Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[Rufus1949]

It's been a great year for lamb watching from the porch.
I hope the coming year brings health and happiness to everyone and their families.

Something old, something new....

Same to you Bob! I love that photo. The "something new" is a little spooky...

Good morning and Happy New Years Eve Guardians! Starting off with a cold but sunny morning here in southern coastal NC. 42 deg F. Guess "cold" is a relative term. I have my HHB with me today and a hot cup of tea.

Thanks a lot Dwight, making it difficult for me to eat Gorgeous photo buddy

Sorry to hear about your continued dental fiasco (probably a better word for the situation but not family friendly). Good looking Albers, hope the new year is better to you.

Thank you Jeremy, very kind of you You too my friend

It certainly has Bill Those two are very appropriate

Enjoy seeing in the New Year folks I opened a bottle of wine to have a glass with spaghetti, meatballs, and arabiatta sauce. Struggled to eat the food, but the wine is going down easier I've spent a lot of hours editing my photos, but going to take a break now, and watch a movie or something

Jack, I do hope you find relief soon. May the new year improve upon this last one for you.

Good afternoon Guardians !

The last day of the year and it's finally looking like winter around here. We got about an inch or so of snow overnight buty the ice is still dangerously thin. Not good for all the ice fisherman.

I'm carrying Gidget today







Happy New Year to those who are already in 2024 and Happy New Years eve to the rest of us !

Gidget is looking fine, Steve. Did someone use a soap machine in the background to make that white stuff?

Very kind of you to say Jeremy.

I'm late posting this (there never seem to be enough hours in the day lately), so I apologize.

I went back and forth over having the lambfoot that Jack Black gifted me re-covered... But in the end, I just couldn't bring myself to have a gift knife modified. So instead, I had my desert ironwood Guardians knife recovered! The knife had some fairly plain desert ironwood, large gaps, and a pretty off-centered blade, so I thought it was a good candidate.

The original plan was to use some vintage, U.K. made tufnol that I pulled off a ship's block (pulley), but it ended up being a bit too thin. So instead, we used some vintage, U.K. made Tufnol from the aircraft industry. The patina isn't as heavy, but it's a lovely material.

The work was done by the very talented David, who goes by Slipjoint_spa on instagram. One of the best parts about dealing materials is the wonderfully skilled makers you meet. It wasn't possible to completely fix some of the fit issues, but they have been greatly improved. I'm extremely pleased with how it turned out.

What a grand transition Brian.
As with you, I feel gifted knives carry sentiments that should not be altered.
