Have a great time John 😎👍
Wow, that looks like a blast! :D :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Two amazing Sheffield slicers and a marvelous Yorkshire treat to start your day; Happy Yorkshire Day and Double Lambsfoot Day my friend!!! :cool:😁:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Celebrating Yorkshire Day with this Lambsfoot gifted to me by a wise and generous Yorkshireman! :) :thumbsup:
Many thanks for all your kind words my friend, it's great to see your Yorkshire Day Lambsfoot 🙂👍
It's actually a " patch knife " blade from Townsends I received as a Christmas gift last year and handled in stacked leather.
I went a hit fancier than they intend I suppose.



I think the blades are pretty darn inexpensive if you're interested, it was a fun project and can be pretty quick and easy if you do it their way.
Nice work 🙂👍

Laid low with sciatica today, so please excuse the recycled pic. Have a good day everyone 👍

Well Gary, one(1) person in Illinois won the whole dang $1.28B (or so) !!!
That right there is a whole lot of a bunch of Canoes. Sharp ones too ... and I do have a pretty good one :)
You sure do! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:

Thank you, unfortunately I have misplaced my polar bear hair jigging tool.😉🤔🤫
Sad news; it will be tragic if you can only carve bald bears from now on. ;)

Thanks GT. That sure was a giant mosquito. Thankfully I was able to fight it off, and the knife went safely back in its sheath ;)

Too warm for the beard, but it'll probably come back in the Fall. Seems to be a bit more grey each time it returns :)
I'd have trouble telling the difference between your mosquitoes and moose up there! I suppose the mosquitoes don't have antlers.
Beard patina seems something to be proud of! :thumbsup:🤓

On the back I have no button-hook, and I don't have the twirly thing (which could be lost) or the short separate thing. I have tweezers and toothpick in the end.
So not an explorer, we now know. Thanks.
Let's not make a hasty decision! o_O
I'll wax politically incorrect here, with an ethnic/national stereotype: those Swiss sure pay attention to details, and we should try to follow their lead. If we pay attention to the "fine print" on the SAKWiki page I linked to, we see that both an Explorer model AND an Explorer Plus model are described there, and the photos show only the Explorer Plus. We also note that the hook tool only appears after 1991. Furthermore, the twirly thing (eyeglasses screwdriver) and the short separate thing (straight pin) are tools ONLY for the Explorer Plus model; as you note, they might be lost (from the Plus model) or your knife never had them (if it was a "plain" Explorer). Does your SAK have an ink pen in the scales? Here's my conjecture: your knife is pre-1991 and if it has a pen, it's an Explorer Plus (with eyeglasses screwdriver and straight pin missing). If it does NOT have a pen, and no space for a pen in the scales, it's an Explorer.

I like the looks of the Marbles knife GT ! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: 😊
Where is it made ? 🤔
Thanks, Rob. :)
It's a contemporary Marbles model, made in China.

...
I'm not aware of it Gary, but sport and TV are foreign fields to me! 🤣 :thumbsup: Thank you my friend :) :thumbsup:

Thanks again buddy, I'm liking the new boys :D :thumbsup:
Thanks for the kind words, Jack, and for your input on the phrase "color commentator". :)

Splendid pair of knives, José! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:

Recycled or not, an A-1 photo, Jack! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:
Sorry to hear that your back "relapsed", on Yorkshire Day, no less. :(:thumbsdown:
I hope you're fit again ASAP!

My recent knife shopping spree included a couple of paring knives, a beech-handled Otter Messer with 3" carbon steel blade and a Victorinox utility knife with 4" stainless blade, black synthetic handle, and a nylon belt sheath. (The sheath was probably the main reason I bought the Victorinox.) The knives are shown with a red-handled Vic paring knife I'd purchased previously; the sheath will work with each of the 3 knives.
