Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Thanks mate That's a beautiful Lamb, and it looks a lot better leaning against your Landrover, than Tool Man does against his!

That picture of Tool Man next to the Rover reminds me what my older brother used to say, "Never trust a man who wears a belt and suspenders!"

Berry is still riding fine.

Sweet

Yesterday Jack Purcell aka Hatchet_Jack made my day! A package from the Land down Under arrived at my house. Jack gifted me an absolutely beautiful Max Sao lamb foot. He told me it was his way of saying thank you for welcoming him to the Forum and the Guardians. It is people like Jack who make the Forum a special place! From the bottom of my heart thanks again Jack!

Nice Jeff.

Better than having them fall down around his knees in front of you!

Kudos to Jack.

Sorry Steve, I think I may have only mentioned it in passing. York Railway Station has an attractive old footbridge, crossing over the tracks. Unfortunately, while descending it, and going round a corner, with Duncan behind me, my left foot slipped off the edge of one of the steps. The rucsac I was carrying further threw me off balance, and I went flying. Most of the impact was on the corner of one of the other steps, which I hit with my right knee just below my patella. While I suffered other minor injuries, and damaged the screen of my phone, my right knee swelled up immediately. I broke my right tibia 22 years ago, and it has a steel rod inside the tibia, which runs all the way to the tip of my patella. I am worried that the impact may have moved, or dislodged the steel rod Thanks buddy

Oh no! Hate to hear that, Jack. Hopefully there’s no lasting damage.

Have a good evening gents.

Great pic, Dwight!

Bob, that's an absolutely glorious pair of lambs! I'm sitting here after work with Berry in pocket.

It’s looking fantastic there, Jeff.

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!

It’s good to see you here, Greg!

I'm a bit under the weather today, as I seem to have picked up a cold. It might be Covid too, as there's plenty going around here

You probably picked something up at the hospital.

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!

It’s not a dish you see up this way too often, GT, and while my luck with southern dishes in MN has been pretty hit or miss, this one was pretty good.

I'm with you on the mushy peas Gary I remembered to put the veg on tonight

Looks tasty, Jack.

Work week is over and done at the leather workbench for the night, time to relax.

Nice pic, Jeremy. Your Waynorth Lamb is looking great. I think you might need a new bottle of Buffalo Trace soon.

Same here Jeremy. Have a good one...

That’s awesome! Very kind gesture by Jack, and a very unique Lambsfoot.

I had a few Lambsfoot-less days this week — the horror! — as I wanted to give a couple non-Lambsfoot straight-edge knives some pocket time, but I’ve got my 2024 Albers Guardians knife back in my pocket this morning. We’re going over to the neighbors’ for a Halloween party later tonight, so last night I made a batch of pimento cheese to take with us. Of course I had to do a little taste test it to make sure it was ok.

I hope we see some costume pics later Barrett.
My, how that lamb is popular.

A fine composition there my friend

Thanks a lot mate

You probably picked something up at the hospital.

Quite possibly, but so far, it's been very mild

Looks tasty, Jack.

Thanks mate

Looks good Barrett Are the girls wearing their costumes? Have a great time

I wanted to christen a piece of table cutlery Johnnythefox sent me, and while I was cooking, I had a hankering for a glass of wine This Lebanese wine is one of my favourites, but it went from under £10 a bottle, in the 1980's, to unobtainable, so I don't get to drink it too often these days. I'd been saving my last bottle for a special occasion, but they keep passing by, so what the hey!

Seems like a good time to relax and sip, after the week you have endured.

Thanks David, hope you are having some great Fall weather out there.

Thank you for the comments on the photos- Steve my friend- apologies for using the forest settings- I am in a strange land lol and take the opportunity when I can. I need to find my old bits of wood and perfect light like I used to have- hard to find in my new dwelling.

Thinking of you Jack and a Speedy recovery my friend.
Tomorrow may be a quiet day to get a few treasures out to go over them

Here are a shot beside a Canal where Sue and I drive out to get a Pint and Pub Butty Sandwich

Simplicity at it's best Jack.

I’ve always wondered, is that knife as perfectly executed as it looks?! It’s a beauty.
