Good morning Guardians. Sunny and hot today here in southern coastal NC. Going to go outside anyway and do some yard work with my HHB helping out here and there.

Is that a new one Bob?

Is that a new one Bob?

Yes, just found it. This was with an ettrick by the same cutler ( C+X Lockwood Brothers)that I found at goodwill store.
From the little search I did, they were part of Joseph Elliot & Sons in early 1900's.

Good afternoon Guardians. Very pleased to finally be making an appearance in this thread after many years of lurking. Try as I might I can't quite get through all 4134 pages! What I've found out though over the years about the pattern though has been fascinating and it's been wonderful to read all of your contributions.

This is one of two lambsfoot knives I own, both from from A Wright, the other being a big'un in rosewood with a bit questionable in F&F and a blade that isn't even close to straight (purchased in 2010 when they were going through a bit of a funny period).
I love this ebony though, it's pretty much perfect.
No gaps, centered blade, feels lovely in the hand.

Glad you stopped by and joined the conversations. Nice ebony coat. You are not alone in the questionable f&f of A.Wright quality control.

That"s a cool pic Steve Gorgeous knife too

Thanks buddy, once they found out there wasn't a bone broken, which I never thought there was, they just shrugged it off as a 'soft tissue injury'. Yeah, no s#@£ Sherlock!

LOL! Really nice young doctor, but not really that much help I'm glad that my clavicle is ONLY dislocated at one end though!

Thanks Jack, sounds like you got the usual service at the docs

Hope it gets better soon buddy !

Lol...found at a second hand clothing store, while donating.

From the little search I did, they were part of Joseph Elliot & Sons in 1953.

Great find Joseph Elliot & Sons acquired the Lockwood Brothers marks, and made knives under both names

You'll find the Elliot factory, and what is left of the old Lockwood one, in my Sheffield Factories thread

Welcome to the Guardians It's good to have you here

If you're struggling to read the whole thread, don't miss the Thread Index to the early part of the thread, (and the Guardians World Map), which is linked to in post #1

Thanks Jack, sounds like you got the usual service at the docs

Yeah, and I consider myself lucky not to still be there, and have my own pain relief!

Hope it gets better soon buddy !

Thanks pal

Good for you

A few weeks ago, on Yorkshire Day, I called in a place called Pieminister. While expensive, their pies are very good, but their Leeds restaurant is a dump, frankly, and the service is always poor. A good reason not to go back

While shopping online for some groceries the other night, I spotted that they had Pieminister pies "on offer" at 2 for £9, but there was only one variety, a vegetarian pie named 'Kevin' I've had this pie before though, and enjoyed it, so I put a couple in my basket. I was going to have one tonight, with some roast potatoes, but I'm not up to scrubbing spuds right now I managed to rustle something up though Darn tasty pie for sure, and also very filling

Unlike at the restaurant, there was Henderson's Relish on hand, and nobody dribbled gravy down my trouser leg

Thank you for more informative treasures Jack.
Perhaps food critic as second vocation? You seem to find some interesting cuisine.

A pleasure Bob I quite fancy that as a second job!

Hey, look what my wife bought me:

Interesting true story about a whaler being sunk by a whale. An inspiration for Moby Dick, I believe. Looking forward to reading it.

Vince that is a great book. I had the pleasure to read it a few years ago.

Good morning Guardians, sorry, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to go to the hospital. Nothing life-threatening, just one of those annoying things life throws at us from time to time. Thanks for the kind words. I'll catch up later

Dang Jack. That is a bummer. I hope you begin feeling better quickly.

Hello everyone! Hope your weekend is off to a good start. I’ve been Enjoying Premier league matches and soaking up some AC. We have tickets to Oppenheimer later.

Rolling with my constant.

Thanks Pete, certainly not something I was expecting!

Thanks buddy we are pretty excited.

Yeah life always suprises doesn’t it? I almost backed into a poorly parked car Tuesday. The neighbors guest must need glasses or driving lessons.

Please don’t mind the dead grass. It’s been “hot”.

I was impressed by it Pete, worth seeing on a big screen for sure Doesn't it just my friend, I guess the causes of most accidents are pretty mundane That"s some bad parking! I'm sure they'll have the AC cranked up in the movie theatre!

Cassie and I went for a nice walk around one of the local ponds. It's a lovely day here. Heat finally broke and along with it the humidity.

Great pics Steve, amazing skies, and some killer stag

 

[Hengelo_77]

Well Guardians, let's see why you got 4134 pages of these...
I have the blade sticking out quite a bit in the closed position, I'm seriously thinking of leaving this one without a nial nick/pull.
What do you guardians think?
