Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Good morning Guardians. Another hot and sticky day here in southern coastal NC. Got some good rain yesterday that we really needed. Amazing how fast the grass greens up. HHB in the pocket today.

I hope everyone is having a good day :) I got some errands done in town, and had lunch with Wolfie in the market - Tunisian plates with mint tea, followed by vanilla slices and coffee 😋 :thumbsup:

Frustratingly, a lot of Sheffield knives were made without any marking at all, and their quality can be very good. Just one of the anomalies of the Sheffield cutlery industry. Fakes of various kinds go back to the earliest days of production, but it's a complicated issue - Iron knives marked steel, Sheffield knives pretending to be London, German-made razors re-stamped Sheffield. Joseph Rodgers was probably the firm most sinned against, within Sheffield, and all over the British Empire. As Lambsfoot collectors, it's unlikely to be a big issue, since their value is relatively small. Here's an odd one that was discussed here, a few years ago, when this knife popped up for sale, at no great cost. A very odd knife. I have no idea why anyone would go to the trouble of taking a Joseph Rodgers Lambsfoot, and re-stamping it as a Winchester! :rolleyes:

Lovely to see that beauty Dwight, that's some unusual swedging :cool: Great pic :) :thumbsup:

LOL! :D :thumbsup:

They probably thought they could fool an inexperienced collector into buying it for top dollar, thinking that they were getting a very rare Winchester. When that didn't pan out, they sold it for a lot less just to get their money back.

I've had to put it on every night for the past fortnight, evening temperatures are down in the 50's, as are a lot of daytime temperatures :( :thumbsup:

They went to some trouble! :rolleyes: Obviously, since Winchester never made a Lambsfoot, the pattern number doesn't match! 😖 :thumbsup:

Cool pic David :cool: :thumbsup:
 
It's going to be down in the 50's all day here tomorrow, possibly as low as 52, and perhaps with some rain :rolleyes: It's Market Day though, so I shall be down there as a witness to its continued decline, but hopefully having a few interesting encounters along the way ;) The Chieftain hasn't been out for a while, so I shall correct that :thumbsup:
