They are great knives Jeff! We seem to have quite a few enablers here on the Porch!Those whittlers are great! We have an enabler here on the porch, @Chunk91, who has one. When I admired it, he started sending me links for them from the auction site until I caved and got one. Such a fine pattern....
A beautiful and thoughtfully given knife.Stag/Horn Knife of the Week is a Spanish knife with stag covers that my wife (with assistance from our daughter living in Spain at the time) gave me for Christmas 2017:
Thanks so much Jack!!!Many thanks JJ, wonderful pair there my friend, and in fabulous condition
Morning folks, back with my Hartshead Barlow today, and a random Wheatley Brothers Tackler's Knife
Thank you very much, Harvey!!!Thank JJ. An exquisite pair with lovely covers on both. Well imaged.
Awesome image of your Jack B lamb; you really captured the wonderful use of Snakewood, coined liners, and file work on that gorgeous cutter!JB SFO Lamb Foot in Snakewood.
I constantly have to separate them when they are together.
I have to put the Lamb in my front pocket and the #73 in my back pocket next to my wallet.
Nice Wharncliffe, Jack.
Wow, that jigged bone sure is nice. GEC can get it right when they want to.
Jack, I’ve always loved that big Wharncliffe and that Wheatley Brothers!
I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend! We’ve been terribly busy so I’ve missed a lot of the posts and festivities. I’ll be sure and try to catch up soon! I’ve got a new one and a favorite one in my pocket this morning. I managed to pickup a Craftsman 9554 Whittler! A near mint made by Schrade knife. It’s got a few storage stains, but a darn nice Split Back Whittler! I’m also going with my Waynorth Cutlery Jigged Bone Lambsfoot! Y’all have a great day!
Normally , I'd say "Good Morning Guardians and anyone else looking in" BUT I'm off to "Wound Care" again today and it's gonna hurt this time so it's not such a Good Morning Guardians morning for me.
I'll be carrying this Case single blade CV Sowbelly with me.
Edited to add - I'm also going to carry this two-blade Lambfoot with me and as a bonus, here's a factual tid-bit about Wombat Poop that some of you might have missed in previous posts of mine.
That is all. Have a good day.
Thank you Jack. Congratulations on the “Guardians” thread passing the 2000 page milestone. That Tackler is a beaut.
Here’s to your visit going better than you imagine. May your discomfort ease as quickly as possible.
Dedicated to the Guardians thread passing page 2000. Cheers to Jack and the Guardians.

Excellent pairing today as your HH Barlow matches up very nicely with the Wharncliffe wielding "random" Tackelers Knife; love that Wheatley Brothers blade stamp too!
