Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

The only disappointing thing was seeing that a famous old York pub, which Peregrin Peregrin visited with his son, and where me and Duncan had lunch, has been re-branded . It is now a "party bar" and live music venue, with a mock "Irish" theme, run by an irritating young man, with Dutch heritage :(

Thanks guys, it was a shock seeing that the pub name had been changed, but when I looked into it, the news was even worse :( I'm sure both Peregrin Peregrin and Campbellclanman will be saddened too :(
I'm sorry to hear that. The Maltings was one of my son's favorite pubs while studying at The University of York. He took us to the pub when we visited him some years ago. I felt right at home there. Sounds like I wouldn't feel that way now.

Mea Culpa!! I just realized I never formally submitted my application to be a guardian.😱 I guess I am on double secret probation.
A self imposed day of plinking is in order.

Much gratitude is extended to Jack Black, for this fine catty. Fit and finish is on par with a Cosimo lamb. Thank you my friend.

😂 As long as that is the only thing he passes on.
Thanks Jack.
LOL! :D It's a wonder Bob, Tool Man is a walking health hazard! :eek: :D
Thank you gentlemen, the may very well be close to what it originally looked like. There was a specific knife I saw that had the same horizontal jigging but also with the vertical scuffs inside the jigging. I quoted it with a photo of this lamb. I just don’t recall where.

I’m trying to work on recreating the knife with a custom maker and would really like to nut out how it would have looked new.

(Nothing stands out I have to say :()
Sweet :cool: :thumbsup:

The Barret,
Had severe summer storms last night. We came through but about 140,000 homes with out power in the region.
Yikes! I hope it's back on soon Mitch :thumbsup:
I took my nephew to the range for his first experience with a pistol recently. This .22 was the one.

With the upcoming CC lamb release, I’ve decided to carry this ebony example for the rest of the month. It’s such a good knife!

Nice Ruger Pete :cool: I used to target shoot a lot of .22 back in the 80's :thumbsup:

This one has been getting more pocket time lately.
Nice :) :thumbsup:
I have ordered another lambsfoot, this one a large one in ebony. I've enjoyed my lambsfoot blade "Barlow" in ebony so I figure I might enjoy this one more than my rosewood. Maybe I just need an excuse to buy another knife.

Good luck :) :thumbsup:

It's very sad Gary, even the fellers at Leeds market were moaning about it today :(

I need to buy a book on Catalan, as I am headed to Girona for a few days at the end of March :thumbsup:

Good afternoon Guardians, I am just back from the market. Next week will be the last time Tool Man will be there for at least 6 weeks, as he is going into hospital for a long-awaited hip operation. Boring Ray's wife had made us a giant sausage roll, of which Tool Man immediately ate half.

Later, when Shirley, brought down some chocolate fingers, the fat lump handed them out like Captain Scott, rationing chocolate on Christmas Day, and shoved the rest down his fat neck by the handful! :rolleyes: Before sending Gravel off to buy some bhajis :eek:

I hope you get on well with it my friend, nice pairing there :) I like the square frame corners on the Spitfire, great for aiming :thumbsup:

I wish toolman a quick recovery. If all goes well, he should be using a walker the next day. Doctors here, want you on your feet as soon as possible.
 

Cheers Jack !

You too Jack, thanks for the report !

Best wishes to Toolman and a fast recovery 👍

I'm sure they will want Tool Man on his feet as soon as possible Bob - and out of the door! 🤣 🤣 :thumbsup:
I am amazed how quick it was to zero it in, after a band adjustment.
Great! :) That's what I found too, just amazing :cool: Hope you enjoy your plinking session my friend, I might join you ;) :D :thumbsup:
Cheers Jack !

Thanks Steve, I suspect he will bypass the walker, and go straight to his Jaguar! :rolleyes: :thumbsup:
 
Glad to see Tool Man in top form!!! Can’t wait to meet him one day. I’m gonna attempt to eat everything he eats in one day 😂. Slow work day but this Goldilocks lamb is making it better. I’m a fan of this blade combo. A nice straight edge and a sweet Spey with some belly has proven to be real useful.

After much thought. I’m getting it recovered. Can’t get over the plasticky coat on it. I’m torn on what material to go with. Any thoughts? My first inclination was stag of course but I only hesitate because it’s already a thick puppy. I’m leaning towards nice piece of golden streaked horn.

Amazing jigging on your Cosimo.
The bolster is perfect for that lamb.👍🏻
Thanks, Bob. Glad that many have this one now.
Thursday seems a rotten week to start work mate :rolleyes: Unless you finish Friday that is! 🤣 Looking good there my friend :) :thumbsup:
My schedule is odd. Nice being off Monday-Wednesday though. While everyone is working I can get a lot of things done without too much fuss.
Nice one Paul 👍
Thanks, Steve.

I think some streaked horn would be appropriate or some nice Ebony.
