Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

It's white Wednesday.

My orange tree is thriving in spite of me!

And this morning I hear my Westminster-chiming mantle clock without my hearing aids better than I did yesterday with my jacked-up hearing aids in place.
I'm going to find Pat Benatar's Crazy and see how that sounds.
[Loud and fairly clear.]

Glad you can once more enjoy Pat Benatar Jer There was a case here, in the 1980's, where an old man, who had been deaf in one ear most of his life, had a bus-ticket removed from the ear. The date of the ticket placed it in the man's school days, when he vaguely remembered putting it in there! Looking online to try and find a link to the story, I actually found several similar cases!

It's white Wednesday.

Thanks again, Bob and Tyson, for a fantastic knife I'd never dreamed of having!

From the super generous to the super gracious, a fitting transfer. Good on ya, Tyson, for making it possible.

Hoping that change for the better is permanent.

Many of you may remember that I was on the business end of double-barreled generosity back on Labor Day. That's the day Bob Rufus1949 announced the winner of his latest extremely generous estimation game, and the winning estimate was provided by @Tyson A Wright, who very generously decided that he was entering on my behalf. A big thank you to both of those gentlemen for their magnanimity!

Today I picked up the package that Bob mailed containing the superb Cosimo De Benedetto white bone shadow lambsfoot.
I took a few photos after supper tonight, and thought I'd show it off before I head to bed. I think I took enough photos that I can inflict them on the Guardians for the rest of the week!
The knife has an interesting shield (I'd call it a "bomb shield" but that may be wrong) and an oversized pivot. The smooth white bone, especially on the pile side, has a fascinating mottled appearance, kind of two-tone bone.

The lambsfoot blade is about 2.9" long and has the somewhat unusual (at least among the lambs I have) "rounded nose". The blade also has an outstanding stovepipe kick! The handle is about 3.9".

Thanks again, Bob and Tyson, for a fantastic knife I'd never dreamed of having!
