Went for a nice walk by the local river with my pup yesterday. There were quite a few Bald Eagles out yesterday! And I also grabbed a pic of a little salamander that was hiding on a downed tree.




Todays Lamb, a TEW that I got at Christmas. It doesn't seem to get much use, and that needs to change!

Good evening Guardians I got back a couple of hours ago, and still need to unpack, do laundry, etc, but I just thought I'd call in to say Hi This week has been, by far, the longest break I've had since starting this thread, so thanks for keeping it going Guardians, I appreciate the break It might take me a while to edit all my pics, but I'll try to post a brief report on my adventures tomorrow I hope everyone is well

Thank you Dwight, cool pic there

Thank you very much David, I actually got about 3 hours sleep, which was more than I was expecting!

Afternoon Guardians! Trust everyone is having a relaxing day.

Sweet pic

Ta Jer, got attacked by a stray dog on my first full day, but apart from that it was a laid-back trip

Alright, everyone, Jack’s gone for a week, now we can post all the sheepsfoot and other non-Lambsfoot knives we want!

(Just kidding, Jack! Have a great trip!)

Thanks mate

Big lamb today.

Looking good Mitch

Afternoon all,
Still getting rid of the cardboard that Lilly's bed came in, recycling bin is only emptied every 2 weeks.

Buddy wanted to know what was going on.

Went out later, switched to snakewood.


Have a good day

Nice choices my friend

What page will we be on by the time Jack returns?

Lets make it a Senator day today.

Nice

Good morning Guardians !

Wee Rosie to start the week

Sweet pic Steve

What a Lambsfoot! Great pic buddy

Afternoon Guardians! Nice spring day. Had some sever weather Saturday night. Couple tornados just south of here.

Yikes! Glad you're OK David Nice Lockwood Lamb there

Hopelessly behind here but hope everyone had a great weekend.

I know the feeling Jeremy! Stunning!

Bobstag & Wally

Nice pairing Mitch

In an effort to do my part in keeping things moving here while our fearless leader is on holiday, I’ve decided to carry a different Lambsfoot each day this week, post a new photo of it and maybe share a little about that day’s knife.

I initially thought I’d start with my first Lambsfoot, a horn-handled A. Wright that I bought shortly after this thread was started, but that knife turned out to be a bit of a dud. So instead I carried my second Lambsfoot, this A. Wright in ebony.

Nothing fancy about this knife, but it’s fairly well made and was very reasonably priced. Makes for a great user.

Thanks a lot Barrett, that's a nice idea Cool Ebony Lamb

Barrett, both Jack and Leon introduced me to this pattern and gave me some advice on where to start. I’m glad they did! I’ll try to figure out the first one procured and post a picture tomorrow.

Great having you here Dan

Rosewood!

My first Sheffield lambsfoot.

Cool pic Welcome to the Guardians

G'day guardians,

My dad went on a trip to the city recently and picked up this knife for me. It was $10 and he thought it would be something I’d like.

I gave it a quick wipe over with some steel wool and can make out “Lambfoot” on the blade.

On the tang I can’t fully make it out.

It’s either an E/G/B . BLY? Co Sheffield

View attachment 2562043

Any ideas on the maker?

Well spotted Dad! Nice find

I'm going with Edwin Blyde.

Blyde for sure

My first lambsfoot was RALF, a Guardians' 2018 release. I added the stipling to the covers at a later date.

Nice start to your flock Jeff

My first Lamb was old Stag. I got it before joining BF from a member of another forum.

It did prompt me to check out the Guardians thread when I joined.

A classic Steve

My first Lamb was this Stag Wright and Son with fancy filework. I didn’t know much about Lambsfeet until coming across the Guardians. I’ve since added a couple more. View attachment 2562182View attachment 2562183View attachment 2562184

Very handsome

I was up at 5am for breakfast, before a 90 minute mini-van ride to the airport, followed by 3 hours of lugging luggage, security checks, and standing in line, but the 4 hour flight, in a very cramped seat, and then a taxi home. It's not 8pm here yet, but I'm shattered! See you tomorrow Guardians

Morning Guardians! Kinda windy today. Hope y'all have a good day.

We had a couple of windy days in Crete David, made it quite cool on a couple of evenings. Happy May Day

Victoirinox isn't the only knife company that makes an Electrician's knife. This was my Lambfoot Electrician. It featured split covers and electrical tape to keep the covers together.. Quite the capable knife.

That has some great character Ed!

As it is today. Recovered with Snakewood.

Looks good in Snakewood though

A nice day here in Santa Cruz.

Lovely Lamb Kurt

Good afternoon Guardians. I decided to carry old Stag today


Pile side

Great choice Steve

My first toe dip into the pool of lambs.
It has been a pleasure sharing experiences with everyone.
The ocean was enshrouded in haze.

Great start brother

This was my first lambsfoot, an AC.

Nice Dwight

Have a good one all,

Looking good buddy

My first lamb and chip butty. I put mayo on it
View attachment 2562422

This one is certainly earning it's keep...

That is gaining character John

As I recall this was my first lamb and Jack and Leon said it was a good choice.

Here’s a bonus pic of that lamb cutting up apples for my students .

Definitely

My first Lambsfoot was a gift from Jack... I still use it regularly.

A great investment!

 

[JohnDF]

A great investment!

Thank you very much, my friend.
Can't wait to hear your trip report.

Thanks Jack, and welcome back. Look forward to hearing (or reading) about your trip.

Welcome back Jack! Missed ya. Hope you had a great holiday. Can't wait for your report and pics.

 

[btb01]

Welcome back, Jack! Hope you had a great time!

I’ll finish off my week of rotating Lambs with another Albers. This Curly Katalox gets a lot of pocket time. It’s a great daily driver.

You honored the lamb well with your rotation Barrett.

New May, in 01 & bog oak from Bob.
Its a solid build I was surprised it feels much lighter than it looks
Thanks Bob. I really like it!


As I said wet here, getting a new pool

Beautiful Mitch! Love the bog oak.

 

[Fodderwing]

Glad you're home Jack!

 

[Rufus1949]

Hard to upstage the model semi rig, but you did with your IXL Dwight.
