I got behind in 2015 and wasn't able to collect all of the pattern offerings that I created ( There were 13) . I'm trying to not let that happen with the help of a good friend this time. I am still waiting for the package containing M&Gs.
I believe there are 11 versions to collect from 2025.

It's been a whirlwind few days, negotiating all to do with the SFOs and then this Empire addition to the farmers jack collection. Thank you Pete for allowing me to put your Empire along side it's brothers and sisters, especially it's twin Shapleigh. Love the addition, and it's strange that the Shapleigh has a little used Pruning blade, whereas the Empire has a little used budding blade.
And much thanks Pete for adding the box that accompanies the knives almost perfectly.

Thanks to Lyle, I picked up this one in Ebony. Came with an interesting chocolate pie story. Or was it lemon? 🤔

I wish I did. I moved to slow ten years ago and missed out. I was determined not to make that mistake this time. 🤠
