I think it is giraffe bone GT, but I'll have to look.

Nice lambsfoot (not sure what the plural of lambsfoot is? lambsfoots? lambsfeet?) all :thumbsup: :)

I really must get the white - handle Enzo necker. Reasonably priced knife that works well and looks good. Also I know from experience they carry well in the pocket and fit my hand.

Thanks, Jack. How's the berry situation? An annual frustration for me is that the fence along our back yard that is next to an alley is covered with grapevines that currently are laden with hundreds of grape clusters, all of which will ripen while we're away on vacation! :( Good deal for our neighbors and alert pedestrians walking down the alley! ;)

I completely forgot to look GT! :rolleyes: That IS frustrating :( I get so many blackberries and apples in the back garden, I encourage the neighbours to come and take some. Maybe your neighbours could pick you some grapes while you're away :)

Great shot of your Ettrick, donn! :thumbsup::thumbsup: I know this was directed at Jack Black, and I admit that I'm too provincial to catch the full humor of the sign. But it reminds me of a math joke, of course. There are only three types of people in the world; those who can count and those who can't. :rolleyes:

Well it made me laugh GT! :D :thumbsup:

Great-looking knives and admirable sentiments, r8shell and Alan! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup: I had no clue what Yorkshire Day was either, and I was starting to feel like somebody on the outside looking in when I kept seeing that little white 4-petal flower showing up in lambsfoot photos! :confused: But Google proved once again that it's my BFF, and now I feel like I've learned so much about the white rose of Yorkshire and the red rose of Lancaster, and the War of the Roses, and US minor league baseball teams that still commemorate these old floral connections, and what Yorkshire Day on August 1 memorializes. I didn't carry a lambsfoot-bladed knife yesterday, but after I returned home from work, I used my lambsfoot from York to make a salad and put a dash of "Yorkshire's Original" on it! :p

There are plenty of people in Yorkshire who haven't heard of it my friend! :D Thanks for your interest, that's a great pic of your Lambsfoot, lovely pile-side :) I had some of the Black Stuff with a hearty stew and Yorkshire Pudding yesterday :) :thumbsup:

It seems to have come early here r8shell, for today at least. Maybe me and my Lambsfoot can send some British weather your way. Not often anyone wants it! :D :thumbsup:

Cool photo, Randy! :cool::cool: I'm not a huge fan of stag bone (I'd rather have bone or have stag), but you're making it look pretty good!! :thumbsup:;) If you haven't done so already, may I suggest that you also post your pics in the "blades on books" thread?

Thanks Gary :thumbsup:. I am very sorry that you don't like Bone Stag but then again I thought something was a little off with you. :rolleyes::D Hope you know I'm just kidding my friend.

It's Yorkshire Day here tomorrow - well everywhere I guess! :D So I'll be out celebrating, accompanied by these two :) :thumbsup:

Many apologies! I didn't realize it was Yorkshire Day today, so I have switched out my carry. How could I remain a Guardian in good standing otherwise?

It's actually a while since I was last in the Maltings Donn, maybe a year or two actually :( I'm sure there were plenty of places celebrating in York, but apart from Leeds, I was only in Harrogate yesterday - which is barely even Yorkshire is it?! :D :thumbsup:



It's easy to see why :) :thumbsup:



Classy Lambsfoot my friend :thumbsup:

I have these two in my pockets today :) :thumbsup:

Fine looking Bokers!

I pulled out the Lambfoot yesterday, and the cold front came in. It's supposed to stay down in the mid 90s f. all week! :D:thumbsup:

Ah, the Guardians are representing the last couple of days, well done! I must apologize to my British friends, I neglected to wish a Happy Yorkshire Day to those who celebrate it yesterday. I was rather busy yesterday and was unable to post much here. But in belated solidarity, I am carrying Rosie today and truth be told, I carried her yesterday as well. I am not knowledgeable enough to know whether or not Yorkshire Day has anything to do with the Wars of the Roses but it did make me remember one of my favorite books growing up, The Black Arrow by Robert Lois Stevenson. I had the good fortune to have access to a rather extensive library as a child, much of it comprised of classic literature, so I was and still am a rather voracious reader. If you haven't read The Black Arrow or any of Stevenson's other works, I fully recommend him. (The Black Arrow is a novel that is set during the conflicts between the Houses of York and Lancaster)

You'll drive Right Past my house Jeff if traveling on I-94:thumbsup: I am right along I-94 (south side). When you get to Valley City you will see just after the first exit a HUGE Quonset on the North side of I-94, we are directly south of it on the opposite side of the interstate. Row of townhouses, fourth one down with a white Chevy Astro (work van) out front;) There's a great (new) truck stop to fuel up at just beyond my place (next exit). If time allows shoot me a pm and I'll give you my cell, I can at least buy you a soda for the road:)

As I finish packing for my move across a few states, I have the one knife on me I could not get over losing! It's got everything I could ever need from a pocket knife and then some

I hope your move went well:)

A knife I'm certain I'm not alone in admiring for a good long while. So nice to see a custom ageing gracefully too
