Rose of Sharon is also in the Hibiscus family, so I was slightly less wrong.Good evening Guardians. Finally finished up on my eye surgeries. Go back to the surgeon to have stitches removed, etc. Thank God it's pretty much over. A couple of posts ago I asked if anyone knew what this plant (below) was. I figured it out...a Confederate Rose. Not a rose at all but a member of the Hibiscus family.
Here's the photo again:

Hope everyone has had a good week and has a good upcoming weekend. For those going into lockdowns i feel for you. I am posting some photos of my SFO lambsfoot which i received through the generosity and good will of 2 members about 15 months ago now. It has had some use and like a really good pair of leather shoes it has worked and worn it's self into a really comfortable knife to use and carry. You should be able to see the wear and smoothing of the scales so it just feels really nice in the hand, and have only stropped it in 15 months and it has not even got close to have to be taken to a stone. That is the sign of a really good knife. Look after yourselves everyone..
I am a relative newcomer the lambsfoot having been lucky enough to have a close look at George Mallory's knife. I like the history and tradition of the knives and am now thinking of getting one myself. I live in Kent and work in London as a librarian but my heart resides in the mountains of North Wales.Good luck Chuck Leeds just got moved to a higher restriction level, starting on Monday. I'm not actually sure what difference it will make to daily life
Me too Dwight, some great discussion in the index That's a really cool pic my friend, it shows your Damscus Lambsfoot off to perfection, and reminds me of my days as an appentice 40-odd years ago, when I worked on a lot of machinery (we call it 'plant' here) like that
You're welcome. You're a new poster here C Canfield , why don't you introduce yourself?
Now all you have to do is get yourself a lambsfoot.I am a relative newcomer the lambsfoot having been lucky enough to have a close look at George Mallory's knife.

Here's a nice old jigged bone Lambsfoot I was gifted by a fellow Guardian
Lovely pic David
Thanks Jack.
I bet that one could tell some stories.

Good morning Guardians! It’s Friday and it’s not raining! I believe I’ll celebrate by carrying some Ebony! Y’all have a safe weekend!
