Smile-inducing knife, Ron; always a treat to see your osage orange 73 (or the OO stockman, for that matter)!

Complementary blades, enticing covers (stag and ebony are both VERY appealing IMHO) - dandy pair, Ron!
Great knives and heartfelt sentiments, Paul & Ron!![]()
Superlative spear point!
Toothpick, indeed, Josh!!How long is that slender knife?

Rough winter coming??Crackin up some hickory nuts for pancakes this morning.
As a side note, I’ve never seen a crop of hickories, walnuts, and acorns as this year. The squirrels can’t keep up. Since September, I’ve picked up over 30 gallons of hickory nuts. Most are getting planted/scattered, but I culled out some of the fat ones for eating.

VERY attractive knife.Not going to be much fall color here in another week or two, it’s getting pretty sparse already.

Thanks for all your comments on our knives and our lives, Jack.I appreciate your willingness to endure (and maybe even accept/encourage
) my often-off-topic ramblings!
Many owners of the Guardian lambsfoot knives have written about the challenge of getting pics that reveal the nuances they see in person. I find it ironic that an unskilled photographer like me has come up with pics that show intricacies in the horn that I haven't noticed with my naked (and admittedly substandard) eyes!
That Guardian's Lambsfoot can certainly stand on its own!!
...
Fancy Friday, Jack!!
I ALWAYS carry this Case chestnut jigged bone CV SBJr that I won in a BigBiscuit GAW almost 3 years ago. It reminds me of all the people and events for which I should pray each day, and that includes Bob and his family, especially lately.

Nice well worn track JerI'm kind of in a rut also. Nice rut. Rut as in worn track, not as in mating frenzy.
