Hi Duncan - Congratulations on your pending nuptials! I have found it wonderful, and this Friday is my wedding anniversary - Maggie has put up with me and my shenanigans for 21 years (plus a little before the contract was signed lol )
I will get a picture of me using a slip-joint - but here is a traditional fixed blade made by my good friend John Keidaisch (JK Knives) - I am using the knife to baton through frozen firewood on a cold day in Illinois in January.
I never said I was photo worthy lol -
I am loving seeing all the folks that I know from the 2011 knife project - I can associate the names with faces. Great idea for a contest.

Well, I´ve already added my face here on that thread - so I was out on the stream right behind my house and doing some relaxing.
Here´s the stream
Looking up the sky was very nice. The sky had the color of bavarians colors - as it already called in our (bavarian) anthem: "God keep the colors of its sky white and blue" Nearly the formation was right to the bavarian flag.
Kind regards
Andi

Hey Duncan, I didn't have a pic of myself actually using a knife, so I cheated and went ahead and faked this "knife usage" pic.
If it breaks the rules I'll bow out. I just want to get this going with some new pics.

Great pics everyone! I am enjoying seeing our friends faces, owl attacks, alien creatures etc :thumbup:, and most of all, thank you for your kind words...I have only them in return to all you good folk out there-and thats for sure!
I would also like to take this time to apologise about the photo of me looking like I havent taken my medication-kindly supplied by our "friend" Fes, i must admit... my sharpening skills do lack finesse,if knives could scream - my house would be considered a murder house! and my stropping ability is the best in the land to be able to take a ( ok-ish) sharp knife into a perfectly safe toy for a young one to play with:grumpy:, I had enough last night and retired my strop to the cupboard.... so frustrating!
