Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Happy Tuesday morning, Guardians! Rose Burl with my espresso this morning. Spring is in full swing here in Dallas. I got out for some flyfishing yesterday afternoon with friends. We have some lovely local Austin chalk stone streams close in town. Fishing was slow but we did pick up a few dozen green sunfish which is good fun on a lightweight fiberglass rod.

Took the group out for a little oil and wipe down. The Albers will go back in the pocket for the day I think. View attachment 2855653

Today I learned:
In the game of Brag (a variant of Poker), "prial" refers to three cards of the same rank, similar to "three of a kind" in other card games. The term is derived from "pair royal" and is used to describe this specific hand. For example, three sevens would be called "a prial of sevens".

Looks like I spelled it wrong! 😖 🤣 👍
 
Another glorious day shift!!!! Back to nights tomorrow 😢. Got the Trevor Ablett in the pocket today. I’m about 95% sure he made this knife so I’m going with it.

I should hate this knife. It has brass bolsters, has plastic scales, and is stainless. Weirdly I like it a lot. It reminds me of an A Wright that is built better. Action is silky smooth with nice snap and pull weight. I bought it thinking I was gonna have Glenn do something cool with it but I think I will keep it original just as Mr Ablett made it. I’m told he made 1000s of knives as a regular cutler for various companies and only started to stamp his name on them later in his Cutler career.

Good day Guardians !

Busy day today. I'm project managing the painting project for our Townhouse Association. Painters started today with powerwashing and prep. I spend half my morning running around getting people to shut their windows, even although they've had ample notice that we were starting today. 😲



Albert Oates today

Are you sure that's stainless Paul? I remember picking up a knife very much like that in an antique shop about a dozen years back. I figured it might have been made by Trevor. I gifted it to an old member pmew pmew , but unfortunately I don't have a pic :(

Have you ever fished the Blue River or the Mountain Fork River here in OK?

Now that you mention it, it might be carbon. I cut a lemon in Eugene with it and let it sit some and didn’t notice anything. I’m looking at it now and I do see carbon spots🤷. I’m thinking the super High gloss and smooth finish might have repelled the lemon fairly well.

A good polish makes a big difference Paul :) I'd be surprised if it were stainless :thumbsup:

I’m pretty sure it is carbon steel now that I’m going over it closely. Thanks for the nudge Jack.
