Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[cudgee]

A days work is about 3 to 4 hrs now.

Yes mate, but think of how much we can under achieve while looking extremely busy.

Good evening all!

Some like it hot. Some like it sweet. All (who’ve tried one, at least) like a lambsfoot!



I’ll spare ya’ll the details, but, a couple of years ago, a serious (non-lambsfoot) knife-related injury put me off of Very Sharp Things for a spell. I’m long past that, but it’s taken a might longer to feel the itch to be totin’ a cutting tool in my pocket. Of course, it was a lambsfoot I reached for! The pictures above are “my knife”, an A. Wright Buffalo-clad model that was my introduction to the pattern and my most frequent carry. I owe it a spa day, but after some power stropping on the Tormek leather wheel it’s back to acceptable slicing shape.

I see a lot of new names and lambsfoot knives since I last frequented The Porch. I’m looking forward to getting to know my new fellow guardians!

Cheers Steve, I was only there for about 3 hours, and I'm afraid it was pretty quiet, and uneventful Stunning photo my friend

Enjoyed the market report buddy

Thanks mate, great shot of your Albers

Gracias amigo.

It's amazing. When I worked 50 hrs a week and took care of 50 residential lawns at the same time I still managed to get more done around the home front that I do now! A days work is about 3 to 4 hrs now.

Yeah, time goes kind of weird as you get older!

Great market pics Jack. I can't get enough of your latest CDB creation.

Thanks pal, I'm finding it hard to put down

Superb pic Dwight, and I love the coin too

Two beauties Jack.

I wish you a fast recovery, and may it just be the flu.

Seeing that jigging makes me want to cut a jig across the floor.

Julie got shrimp and grits, which I almost got myself.

I don't think I've ever been to a restaurant that had shrimp and grits on the menu, and I don't think I have enough time left on "this mortal coil" to work up the courage to order it, even if I find an establishment that offers it!

...

Lovely have a good day Gary!

Thanks, David.

No wonder the Victorians suffered high infant mortality!
...

... I decided to have bangers and mash for tea, but it was only when I was mashing the potatoes that I realised I'd forgotten to cook the vegetables So baked beans had to come to the rescue! Shhhh You can get away with a few culinary faux-pas's when you live on your own

Victorian medicine doesn't seem to be England's finest hour, Jack!
When you live on your own, you get to eat what you want, too! I'd definitely choose the baked beans over, say, mushy peas.

That's a special one !

Thanks, Steve.

Exemplary edge on your ebony lamb, Jer!
For reasons I don't understand, I'm still trying to sharpen my ebony lambsfoot to my satisfaction.

A real beauty

Good to see those again

Thanks for the kind comments, David and Jack.

And I’m glad to have been a “judge”. I feel like Sammy Davis Jr. on Laugh-In.

WW! I haven't thought about Laugh-in and "here comes da judge" in a very long time!

We've got 30 mph winds and almost no rain down in not-at-all sunny South Florida. I've just watched a weather update which explained that Miami is on the dry side of the storm so if you still don't believe in witchcraft (pronounced "brujeria" in these parts - I'd say it's as good a time as any to reconsider your position.

Great to see Palomino, Bob. I'm back home after the hurricane and the house had little damage. The power is still on so didn't lose any food, either. Thanks to all for your prayers and concern. We're fine. I had Roper and Berry on me for protection!

Will & Jeff, I'm thankful you came through the latest hurricane relatively unscathed!

I'm also thankful that I've been a Guardian of the Lambsfoot during the era when 2 classic patterns were introduced by fellow Guardians Jack and Charlie. There are always lots of lambsfoot knives deserving of praise posted in this thread, but this time I decided to focus on Hartshead Barlows and the jigged bone WCLF. Thanks to those of you who posted the pretty pictures that follow!

Good morning Guardians. Beautiful morning here in NC. Off to play the links. Will be carrying my HHB again - what a great knife it is!

Starting to really feel like fall where I’m at, so of course the “dark chestnut jigged bone” was a natural choice.

Had an exciting surprise waiting at the post office today. It was pure luck I ended up chatting with a guy willing to pass this beauty on.

I’ll try to grab a better photo tomorrow, bit busy at work today.

Good afternoon Guardians! Been a really hectic 2 weeks or so..... Trying to read back through the thread, but I might have to just start fresh again.

This one's been with me the whole time
