Every human has a mother, I was lucky to have a great one. Happy Mother's Day to them all.
 
Those clip/lamb sowbellies are memorable models! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:

Before we head out for our walk, took a pic of this mornings carry. Nylon Bantam and 1978 Boker USA Jack knife.

A little Marshall Wells Hardware and my lamb.
I hope everyone has a great mother's day weekend.View attachment 2183035
Same to you, regarding the weekend, Bob; your Albers lambsfoot is the real deal! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:

Happy Friday friends! The 15 and the shiny new beautiful 54 have been in the pockets.

I saved this little guy from our shop; injured wing but still alive. Placed him back outside.

The paste works on dairies because you pull the calves off of the cows at birth. On a beef operation where the calves are nursing you can’t use the paste because it will rub off on the cow’s udder which they don’t appreciate. It’s easiest to just not have horns in the first place and luckily there are good beef breeds without horns. Calves with horns get discounted when they sell because they will bruise other cattle in the feedlot.
Interesting info about the difference between dairy and beef cattle treatment. :thumbsup::cool::cool:

Black Friday for me today with these beauties.

I’ve been carrying my Albers Lambsfoot a lot lately, and today I’ve had Merle with me as well. (Merle just finished up his travels, and I sort of wrapped things up in the this post.)

Barrett, I'm fond of knife-on-post photos, but I also have a thing for knife-at-baseballfield shots! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool: (I'm assuming your Albers lamb is on the outfield fence, but the backstop seems pretty short off in the distance.)

Back from my travels :) Hope everyone is doing well :thumbsup:

Welcome back, Jack! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Case Trapper & Opinel No. 8. My workhorses.
Looks like you're working on a coat-of-arms, Vince! :cool::cool::thumbsup:

Happy Weekend Porchlanders! Sorry I haven't been around in a minute, missed seeing your knives and showing mine. My excuse is I got really sick with some bronchial stuff (non-Covid, according to those tests I don't much trust), then got really broke and had no time for "knife fuss" as I call this part of my life. So here's the photo dump, been busy so there's not that much;

Welcome back, FC; glad your lungs and wallet are feeling better! :thumbsup::cool::cool:

Good morning everyone...
Gotta honor or thank our mom's this weekend. Seems they raised a great group of ladies and gents here.View attachment 2184048
Notable pair of knives, Bob; I admire the edge on that big Wharncliffe blade! :cool::thumbsup::cool:

S&M HJ1 today, minor cleaning and organizing some clutter in the office. Ordered a knife this morning, and have one out for delivery, so I've got that going for me.

Nice bone/jigging on that harness jack! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:
I rarely use that phrase, but every time I hear it I smile because of the Dalai Lama story in Caddyshack. 🤓:thumbsup:

Out-of-this-world knife, LT!! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

I’ve been tinkering this morning. I got some Fiebings Pro Dye in Chocolate and have been cooking knives. I started with these three to test. The Buck and Remington were from the Giveaway Box. I’ve always wanted to experiment on them. I tossed the copperhead in there as well just to see if I could get a slightly unique look on the antique bone.

Then I got to the one I really wanted to work on. This red trapper was always a bit too one note for me. Hopefully the color holds. Straight into the pocket for some chores.

I appreciate your comments Gary. My TSProf is responsible for that fine edge.
It needs some doctoring to get both sides even.
Enjoy your Sunday.
 
Nothing much happening today. Coco slipped and collapsed on the back stairs coming in the house last night. She's fighting a torn ACL and she's weak in the haunches. Too old for surgery so we're working with her the best we can. Minced sausage and eggs for breakfast and out to the yard for I don't know what yet. NASCAR later. It's a single blade Sowbelly day for sure.
