Literally waiting for the exact same knife. Ordered it a couple of weeks ago and should be here very soon. Hope I have the same luck as you did.

I hope so too Catdaddy. I'd just about given up on AW&S. Roundly disappointed with F/F on the three other AW&S knives I own. Glad I gave it one more shot, with someone I'd never ordered from before. I can find only one minor imperfection (in the wood) in this knife but overall I give it a 9.7. Unheard of in a working knife ... in Ebony no less . It's easily the finest Lambsfoot I now own. Oh, and the 3 other AW&S knives I own? ... they work fine, just aren't fitted and finished very well.

EDIT: The minor imperfection in the wood I mentioned is in that picture I posted but can't be easily seen unless knowing exactly where to look. It really is irrelevant.

Sacto Sacto , well my friend, you would think that I would have a Catahoula Hound given the fact that they were developed here in Louisiana and are our official state dog. However, they are far too high octane for me! Take a look at the intensity of the dog in the bottom photo I borrowed from the internet. My ranch is not large enough for that much dog! I have friends who own them, and they need to be kept busy with a job or else chaos erupts.

I prefer low energy dogs like our English Shepherd. They are more my style! And since our Rosie is a herding dog, the Jess Horn locking knife with Ram’s Horn covers is appropriate for me to tote today.

Have a great week everyone. And enjoy life on that magnificent ranch Sacto Sacto ! I envy you that opportunity. Do y’all use horses?

Thanks. We used to use horses but don’t have any left. We’ve got cattle scattered at several different places and it just gets to a point where it’s easier to run around with a 4-wheeler than a horse and horse trailer. The terrain where I am in the valley is pretty flat, so it doesn’t require horses. I’m sure you know, if the horses sit around too much, they’re not any good when you need them. I can get everything done that I need to, including roping, on an ATV. Sad, but that’s he way it is now. We do use horses on the ranch in Oregon, but I spend most of my time in California.

I have 2 dogs, a border collie and another that is 1/2 Catahoula. Both very sweet and both high energy. They get enough energy out at work that they just lay around at the house.

I had this knife with me today. I think the 15, in its many different iterations, is my favorite pattern.

Thanks, Jack. He needed to stretch his legs a bit. :)


Thanks again, Jack. :)
I'm glad I kept it too. At first I was a little put off by the blade divot, but in the end it's what made me decide to make it a "user" since it was already dinged up a little. Very nice in the pocket and everything else about it is top shelf.

LOL! :D I remember your dilemma John, but it looks like a very classy knife my friend :) :thumbsup:

Thank you very much, Jack!!!

The Waynorth lamb is always a fantastic choice, but adding that classic marlin spike/yachting knife certainly rounds out "metal Monday" in excellent form!:cool::cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:

My Random Tuesday knife grab handed me a Schrade 'Landshark' today, which is in my pocket with my trusty Hartshead Barlow :) Have a good day everyone :thumbsup:
