" Kudos " to you and your lamb Kurt.Good Tuesday to you Guardians. We have a break in the rain here. It’s nice to sit outside. Have my K’roo this morning. Later this afternoon I am having a tooth attended to. I broke a piece of it off on Saturday. No pain except it is sharp as a knife where a piece broke off. My tongue is not happy. My dentist is great though. I expect a coronation.At the dentist I put up a brave front. But in my mind I’m like one of those videos of a french bulldog screaming as it sees the toenail clippers coming towards it.

Micarta is starting to grow on me. Did not care for it at first but starting to really like it now.Possibly from the same bunch of SFOs as this one?![]()
Thanks Paul, I fell asleep for an hour around 6pm, went to sleep about 11.30pm, then woke up at 2.45am, and struggled to sleep all night![]()

I go through bouts of not sleeping well due to a chronic back injury sometimes. During flair ups I have to sleep in a recliner as that is the only position my back can be in to get any sleep. I wish you a restful night tonight.
Rotten luck on the weather, Jack. Waboom is a stunner.
the horror!!!
Good gracious great balls of fire, Bob. Sweet lamb

Very nice. Very interesting covers.Yes it is Kudu. The dye didn’t take much on the pile side. Here’s the show side.

Very nice burl on your May lamb.Thanks, Steve, Dwight, Rufus, echoscout, cudgee, and Jack for the nice comments on the old Oates.
Here is a recent purchase of an M. May which seems quite decent. It's resting nicely on a stout indoor plant.

I stupidly sold one then regretted it and have struggled to get one back, but today I'm once again a guardian of the lambsfoot

Totally mate, I always think I only like moderately spicy condiments, but based on recent experience, I'm beginning to wonder! I do remember, when I was younger, 'acclimatising' pretty quickly, so maybe that has started to happen again
Wow Barrett, what an amazing group shot!![]()

I really like this knife, the only flaw it could of had more pronounced nail nick but it's liveable.

After having nearly a week of below 0 temperatures, this coming week of slightly above freezing temps will feel like Hawaii around here.
Had a good Mexican lunch today to get into the warming spirit...

Hope you're going to get your Hawaii shirt out to celebrate!![]()
Ever since I got the Albers ironwood last year it has been in my pocket. I’d been curious about the infamous pull of the Sheffield lambs, so I got one. I can barely get it openI like it but the Albers is definitely on a different level and hence a daily carry for me.

Snow is GONE!! Warmer weather, and I am sitting and oiling and checking Safe Queens!!

Hard pull - a little too hard!!
Funny story……I casually strolled to the mailbox to grab some long awaited packages and boooooom. Slipped on some ice and I swear my feet were over my head. Got up real quick embarrassed as hell. Thank god I live in the sticks……or so I thought. The nice old lady that lives a ways down the street called and made sure I was ok
. She saw everything!!!!!! My wife is still laughing.
Double lamb day!!!! Although I forgot to put the horn lamb in the picture. Tray was a very generous gift from Jeremy.
