Ole Lumpy made it's way into my pocket this afternoon. It made ease of disposing of a few cardboard boxes, gliding laserlike through the material with little to no resistance to the thin capable blade These knives are awesome!
Good to see Ole Lumpy Duane That was quite some stag wasn't it?!
A Big 'Un is always a good user though I think I have cut up more cardboard these past 6 months than in the perfect 6 years! I am glad to have had a good sharp Lambsfoot to help me out
As discussed many times in previous posts, this is the reason why these knives were the preferred carry knives of farmers, they were work knives being able to be used for most tasks at hand, and with the straight edge, ease of sharpening at the end of the working day. And my friend the one you have in your hand is a " Pearler ".
Well said There's no fat on a Lambsfoot
The crumble looks delicious Jack! Thanks again for all the great photos from your walk today. It truly is a beautiful and historically rich area you live in Jack!
Thanks Ron I still have half of it left, and with so much more fruit to do something with, I am worried I might start turning into a blackberry! When I am out walking, I do hate seeing so much fruit going unpicked, while folks pay a fortune for a small punnet in the supermarket
Thanks, I really like it, it was a second. but in my eyes it is a beauty. Had to sand down the mark side a wee bit when I got it, pile side has better stag

Alas, here it was being admired while I was smoking some lamb chops on my lil' Smokey Joe grill for dinner tonight
You can't make this stuff up :lol:
I think you made the right choice Duane, and am pleased that you have taken to that knife so much, the pile side stag is certainly more attractive
Great minds think alike, i just has 2 lamb chops for breakfast, and i personally do not mind differing sides of scales, it adds a uniqueness to each knife, as long as they are not too different. But i use all my knives, but if i was a collector i probably would have a different view. I love this knife, but both sides of the scales are not identical, one side is a slightly lighter color, which to my eye gives me the best of both jigged bone shades.
I've just had some sourdough toast and marmalade for my breakfast, but I certainly enjoyed it, with a large mug of strong tea I think I'll be making a sausage butty later
Good Morning Guardians, I found the thread halfway down page 2! Sad to see the decline in the number of folks posting here, but inevitable I guess I often wonder about the Guardians who used to be regulars here once, and how they are doing today Anyway, hope everyone is having a great weekend Compared to the past couple of days, it's pretty dull and overcast here today. Perhaps just as well as I have plenty of things to do indoors, and it gets unbearably hot in my place when the sun is on the windows (on the South side anyway). Wishing everyone a very happy Sunday, and let's see your Lambsfoot Guardians
I'm going 'posh' today, with a DamLamb
