Thanks Jack, it was quite a limited run Here is my Hartshead barlow. Like I said, the stag is a little underwhelming. Similar on the other side, at least they are well matched!

Thanks Ian, I'm afraid Wright's pulled a fast one on me with the stag on some of those knives I'm guessing it was one of the last sold/given away, certainly doesn't look like it's been used. I have photos of most of them, and you'll find others in this thread, but I don't have one of that particular knife. I hope you didn't pay too much for it, because I sold all those knives at LESS than they cost me to get made

Nice to see the Silent Lambsfoot Jer

Going to try to beat the heat.View attachment 2927034

Hope you're winning Bob! Cool pic buddy

Classic !

Thanks pal

There's no name on it, but the construction resembles these two TEWs, though it doesn't have the TEW raised eyebrow that interrupts the descent of the back from the tang. And it doesn't share the Wharnefoot blade shape. And the handle has a jauntier swayback.

(I tightened the radius on the bottom one here.)

Interesting comparison pics Jer

Jack thank you for sharing those boat photos from your old girlfriend. That boat looks like a beautiful old wooden schooner? I’d love to know any more details about it if she shared any. One of my favorite memories from my childhood is a 5 day family trip we had on a chartered wooden schooner that my grandfather set up. We sailed from Los Angeles harbor out into the deep water Pacific then back in and around Catalina Island. We slept on anchor and came ashore the undeveloped side of the island by rowboats a few times. What a trip and what a boat

What fantastic memories my friend Here's a few more pics of the Leader...







And here's the ship, a Brixham Trawler, (but see this), in all her glory

I have to say, I'm jealous!

Happy Wednesday morning, Guardians! I’m glad to be back home in Texas despite the building summer heat. My consolation is I can crack open my knife boxes again and carry whatever I want. First order of business: Espresso with waynorth Charlie’s posed next to a Canadian “toonie” I brought home from the boat trip View attachment 2927060
Here’s a photo my friend took of me walking down the dock after stepping off his trawler 3/4 Time, on my way to meet the uber ride to the airport in Traverse City, Michigan

Looking good Ken, I think the Ironwood models were probably the dishiest of those Damascus Lambs

Glad your safely home, Dave

I was aware of the "loonie", but had never heard of the "toonie", so off I went deep into the interweb and discovered it was issued in 1996. Pondering this for a minute I realized I have not been to Canada since 1992 It does not seem that long ago. Time certainly seems to compress as you age.

My in depth research also indicated the center part is "aluminum bronze". Something else I had never heard of, so off I went deeper into the interweb which led to pages of discussions of various copper alloys. Realizing I was spiraling I bailed

Good post. Thanks for the diversion
Oh yeah, the knife's nice too

Thanks for thinking of us Canadians!!

An early Loonie, when Queen Elizabeth was younger across from now king Charles, her son, when his ears were smaller!!! Ha Ha Ha!!!

(sculpted smaller to avoid embarrassment!!)(Canadian knife, non-Lamb, deleted!)

I thought you'd get a kick out of that, Charlie. We had a blast in Canada. The Trent-Severn Waterway is something to behold. As is Georgian Bay National Park. We anchored up among several of its 30000 islands.

LOL! They've definitely shrunk his ears Charlie, but the new Loonie is a more accurate representation of Old Big Ears than on the new British currency. On the notes, he has a crew-cut - he was already going bald as a teenager!

Great name for a Waterway!

Wow, 30,000 islands!

All right gents
Send some of that heat back. I just got back from my morning walk, 3c at 7am about 37f still only 5c at 8am. I did run into 1 other crazy rambler, told me how freezing it was as we passed. Mind you he had on shorts and no gloves

You should be able to feel the heat radiating from Georgia, Mitch. Feels like 97° at 6:30 pm.
Throw another log on!!
