thumbsup:

That's great to hear Dylan, I've loved every example of Rhidian's work I've seen :) Your Rodgers is a great piece of history, but I dare say your tribute knife makes a much better user :D ;) It's great to see them together :thumbsup:
 
All ready for the market tomorrow, and ready for a beer now too! It's raining here at the moment, so I hope that blows over by tomorrow :rolleyes: I'm going to take The Chieftain with me :thumbsup:

I was at Castle Espie, in County Down, with a girlfriend, about 15 years ago, when we were offered a lift back to Belfast by a family, who she knew slightly, and who we bumped into when leaving. In the back of their vehicle, (which I can only vaguely remember), they had a box of traditional Irish mourning handkerchiefs, which they had come across somehow. The box was marked, 'Made in Belfast, Ireland', meaning they'd been manufactured prior to 1926. They said they were intending to sell off the handkerchiefs for a local charity at some point. I was fascinated, and asked if I might buy a couple off them. They asked me if £2 was alright. In retrospect, I wish I'd bought a dozen.

 
Guardians, Barrett @btb01 has thoughtfully posted some news about our absent friend Harvey @cigarrodog in the Lounge. I'm afraid it's sad news :(

Hello everyone! We had to make a life change, so that had kept me out for a while.
I was blown away by the news about Harvey! 😣🙏🏼
Before I got so busy, he and I chated, I had gave him some 3rd Armored Division items for a project that he was doing in memory of his dad. In turn, he sent me a care package, but we were in the middle of the move, and I lost touch with him.
It is a lesson for me not to take too long to stay in touch with friends! Some right here in this forum.


hope he's sat smoking a fat cigar, with his favourite Lambsfoot balanced on the biggest of cream cakes 👍
😔👍

We moved to Ruidoso NM to be closer to my folks who are getting up in age, so we have made many trips to Oklahoma moving stuff, and down to where my folks live, about 4 hrs away.

It took us forever to get internet, went through 3 different carriers to finally get hooked up. T-Mobile don't cover up here, so we'll probably have to change that service. But the pro's outweigh the con's by mile. Here is some scenery around us.


Will post more later!
Hope everyone has a great evening!

Good to see ya, Dennis.
 
Diamond shield is latest addition it was the original K’roo Willem made for me that wasn’t exactly what I had asked for. I think the intermediary I worked through got some signals crossed. Didn’t get fluted bolsters on the second one he redid for me. I saw the original sitting for a while unsold and decided it can’t hurt to have two.

Blue makes me happy and these were both made for me so I’m happy to have them together. It’s like reuniting family lol.
