Great pairing Steve :) :thumbsup:
Glad you could use Big Rose to cut down thistles, Jack! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup: My knives rarely do anything except food prep and occasional package opening.
Kudos to JJ for his thoughtful kindness; that's an impressive quartet of knives he sent your way, and interesting postcards! :cool::cool::thumbsup:
Your bone WCLF and the black French pattern make an impressive pair! :thumbsup::cool::cool:
Thanks for all the kind words Gary :) Big Rose worked like a charm on the big thistles, even hacked down a 3 foot Sycamore! :D I didn't have anything else on me, and thought I'd give Rose a try :D :thumbsup:
Couple of "instant classic" Barlows, Jack! :thumbsup::cool::cool:
Thanks again my friend :) :thumbsup:
Looking good Jon :cool: :thumbsup:
Some of you may recall that I rented and used a Tree Root Exposer ("rototiller") on my front yard last Saturday, until the dumb rental broke. Rented another one today (I actually think it was the exact same one, post-repair) and it worked great this time.
Here is the awful machine:

Here's my brilliant and plucky and lovely bride going after me to dig out roots and then rake them up:

Here's the pile of roots we removed in total (this isn't including the equally large pile from last week - this is just from today):

And here's the knives I have in my pocket now as I'm relaxing and getting ready to drink a little wine. We are trying to decide between sangiovese, tempranillo, malbec, and barbera grapes to plant, so that's about the only varietals we're drinking these days.

Wow! You two really go for it! :D Cool pics Tyson :) :thumbsup:
Handsome pair Tyson, I hope you got to pop a few caps after work :cool: :thumbsup:
Thanks a lot, Jack!!! :) :thumbsup:

Your two Saturday beauties will be an excellent pairing for some time afield; a slipjoint and a FB is always a very solid paring! :cool:;):thumbsup::thumbsup:

I've been toting two of my favorite Schrades for Saturday. :)
Many thanks JJ, it's great to see that magnificent matching pair again my friend :cool: :) :thumbsup:

Have a great Sunday Porch folks :) Double Albers for me today :) :thumbsup:

Two nice classics Jack. Fine examples of modern day craftsmanship.

Looks like a lot of work but will be worth it.

Who needs a gym. Just go to Tyson's for your workout.
Nice way to relax after all that work.
 
Poor health, a negative prognosis, and a poor quality of life beckoned DirtDawg Bella down the trail to the other side yesterday morning. May she rest in peace. My little trail buddy will be sorely missed, but I will cherish the memories of the past 13-1/2 years of her companionship. I hope it's true that all dogs go to Heaven.

Sorry to hear about your pup. I know all the dogs I've ever had were special, and I remember every one of them fondly.
