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

Complementary blades, enticing covers (stag and ebony are both VERY appealing IMHO) - dandy pair, Ron! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:

Great knives and heartfelt sentiments, Paul & Ron! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Gary thanks for all the compliments!!!! :)
 
Toothpick, indeed, Josh!! :eek::thumbsup::thumbsup: How long is that slender knife?

It is 5 1/2 inches long closed, 9 7/8 inches long open, the blade is about 4 1/2 inches from tip to bolster. I am a real fan of large toothpick knives. I wish a company was making a design like this one currently, with a long upswept swedged clip point.

Today I am carrying a Rough Rider Razor Trapper.

Thanks r8shell, I have some of that! :) :thumbsup:



Thanks Tom, those orange Case soddies look great :thumbsup:



Great-looking Stockman Will :thumbsup:

Carrying a Lambsfoot in snakewood by Arthur Wright, and an old MOP penknife by Albert Oates today :thumbsup:



Both are very nice, particularly the file work on the lambsfoot.

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.

Me either. My hickory tree was loaded and there are hundreds on the ground. Squirrels aren’t making a dent.
 
Thanks for all your comments on our knives and our lives, Jack. :) I appreciate your willingness to endure (and maybe even accept/encourage :rolleyes:) my often-off-topic ramblings! :D 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! :confused:o_O
That Guardian's Lambsfoot can certainly stand on its own!! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

...

Fancy Friday, Jack!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:

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.

Thanks pal, I used to sub-edit Climber & Rambler magazine here, and am happy to encourage a few ramblings ;) Lovely SBJr :) :thumbsup:

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

Nice well worn track Jer ;) :thumbsup:


I don't think I've ever seen those two looking so happy, it's got to be photoshop! :D ;) :thumbsup:


That is one great knife IMHO :thumbsup:
