Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[Fodderwing]

Good afternoon Guardians! It's been way too long since I've been on here, and I have missed it terribly. I've been dealing with things that have been out of my control, but I think that things are getting back to normal for me now- fingers crossed!
What better way to celebrate than with a Charlie Lamb on a beautiful sunny afternoon!
I hope everyone is doing well. I know it's going to take me quite a while to get caught up, but I will take it as I have time!

Hey Ken. Glad you are back and I hope it's fair winds and following seas my friend.

Went down to Everglades National Park to watch the sunset with my GF and a buddy of mine named "Holiber."

"Holiber" is of Venezuelan descent, and I've found they have a knack for spelling fairly ordinary names in a quite counterintuitive fashion. Case in point, "Holiber" refers to himself, as "Oliver." I had another Venezuelan friend named "Dayanha" - pronounced "Diana." Looks so exotic - sounds so pedestrian. It seems they really have a thing for the silent H's.

Back to the sunset. I happened to have my trusty DIW GEC 88 on me, so I took a few pics. Why didn't I have the gator-shielded variant with me, you ask? Because I really didn't think things through - next time!

Good night, Guardians!

Thank you Jack! It's been a heck of a ride, but I'm happy to be back!

I hope it's plain sailing from here on in Ken, it's good to have you back

That's really interesting Jack!

Hope you didn't have to work to hard today. Still awesome Lamb

Thanks David, it's a long time since I chased work, but it always finds me in the end! I was at it until 8pm last night, and it's going to be the same today, I reckon. I might even have to cut my trip to the market short

Morning all

Cool pic Mitch

Evening Guardians! William Rodgers Lamb

There sure were an awful lot of knives produced under that name That's a nice one my friend

Here's one Charlie waynorth very generously sent me a few years back

Well, Spring has arrived at least for me. Don’t know why A. Wright doesn’t offer their lambs in jigged bone anymore. I believe these we offered in blue, green and red. One of my first lambs.

Good news Dan, still raining here! That's right, though sometimes the green looked more like a brown. I tried getting hold of one of those, but they never made very many, which I understand was down to lack of demand. It's worth noting that the A. Wright site is not actually theirs, but the site of a Sheffield dealer, so it could be that the factory does still make them, but for other retailers

Terrific trio my friend, outstanding

Thank you Sir. From left to right: Cranberry Red Jigged, Tangerine Jigged, American Bone Jigged.

Haven’t been too active the last couple of days. I’ll get back on the wagon tomorrow. Hope everyone is well. Carried the K roo lamb today. Will update with picture in a bit.

Hope everything is OK buddy, and that you're still looking forward to the knife show

Enjoy a great smoke, have a nice evening/morning Guardians.

Great pic Todd, that sure is some lovely wood

Brilliant!

Not the same thing, but I have a neighbour from the Ivory Coast, where they speak French. He originally introduced himself as John. I asked him, is it John or Jean? He told me it was the latter, so I told the other neighbours he was called Jean. The next day he told me he preferred to be called Steven, rather than Jean. I asked him if that was Steven or Stephane. Turns out it was Stephane. I asked him why he told me he was called Jean, and he said his name was Jean Stephane, but everybody calls him Stephane He had introduced his adult daughter as Mary, but it later transpired she was actually called Marie. Then they started referring to her as Emma. When I asked why they called her Emma, I was told, "Oh, we like calling her Emma." They actually seem to alternate between both names. His missus is English, but with Ivory Coast ancestry. She's called Si-Si, but her real name is something else. One of their two daughters is called Bella, but they also call her Si-Si sometimes. I've given up trying to remember what the youngest is called! They just call me 'Uncle' or 'Mr Jack'!

Good morning Guardians, well there goes an hour! I hope everyone is doing OK, and that the week has turned out to be a good one for you There was much talk of spring here in Yorkshire yesterday, but it's raining again today I'm going to be stuck indoors anyway, unfortunately, so I better get down to it Have a good day Guardians

The irony is I don't like cakes, the kids do though.
They did give me a VIP card when I first walked in

Spring sure has a way of teasing us. Looks like you’re in good company Jack.

Nice !

Stellar stag !

Good morning Guardians. Much warmer this morning but still on the cool side. Going for my morning stroll a little later today. My Senator is doing back flips over being my companion. I love the file work on this knife too.

 

[Jack Black]

Sure does Todd! Thanks pal

Noooo!

It is a bit like that Jer! OTW is looking good I've steamed into my work this morning, and reckon, if I work late, I'll be able to get it done tonight. So I should be able to get down to the market, but then I have some more work coming around lunchtime I'm afraid

I like that stag Todd, is that a new one?

What a beauty !





Nice !

Thank you Steve

Enjoy your stroll Bill It's milder here, but I think there is yet more rain on the way

I had to pick something up from the printers, so since I'll be working late, I figured I'd fuel up at Charlie's



The prescription of my new reading specs is actually noticeably less strong than my old pair. Suits me better, but I have to wonder what they were playing at last time round

I'm picking up my new Ducks Unlimited (cheapest aviator frames) transition progressives today. I got distracted yesterday.
