I like that photo, dogleg... and the knife is very nice!

Thank you Jtx.

Great shot doglegg, like the pose of the knife, kind of like it fell there. Not staged look. Cool.
michaelspayth that's a great close up, love that, and great line up. Love seeing stuff like that.
A squirrel robbed me blind of my strawberry and here's where the grubby little rodent sat and ate it, apparently with a couple sunflower seeds. Nice.

Great pics Doglegg and Iman!!!

Thanks Charlie and Iman. Iman, if the strawberry eating squirrel sees the bones on that old case he may think more strawberries and go after it. I like it when a picture tells the story.

Well after closer inspection the story that pic tells is that the grubby little so and so squirrel stole a raspberry, not a strawberry. Different berry, same reaction. Thanks guys

From today's activities...

Churchill & Canoe knives posing with a osage bow I just finished making.

Greg, that is a knice 3 some, make that a 5 some. Always love your bows, those are great knives and the pouches fall into that category as well.

Gorgeous bow Sunknife, great to see the whole. Thanks, keep up the good work.

Scott and sunknife, both fine photos.

Awesome bow. Do you sell those?

Thanks for the compliments Doglegg, Ivoryman, Quick Steel and Tony, I appreciate it fellas.

No I don't sell them Tony. Have traded several, gave away several more, donated some for raffle and accumulated to many. Hobby's have a way of getting outta hand sometimes.

Well got. You must be chuffed with your purchase.

I get many of my pics early in the morning when I arrived at my shop. The low angle of the sunlight along with many overcast days this year make for some interesting shadows and mellow light for pics. Here are a couple shots I've taken the past week or so.

Another pic with shadows. All taken with an older I-phone, I enjoy taking the pics.

I enjoy your taking the pics as well.

Thanks doglegg, I like seeing lots of pics from others as well. I can read but viewing pics is just so much easier.

Nothing fancy here. A Queen Steel #16 and a dead log.

Thank you. They are lethal varmint traps. Six sharp prongs pierce the skull of whatever varmint springs the trap. I have never nor will I ever use these. I found them under a house I was working on, many many moons ago. They do still work as they should. I use them as decorations.

Ding! Lightbulb!! Know that I know what they are, I do recall seeing them many moons ago.
Thanks.

I have heard those referred to as gopher or mole traps. They sure make for a good back drop in your photo.
