Good afternoon Guardians, I hope everyone is doing ell, and having a good day. I am back from the market, but I have some work to do later, including an online conference. It was good to see Tool Man, who was in good form, and we had the usual visitors, including Gravel, Boring Ray, Harry Hotballs, Barry The Original Ted, Captain Birdseye, Shirley, Slimline Scott, Owd Brian, Big J, Ex-Para Steve, Nobber Al, and Billy The Ted. Gravel got the sausage rolls, while I got coffee and doughnuts, and Tool Man even put his hand in his pocket for some cake. I wandered over to Maurizio's stall, where he was arranging model soldiers, one of which had a broken bow unfortunately.
Boring Ray had acquired some new junk for his stall, and is shown at work here, trying to sell what he claimed was an improbably undersized vintage fireman's helmet, from some central European country
Tool Man having a conversation with the thick-accented (and also thick) Harry Hotballs
Owd Brian doing a very poor impression of Paddington Bear
This Rosecraft Double-Bolstered Lambsfoot had its maiden voyage to the market, and returned unharmed

I love old Knives, and I really love these Old Lambsfoot Knives in this Thtread- awesome.
Ebony can be quite simplistic, But Ebony holds it's own surprises in the highlights of the Wood and adds such Quality to a Knife - here is the perfect example.Morning Guardians! Another nice autumn day around these parts. Hope y'all have a good one. Off to the cardiologist. Happy trails

Thankfully not Pat, just some unkempt ones!Thanks, Jack. Sounds like a good time at the market, I hope you didn't run into any more unruly strangers!
Thanks Kurt, Harry is from an old mining town called Normanton, and has the broadest of Yorkshire accents. A decade ago, he used to always call at a stall in the indoor market, and buy a foil pouch of their hot sausage-meat balls. He'd offer them round at the Tool Stall, "Does tha want 'ot ball?"I enjoyed the Market Report and the pics Jack. Iβm kinda curious how Harry Hotballs got his nickname. But maybe not. Tool Man looks in fine form thereβ¦not eating anything. Probably a hard picture to get. I hope you like your Rosecraft. I donβt mind D2 at all.
Hereβs a picture showing off these fine covers. Cosimoβs brilliantly dyed and jigged bone and Willemβs smooth and buttery rams horn.
I have avoided becoming the lionβs Kurt Butty. The lion might have made a sandwich out of one of the turkeys though. Almost Thanksgiving.

A decade ago, he used to always call at a stall in the indoor market, and buy a foil pouch of their hot sausage-meat balls. He'd offer them round at the Tool Stall, "Does tha want 'ot ball?"It is certainly unusual to see Tool Man not actually eating, I can only surmise that he had only just finished off a piece of cake
Thank you, I have quite a few knives in D2, though only a handful are folders
Happy Double Lambsfoot Day, my friend, that's a fine-looking pair
