RALF's pull is about a 7½, and the combination of the smooth ebony and my dry skin made grip and control an iffy thing. I found someone on the forum to stipple both sides, making the grip much more secure. I really wanted checkering, but couldn't find anyone to do it.

Thanks David!
Gracias amigo mio.
What a jewel.Looks good Rick
Stan liked to add a few more Maltese crosses, he could do them in seconds, but file-work, both on spring-backs, and blades goes way back before Stan. It hasn't stopped a few shysters trying to pass off contemporary A. Wright knives as Stan's since he passed awayI'm not sure when Wright's started using file-work, but possibly when they started doing their badly-named 'Senator' pattern. A former local vendor claims to have both conceived and named the pattern, while Wright's current owner makes the same claim. I know both of them well, and suspect that the vendor wanted a fancier knife to sell, and Stan's knives may have been an indirect influence, but maybe no more than that. A couple of more pics of the file-work on my Stan Shaw Lambsfoot, which covers the entire back-spring from well to tang, and extends down along the top of the blade
Definitely Mitch
Fantastic image Jack.Good morning Guardians, Christmas seems to be bearing down like a 10-ton truck, and I go away a week before that, so no shortage of things to doHeavy rain is forecast all day here, so I think we'll probably end up in one of the local museums, unless Matt has any ideas. I'm sure we'll get some lunch somewhere anyway

One of the maintenance guys I work with is always making egg sandwiches
I call it the Dennis snack. Since I'm feeling kind of weak this evening I decided to have a Dennis snack for a late supper.View attachment 2418683

It was the lenses that were wrong, rather than the frames, Mitch. The thing is, my prescription hadn't even changed!Jack 5 times? Nah I just end up adjusting them myself. The 1s I'm not used to are ultra light with thin ear pieces that feels odd.
It's been 4 years since I've had new 1s the greenies are creeping inyou used to get a hard plastic clamshell case. Now it's a felt covered cardboard 1 I can crush by hand.
I don't think they get irony, 90% of the glasses they sell are plastic!
My neighbour, Carlton, across the road, had to go back so many times he got the specs for free! For sure mate, been a bad year for weather here. Thanks mate
It's a couple of years, at least, since I last went to a BBQ, crazy! Hope you had a great time Don't forget your long johns today!

They look magnificent. There was an English food writer and well renowned cook many years ago, in one of her books she proclaimed an egg sandwich to be the best meal on earth. Fresh bread, buttered, a lightly fried egg in butter and some salt and pepper. Does not get any easier, and tastes fantastic. Protein, carbs and fat, the perfect meal.

Since I woke up and probably won't be able to get back to sleep. I haven't had a cup of coffee 
in over a week. So I got a cup of super stout coffee with some half & half in it. Probably only drink about half of it and save the other till later.

Muchas gracias por las amables palabras mi compa
Fabulous image Dwight
Looks like Tool Man's kind of snack David
That's shocking isn't it, considering how much they charge for specs, and how little they pay for the cases?
My optician started issuing some fancy cases with their more expensive glasses a few years ago, but they were a stupid size, and unpocketable I've been holding off getting a new one myself, in view of how I need some specs anyway, but I think I'm going to have to pick one up this week Cool pics Mitch Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone is doing good
Miserable weather here again today, but I have no shortage of things to do indoors, and if I go out it'll just be to the pub I'm carrying this

Beautiful Lamb! Cant remember the type of bone covers that Lamb has.Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone is doing good
Thank you Jack! Ended up drinking the whole cup of coffee instead of just half of it as originally planned.I know that feeling David, in spades
I was filing the run up on a Lamb to bring the blade up a bit higher and the next thing I knew the coffee was gone.

Well, good morning David! What fine ole lamb you have there. The treatment of the scales from long ago is always a treat to see.Since I woke up and probably won't be able to get back to sleep. I haven't had a cup of coffee

My morning pot of coffee is made and am enjoying the peacefulness too.
Hope you have a good day, in spite of the early start.
