It's always a treat to see your rebuilt and recovered Lambsfoot beauty; the old Hammer scout is in great company! :cool:;):thumbsup::thumbsup:
 
Nice photo. :cool:
Thanks, Gordon.
Reminds me of the opening of the Alfred Hitchcock show.( yes I'm old)...with a nice Case thrown in.
Thanks, Bob. It’s funny you say that because after I took that picture yesterday I had a couple of birds divebombing me to the point I had to yell at them and wave my arms and run away. I must have been close to their nest.
Great photo, Barr. I’ve scrolled back to it several times. 😜
Your shadow reminds me of a comic book or cartoon character, but can’t put my finger on it.
Thanks, Jeff. Thor?😁
Decided to do a Thrifty Thursday.
Back when I was a kid, Sabre was the budget friendly choice for everyday folks who couldn’t spring for an Imperial or Colonial, much less a Schrade, Camillus, or Case. As I recall, there was a display of Sabre pocket knives in just about every hardware store and gas station. My old fish knife is a yellow Sabre that my Thrifty Scot Grandpa bought me when I was 7 or 8, meaning 1964, or ‘65. And I hope to put it to use soon!

Potatoes are taking off after a late start from the cool nights.View attachment 2203560
Some tomatoes getting conditioned outside of the greenhouse. They don’t look very big, but the roots are now filling out in the containers, so out they go. I’ve been holding back because it’s been so chilly at night. Put out 24 yesterday ~ Mortgage Lifter, Dominico (my size champ last year ~ nearing three pound tomatoes), Purple Russian, Watermelon Beef Steak (anew one for me, supposed to produce giant fruits), and a couple Super Sioux and Powers Heirloom.
That leaves nine more varieties, including some paste types, and cheeries. It looks a little crazy, but given that my tomato seed supplier carries somewher around 150 varieties of heirloom tomatoes, some quite rare, I keep trying different ones while sticking with the ones that perform best for me, based on disease resistance, productivity, and above all, taste.
Best tasting? Cherokee Chocolate. That’s what these are.View attachment 2203561
A better photo of the Sabre Grandad Barlow. I think the bone is great. Sawcut and well fitted by Japanese cutlers.View attachment 2203562

Sorry for rambling.🫣

EDIT~ Thrifty Thursday, but it’s Wednesday, aint it? I get mixed up. Still fighting this covid like, but not covid bug. 😬
I love that we’re starting to get the garden updates, with some nice knives mixed in. It’s hard to beat a tomato fresh from the garden.
Have my trusty “copper top” with me today.View attachment 2203855
Aging nicely, Todd. I carried mine today also.
