Indeed! :thumbsup:

I knew a guy in the 70's, who always had a great fancy-dress party on his birthday, and every year he'd wear a suit :rolleyes: :D :thumbsup:

I got to have a beer anyway, a nice stout from Magic Rock brewery(Head Brewer is from Sheffield) :) :thumbsup:



Cheers pal, I have certainly received a few over the years! :eek: ;) Great pic Barrett :) :thumbsup:

Hope you all have a great weekend :) I usually go away for my birthday weekend, but just having a bit of a Tour de Yorkshire tomorrow ;) I'll be carrying my AC :) :thumbsup:

They are included in the 1883 Sheffield trade directory as a merchant and table knife manufacturer in Allen Street, Sheffield. The brothers were John Thomas Hale (1853-1919) and Samuel Stafford Hale (c. 1856-?), the sons of John Hale, an iron and steel merchant in Shalesmoor (Sheffield). By the end of the 1880's, Hale Brothers had moved to Moorfield Works on Snow Lane (photos below).

Jack Black Jack Black said: “I've noticed a few 'innovative' modern folders with very similar blade-shapes, sometimes call them a 'Reverse Tanto.”

Now I find that remark interesting in regards to the Lambsfoot pattern, because that was my initial observation. Prior to my dive into Traditionals, was my immersion in, and collecting of tactical knives, of which many are reverse Tantos. Next to Lambsfoot, the reverse Tanto is my favorite shape. Do have a wonderful “Tour de Yorkshire,” Jack. (Post Script) Beautiful paper-weight!

@btb01 I remember “Stan the Man,” but can’t help but noticing your Lamb’s wonderful grain pattern.

Thanks Harvey. I actually won this in a giveaway Jack did last year! It was the 2018 Guardian knife. It introduced me to the Lambfoot blade shape. It also taught me to try different patterns, you never know what you might like!
