Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

As always, interesting posts in the Guardians thread! :cool::cool::thumbsup:
As too often lately, there hasn't been an interesting post from me in the thread for quite some time (shame on you who're thinking, "Like ever!" :rolleyes:), and this post won't change that. ;)
Here's the lambsfoot I'm carrying with me this week. It's the 2017 Guardians horn lambsfoot (thanks, @mrknife):

Sweet patina GT! Hopefully I can add a buffalo handle to my collection someday. They are very elegant looking, of course Jacks SFO buffalo is the icing on the cake. :D

I find it interesting that the pivot is hidden on that Rodgers. I can understand why the TEW is built that way, with the plastic pop on handle scales. I was just perusing the TEW catalog and came across a screw together Lambsfoot (I know, it's an abomination. :eek:) Model - Endurance #741b. Have you came across any on these?

Yeah, I think whoever posted about them before had a bit more info about them, maybe even a name if I remember correctly. From what I recall, the covers were just glued on, but Rodgers had found some 'new' way of fixing them. 'Course I might just have dreamnt that! :D We need to update the index :thumbsup:

Link?! :rolleyes: ;) :thumbsup:

Again, thank you Kevin. Clearly Jack has a better informed knowledge base than I do. All I know, is that here was cool looking shadow pattern Lambfoot from Joseph Rogers. It’s not Bone, but a really tough jigged patterned bexoid. Perhaps the bexoid is glued. The blade appears to me to be carbon. There’s snap, no wobble, and the blade is centered and razor sharp. I think even Jack might like it if it was in his hands.:D

Jack Black Jack Black - More great images Jack.:)

Good Day Guardians.

From what I recall that Bexoid is glued and pinned. Wright's still use a similar-looking material, it's referred to as Bexoid, but I think it's harder than the old stuff. Here's a couple of TEWs with Bexoid :thumbsup:

This knife had a similar handle until rehandled and given to me as a gift! Looks like it's from the same time frame!! Great pics, Harvey!!

If I'm not mistaken Charlie, @glennbad might have shown that one here before he worked his magic (hope I've got that right! :D) It looks very special, nice gift :) :thumbsup:

I saw two lambsfoots on Time Team last night. Usually it's all trowels with the occasional Opinel. Phil was poking at something with a lambsfoot, and the guy who cast the socketed bronze axe used a lambsfoot to peel off his mold.
The bronze guy thought they should sacrifice something after pulling so much stuff out of there, so I presume he made the bronze sword that Francis bedded in the silt before they left. Season 7 episode 9, Ii think.
Nice little snickersnee, but I'm glad we've evolved lambsfoots.

Rose Beast will be getting some yard work soon.
