Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[Jack Black]

Remember..NO LIMBO Jack!!!

I FEEL like I've been limboing Bob!

Thanks Jack
All in the lighting, plenty of scratches. I was amazed that I got a good picture as glasses on the table took a heap

Have a great day, don't get sun burnt.

Thanks a lot mate, last time I got sunburnt here was about 1975!

Good day all.

I was just wondering what that one was! Great pic my friend

Yep, the turtles are all doing great Dwight. I'm glad lamb isn’t in their diet!

Have fun Jack!

Tons of character Bob.

Thanks Todd, cool pic

Hope you and GL-24 have a great day at the carnival

Thanks a lot David, my GL-24 looks a lot better than I feel today!

Hope you're having a great time Jack !

Thanks Steve, I had a fab time

Double Micarta to start the week off

I'm going to be hiding in the AC today as it's nasty outside. Dew point of 77° Humidity 78 % and a high of 93°
Excessive heat warning and Hazardous weather warning for severe thunderstorms with hail for this afternoon .

Happy Double Lambsfoot day buddy, I hope you get some more comfortable weather soon

It's going to be a hot week around here too, so I made sure to get outside and get my knife pic early! I sure hope it's not perched on some kind of poison weed plant else I'm screwed.

I don't think I've ever seen better-looking micarta than this Nice pc Pat

Thanks, Jack. It was a good day (if a bit hot). Hope you’re having a good day at Carnival!

Thanks mate, a bit TOO good! Not sure how I managed to drink 1 1/2 bottles of rum, and 4 pints of stout!

Morning Guardians! Stay frosty

Handsome Lamb David

Good morning Guardians! I made some salsa for the first time this weekend!

It made for a good-looking pic too

Looking good Tyson

Thanks Jack. Great pictures of the festivities!

Thanks pal, I'll try to post some more at some point

Love that pic! What a great Lamb

Perhaps when he gets out of hospital we will have a dram together.

I sure hope he's out soon Bob

Thanks, Jack.
I don't know what the "average active duration" of BF threads is, in terms of days or posts, but I'd guess the "half-life" is FAR shorter than that for this Guardians thread! Buddy Holly said it best (I'm paraphrasing slightly):
I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna be
You're gonna show your lambs to me
A thread to last more than one day
The lambsfoot thread will not fade away.


That was VERY informative!!

Very good Gary It's nice to see Black Jack

Starting another week. Hopefully this one will be less hectic than last week.

Good luck Jeremy That's a handsome photo

ATTENTION - If you want to see a Lambsfoot, and i mean a stunning Lambsfoot go and have a look at the " Very Generous Gift From Glennbad " thread. It is simply stunning. And the generosity is also mind blowing.

I'll definitely check that out Leon

Just noticed, there has already been a thousand posts since we hit the last milestone. Some threads don't even have a thousand posts. Amazing.

Back on track content.

Thanks mate, that's some lovely wood

Sweet pic Steve

For reasons I don’t know I get sick too often, anyway Sunday/Monday was another one of them. I was sitting out on the verandah yesterday afternoon getting some fresh air while doing work on my iPad. My wife came down the driveway with the kids and hopped out of the car laughing. I entertained her and asked what was so funny.

As they were coming in here I was sitting down in my flat cap slumped forward typing away and my six year old Flynn (picture an innocent but Australian accent) “hey mum, whos that old bloke sitting on the verandah”. Hannah laughed so hard because she wondered the same thing!

I asked him why did you think I was old, he said “because of your hat, you like a pop”.

33 and I’m already looking like a grandfather!

That was a little while back. I had almost forgot about it myself.

It took me a minute to get used to the sway of the handle but after some use I quickly realized just how ergonomic it is.


I hadn't carried this little one for awhile so I put it to work cutting up stuff for a omelet.

Great pic Kevin

Thanks Jack! Living here is like having a low grade fever from May to September.

You must be looking forward to winter Pete!

#2 today.

Interesting shot

I came home from 11 days away from the internet to find I was over 60 pages behind on this thread. I don't post much, but, do like to read every post, although I have to admit mostly for the pics. Anyway took me a few days to catch up. Here are my two lambsfoot knives. Easy to see which one gets the most use. In fact, the Waynorth lamb has been my carry since the day I got it a few months ago.

I'm not surprised! Cool image, comparing those two good-looking Lambs

Have a good evening all...

Wow! That's a beauty Dwight

Hello Guardians !
Today we crossed the border into the good old and brought home to a very beautiful lamb !
An incredible knife from a very generous Guardian !
Muchisimas gracias Rufus1949 !

An amazing brand new lamb with great action, centering, jigging and looks !
I will treasure it 4ever !

Congratulations Dan, that's a wonderful Lamb, great pics my friend

Personally, I like a good flat cap, but then I also have almost 20 years on you.

This Italian flat cap actually came from an Australian shop (go figure; most Americans don't know what a good hat is ).... threw it in with an Akubra I was desperate for.

It's the only thing about winter I look forward to! Nice pic buddy

View attachment 2646449

Such a great-looking knife

Good choices in hats and knives!

We’re hitting spring, so soon I’ll transition from flat cap to Akubra. I run the Coober Pedy, it’s not as top Hatty as the photo makes it look.

An instant classic needs a classic shot.

Good night to some, good morning to others. View attachment 2646556

Smashing Lamb Bob

Good morning Guardians. Off to play 18 this morning. Normally I do not carry any Lambsfoot knives with me while golfing. Too darn easy to lose them. I have an SAK clipped to my golf bag but even with all those precautions I have still lost knives. All that being said, I will be carrying my trusty HHB once I return home.

Hope you had a great round Bill

Good afternoon Guardians, had a great Carnival, but made the mistake of sitting out on my wall to have a few more rums. Not sure where all the rum went, but I went through a bottle and a half! Paying for it today, and I'm off out to meet Matt in a couple of hours. I certainly won't be drinking! We're off to catch a movie Thank you for getting the mix of good crack (yes, that is spelled correctly) and Lambsfoot content right Guardians, I am grateful Hope your week gets off to a great start

It's going to be hot enough to kill people today.
I trust that will turn out to be melodramatic hyperbole, but it's going to be hot.

Mate you need to spend a couple extra $ and buy bottles with no holes, otherwise the liquid keeps drainag away

Have a great day and enjoy the movie.

Happy Double Lambsfoot day buddy, I hope you get some more comfortable weather soon




Sweet pic Steve

Thanks Jack, the weather is much cooler today after a major storm came through last night.

We had some damage here to our trees but not the buildings. Power out in the neighborhood but ours stayed on. Sad to see this maple tree below my deck so damaged. Our tree company was here this morning to remove the downed limbs and doesn't think that it will be able to be saved.

Have a great day everyone !

Was a great surprise.
Where are they? Probably at home. A lot of public servants still want to work from home, carry over from covid..
The NSW Premier (like state governer) put his foot down recently and insisted state public servants go back to office work. Of course that ls being fought.

Kinda hard to be a mailman from home (or a customs agent, for that matter), but I’m sure that hasn’t stopped some from trying.

Good night to some, good morning to others. View attachment 2646556

That’s a good looking snakewood Albers Lambsfoot, Bob.

Thanks mate, a bit TOO good! Not sure how I managed to drink 1 1/2 bottles of rum, and 4 pints of stout!

Natural talent and years of practice!

Sorry to hear about the trees, Steve, but I’m glad no other damage was done.

We had tornado sirens start going off last night right as I was about to start dinner, so the girls and I headed to the basement (Julie was on her way home from work). Then the power went out. Thankfully the storm didn’t last long, but we didn’t get power back until 1 am, so it was PB&J sandwiches for dinner.

Soon, it will be hurricane season for us. Then there will be lots of PB&J for us.

Thanks Barrett, glad your power wasn't out long. Some are still without over here in Bloomington.

LOL GT
Gracias mi amigo !

I am afraid all that experience with feral creatures was of no help this time lol

My strategy was to guess/count the number of beans on the uppermost layer.
I then I guessed the number of "layers" that it would take to go all the way to the lowest one.
I then guessed that each layer would have about 10 beans less than the previous upper one.
I added it all up and "BINGO"
As you see I did an awful lot of "guessing" lol



Oh no worries at all GT, apology accepted
