r8shell in post #28.
"Those green eyes looking at that knife that Bob gifted to r8shell just hit a soft spot in my ole heart"!

Well done
R8shell - if you could contact Ron for that Sweetheart of a Knife!!!
Emspop - Clay had this to say....
"Duncan,
I decided to focus on the “ Outdoor photos of a traditional knife” category as there was absolutely no way I could have excluded any of those great furry friends.
So armed with that small bit of guidance I went about looking at all the entered pictures and choose 3 that really spoke to me. I then kept looking at those 3 and I just kept going back to one. This photo had such a soft feel to it that I rarely see a wood and steel tool in. I felt that this was like a photo Monet could have painted a picture from.
Congrats
Randy very well done"
Well done
Randy my friend - that Knife Clay has presented is a real nice one! Randy if you could contact Emspop kind Sir!
Jake - Supratentorial came in and had this to say.....
" So many great photos. I went through the pages several times and the puppy photos always get me.
Randy posted some nice photos of his new pup, Nyla. So I'll pick
Randy as the recipient of the #66. -Jake
