Knives & Critters

[Sharp & Fiery]

Mrs. Bowser and yes, a large Regular. I wasnt gonna get my hand any closer. Lol. Already an invasion of her privacy. She is making her way back to the pond.


And a “window warrior” here...we try to keep a set of blinds closed...but, still got a good knock on the head. She woke up, so Im hoping she made it.

Chippy meets my newly finished Yrjö Puronvarsi/ YP Taonta Sheepsfoot "puukko" completed with
my handle of - teak, antler, birch bark, teak, antler - on a great forged blade.

I'm always excited when I have the opportunity to contribute to this thread!

I was taking photos of my new 4-Max Scout when I stumbled across this cute little snail scouting out new territory.

I know, I know,......
no knife in pics, but this guy was so fast I didn’t have a chance to put down a knife and snap a pic!
Probably 8-9 inch skink.

A snail and a skink - made me think.
Why would one pose with the blade
though the other would rather evade?

I stumbled across these two cute sleeping snails and snapped a quick pic with my Artisan Cutlery Proponent without disturbing them.

I don't know what the heck this is. Some kind of moth?

Bagwell Bowie’s with Bagwell and a Buffalo

A skink in the shed.
I don’t think the little guy will make it, I think he was in/under the rider when I drove it out this morning and got squished.
His back leg doesn’t look good and I think that’s guts on his belly. And he wasn’t moving real fast.
Isn’t like there’s a shortage of ‘em but I still feel a little bad.

Dang. I got lots of cool bug pics but I never thought to let one pose with my knife.
