What a tremendous (and colorful) trio, Dean!

Thanks, Dean ; I've had my eye on a Beer Barrel canoe (as well as other knives in that series) for quite sometime, and finally acted (when I was sure it was not simply an impulse ).

My Lambsfoot of the Week is my rosewood Union Jack:

Thanks, Gary! I like your impulse control comment above. I usually don't buy on impulse, but some do get through before the "better angels of out nature" stop me.

I like the thematically themed presentation of your Lambsfoot of the Week.

I carried these three knives on my hike today.

Hard to photograph this guy, but the sun really shows the brilliance of the ironwood much better than this photo indicates.

Great photographs !!

Wow, Dwight, that Barlow has a name brimming with confidence, but they say you may talk big as long as you can back it up!

It has a swagger when you open it...

Well winter is arriving and my modified Case Muskrat has not left the pocket. Love this knife

I decided to tote these two today, but they never got out of my pocket for any duty. A friend fell a black cherry and a red maple yesterday and told me that he had "a few" fireplace-size cut logs. So, I left the house this morning in my pickup for a quick firewood run. Two hours later, I returned with a full bed load that was two rows above the bed rails. Then a little over an hour to unload and stack it for splitting. They were perfect fireplace lengths, but a bit robust in the girth and green enough to be heavier than they looked. That little chore whipped my derriere. I'll use one of my carries to trim a cigar when I go out to admire the wood pile again. Now, where's that ibuprofen??

I'm still trying to catch up on this thread. Whew!

You have quite a rich fantasy life, Ace! And a fantasy knife, too!

Indeed I do! If this story had been set about 75 years later my character might have carried his knife on a drive in his Jaguar XK 140 OTS. (When you read that please use the British "JAG-you-are", not the American "JAG-war". )

Literally stunning, Nick; that pen is mightier than the sword!

Thanks GT! Beautiful rosewood on your Lambsfoot.

D Duckdog Classic pair Stuart. Very nice.

Stuart, I know what you're saying about maple and cherry wood esp when it's still green. The same scenario, I was used to cutting and using Jack Pine for firewood. A local said there was an ash tree fell across the road, and away I went. What a workout, boy does it burn hot.

Thanks, Dave. I'm glad to hear a good report about ash. I'm splitting 6 large white ash rounds that I picked up this past weekend. A heavy rain late this afternoon caused me to walk away from a round with the splitting wedge stuck in deep.

That's a bugger, this was a few years back when I was living in NW Ontario on the Minnesota border when this happened.
It gets mighty cold there on the Lake of the Woods, I remember splitting the ash when it was -32 F it just explodes at that temp.
The good thing with wood splitting is you get warm twice. All the best Stuart.

That Tested is a dream...wow !! I guess the XX is ok too

I know I haven’t been around much. Just not switching up my carry very much lately. This and my smaller Warren stockman is all I’ve been inclined to grab.

But you guys still posting some stunners.
