I admire your enthusiasm for Python, and enjoyed reading about some of your experiences with it. Thanks for the recommendations for resources, too. :thumbsup::cool::cool::thumbsup:


Jack, I agree; this thread DOES move too fast for me currently to comment on as many posts as I used to. I think for September, I'll try commenting only on my two favorite posts for each page. :rolleyes:

I'm glad you retrieved those stag lambsfoots, Jack; yours is splendid :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:. But I'm sad it was at the expense



Congrats, Joshua; that is a charming couple of matched lambsfoot knives!! Lovely and distinctive!! :cool::cool::thumbsup:

Here's one of my knives that never rotates out of my pockets (thanks, @r8shell ):

Thanks Gary! I like your choice—it’s nothing if not formulaic.
 
Have you and @kenspen been consulting on thematic photo composition, Greg?!? ;) That's a clever pic and appealing knife! :thumbsup::cool::cool:

LOL, nope. Pure coincidence. :)

That’s a small detail of a blanket we brought back as a souvenir from Peru many years ago. It was sitting somewhere other than it’s usual place and as I walked by it I noticed the S-like shape and thought it’d make a good background.

Thanks for commenting and for your nice words. I know you carry your Euler knife everyday, but it’s always nice when it makes an appearance here. :thumbsup:

I think about food too much! :( Ron, your lovely pair of knives reminds me of strawberries and cream! :thumbsup::thumbsup::rolleyes:



Very nice, Shawn & Mark!! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup: I've also become a beneficiary of Alan's thoughtful generosity, and I'm enjoying tracking his gift across country right now! Thanks, Alan! :):thumbsup::thumbsup:


Glad your AC is working again, Tom! :cool::cool: I feel like I'm getting "soft" because both my car and my house have AC that I use almost constantly during the summer; up until about 8 years ago, neither had AC. :rolleyes: Great pair of knives; good to see you enjoying that Rem. Scout! :thumbsup::cool::thumbsup:


Thanks, Stuart. :) It's more knife than my lifestyle requires, though. ;)




Thanks for the kind Keen Kutter compliments, Jack & Dean & Spaten. :) I think it's my oldest knife (but not even 90 years old). :thumbsup::thumbsup: Dean & Spaten, those are some nice Cases you posted; what size are the stockman knives, and what does Case call the covers?


It's positive, but not everyone believes me! :eek::( Still working on my sales pitch after 45 years! :rolleyes:


Outstanding pic, Ken; the bone does look like it could be the same composition as the billiard balls. :cool::cool::thumbsup: What ARE pool balls made of these days, and could it be used for knife handles?


I've wanted to use that phrase for ages, @Dschal ; well done!! :):thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:


Phenomenal gent's knife, Randy; Glenn really outdid himself!! :thumbsup::cool::cool::thumbsup:


Happy trails to you until we meet again, Jack! ;):thumbsup: I admire your flora and fauna lambsfoot pair! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup::D


Congrats, Joshua; that is a charming couple of matched lambsfoot knives!! Lovely and distinctive!! :cool::cool::thumbsup:


Zwei wunderschöne Böker Taschenmesser, @r8shell ; sehr gut! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:


Definitely barking with the big dogs today, John! :cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:;)


Superb pic! :cool::thumbsup::cool: I can hear The Doors singing, "Riders on the stag". :D


Have you and @kenspen been consulting on thematic photo composition, Greg?!? ;) That's a clever pic and appealing knife! :thumbsup::cool::cool:


Thanks for the rationale, John; makes sense to me! :thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:


That's a gift from @Whetstone39, and it's ideal in the kitchen; it can span the biggest onions and potatoes I use, and it is a fine example of "grind thin to win"! ;):thumbsup::thumbsup:


Thanks, Dean. Until a week ago, I had an Opinel #8 Garden Knife in the kitchen; maybe my favorite Opinel because of its spearpoint blade (although I'm ambivalent about the Inox). But I gave that to my daughter as a kitchen knife when she moved to Minnesota. :):thumbsup::thumbsup:


Such a sensational knife, Dean; jaw-dropping jigging is just the start! :eek::thumbsup::thumbsup::cool:


Think positive, Ron!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::D

Thanks GT! I always enjoy seeing your scrimshawed RR. My knife is a Case medium stockman. It was originally chestnut jigged bone, but I tried my hand at Rit dying it to deepen the color. The mark side largely resisted my efforts, but the pile side turned out nice.

I saw it was delivered to the mailroom Gary. And knowing how that can go with a 3 day weekend I figured it was safely tucked away in some dusty old room. Happy Labor Day.

Even carrying this radically (blade & body) modded 92 has given me the opportunity to appreciate its virtues.

Love that 92! :thumbsup::D What sort of acrylic is that?
