Rusty Pinchy I just got. Been in vinegar for 48 hrs, looking like it's gonna survive  :D

Can't wait to see the final result!

Vinegar does wonders to those pesky rust spots, doesn't it  :tu:
EDC and OCD. A wicked mix.

Yes it does! I was handed down an awesome cast iron pan that was my great grandmas. It had been neglected for years and had rust all over. I soaked it in apple cider vinegar with not much luck, but the White Vinegar brought it back to life. After a good seasoning and making a lot of bacon, it's an awsome pan again! Pancakes cooked on it are the best :D

I bought this beefy Gerber Gator at Walmart in 1994.  The rubbery grip feels great in the hand.  The blade is thick so it is not a great slicer.

How's the rubber grip holding up after 20 years ?

I cannot find any deterioration in the Gator's grippy handle.  Realize that this Gator spent a lot more time sitting inside a drawer than riding in my jacket pocket.   ;)

Found a used Gator on ebay with a handle that shows wear:

They do seem very durable , I had one years ago but the handle felt a little fat for me so I traded it. I'm really liking the Gerber Moment I recently bought
