It was great to see the Damascus in its rough state, then polished, where the blade is shiny, but you can still see the pattern if you look very carefully, and then after treatment
Beautiful knives, Jose! Excellent photo.
Very nice! I was wondering when these would start popping up. I was tempted by the stag but opted for the snakewood version
That is very much like the image I remember from the 80's Jose
Came very clean - just want to be sure to take good care of itA Bobby-Dazzler it is my friend I know exactly what you mean about the pics! I think these are a bit 'cleaner' than usual, but some oil and a flushing never hurts A pleasure my friend, I'm glad you're so pleased with it, and I'm sure Ashley will be too
Hog heaven is right onThe first time I saw the Senator on their Site, I was less than impressed. When I actually received one and held it in my hand, I immediately fell in LOVE. It is a beautiful, well sized, and nicely weighted knife. Very elegant...add vintage Sambar Stag Covers and a beautiful Damascus Lambsfoot Blade, not to mention the gorgeous file work on the spring, well you must be in “hog heaven.” Congratulations!
I heard the term on the telly so I wasn't sureIt's a "Bobby-Dazzler"
Thank youIt is a really beautiful knife, OG. Congratulations.
Pics don't do it justice - it's stunning - fantastic etchBeautiful pattern Damascus.
I hope all you Guardians have a great week! Mines starting off with a wee Sambar.
I heard the term on the telly so I wasn't sure
LOOKS GREAT!!!
So, I have been trying to get GEC to make a Real Lamb Foot knife for several years!!
It would be a production run of a pattern that has been largely ignored in the North American market since the Lambfoot was developed or invented in England.
I am proud to tell you, that the knife is in the works!!
The various stamps have arrived, and just to add to the firsts, it will be my first knife with my Brand on it! Waynorth Cutlery!!!
The knife is based on a Joseph Rodgers (JR) design I particularly admire. It won't be a direct copy, but will use some of the best features the JR has to offer, along with GEC's great design skills, materials and workmanship!!
Here are the Joseph Rodgers Lambfoot knives; the jigged bone being my favorite, but the wood (I think Cocabola ) my second.

Here is a drawing of our American Lambfoot, and a revised sketch which shows a change in the kick. I was trying to get a "full" stovepipe*, but production realities altered it a bit!
The knife, on a new GEC pattern #93, is a hefty 3 7/8" long!!
Tang mark:
I used Buffalo as my home base, to recognize my birthplace, and to give tribute to the fact that the knife is truly American!View attachment 1105500 View attachment 1105504 View attachment 1105511
* another of those phrases only knife people understand!!
Thanks Jack and Harvey!!
Further news; it looks like the Lambfoot will be out near the end of May - first of June!!
I will announce it to the dealers soon!!
Good day, Guardians.
This thread is just about impossible to keep up with so I will just have to chime in whenever I can and try to catch up whenever there is time. Nobody's issue but my own.
However, sometimes it pays off to take a peak at past pages, otherwise I would have missed out on the tremendous news I've quoted below.
This all sounds terrific, Charlie! So many great things packed into these posts. An American Lambsfoot?! Your own cutlery stamp?!
Congratulations on your good fortune and success, Charlie. This knife is going to be rather special.
This is even more exciting! This year is quite the year for us Lambsfoot enthusiasts.
I am expecting something special in the mail today but in the meantime, I have this dark beauty in my pocket.
Maybe I should test my knives!Yikes guys, I have a haunted Lambsfoot! I had it spinning all the way round, but it's hard to do that and film at the same time
I wonder how that happened, it seems to be the only one?! I know that if you strike an iron nail at a certain angle, you can magnetize it. Perhaps it is the same with Damascus!
Thanks pal.Wow Dwight, you really take a great pic
That is a wonderful keepsake. Wow I love it!Actually, that is bronze and is signed A. Goldstein 75'. It was my mom's and I believe it was a wedding gift. She was born in 1916 and my folks were married in the 1930s so if 75' is the casting date, it would have been 1875. Anyway, it's been around for as long as I can remember. Here's a different angle.
Preston it is not a vacuum tube. Thank you!Nice photo, Dwight is that a vacuum tube
Thank you again my friend.Another striking photo, Dwight, hope your week is the same
High plains lamb drifter...Have a good Monday, Guardians. I took this photo on the way back from running and playing with Dutch.
Thank you sir.Beautiful photo Dwight
Much appreciated Harvey.Fodderwing Your use of light makes for an attractive Lamb shot, Dwight.
Isn't it odd that you are the farthest from the UK and consistently the first to receive the mail. Anyway I am excited for you Old-gUY. That is a gorgeous senator and I'm looking forward to more pics. Congratulations!HOORAY MORE LATER

Simply gorgeous pin stripe.Another picture of my Guardians 19, because I love this knife!
Thanks, that Dami Lami is certainly a looker...need to see more of the blade, please. Yes, Jack, truly wide open spaces. I went to a machine gun shoot, the rancher stated that there was nothing down range for eleven miles. Some participants brought small, 75 mm, howitzers.That is very much like the image I remember from the 80's Jose
Great pic Mark, hope your week goes OK
Classic John
Beautiful photo Dwight
Thank you my friend, you sure have some space there, great pic Have a great day
Looks like you and Vince could have the market cornered
Some great background for that great looking Lambsfoot!Thanks, buddy.
I enjoyed the War of the Roses pics. The kids pics were too funny! That little guy in the helmet had me cracking up.
CONGRATULATIONS , Charley !!!!!
Thank you for sticking with getting this Lambsfoot made. I look forward to seeing many other Waynorth knives in the future.
But Betty might get jealous!
Always good to see ya here, GT!
With some motor bikes from the same side of the pond.
Thanks, Harvey, it really is ' home on the range' around here.That sculpture...What a treasure.
Pt-Luso I like the way your green Lamb isn’t just green, but two tone. Very attractive.
@Ramrodmb The reflection of the flower on the blade makes your nice image even nicer.
Fodderwing Your use of light makes for an attractive Lamb shot, Dwight.
pjsjr Your Lamb looks like it’s at “home on the range,” making for a great environmental portrait.
Jack Black I’ll never tire looking at your Stag D. The “War Games” images are great fun to see.
@JohnDF That’s a fun shot of your Lamb.
@flatblackcapo Two great things to look at for the price of one.
@Half/Stop That’s a clean and beautiful looking Stag Lamb.
@dc50 The colors of your Lamb blends beautifully with the painting.
Have a Good Day Guardians!
OK, thanksPancakes for breakfast? Hope there's no snags my friend
Thanks Randy, here you go
That's a nice one Harry, it just begs to be carried!

Congratulations OG! Marvelous!
Maybe it's one strike on the pile side to magnetize, one on the mark side to de-magnetize.Yikes guys, I have a haunted Lambsfoot! I had it spinning all the way round, but it's hard to do that and film at the same time
I wonder how that happened, it seems to be the only one?! I know that if you strike an iron nail at a certain angle, you can magnetize it. Perhaps it is the same with Damascus!
I read the other post Dwight where you stated it was a light bulb of some sort. Yes, high plains lamb drifter, would be accurate.Thanks pal.
That is a wonderful keepsake. Wow I love it!
Preston it is not a vacuum tube. Thank you!
Thank you again my friend.
