Day 19



It's been raining for the last couple of days, wish I get to go out at some point and play with my toys.  I grew to appreciate the classic Doan magnesium bar when everything is wet and the ferro rod alone won't lit anything.

IIRC, that's the Venetian pattern Zippo, I misplaced mine a while ago and had been looking for it for a while now...

I simply love looking at the new ones that pop up here. 
Latest that I've gotten is my Chinese Higonokami copy.  Really pleased with the interpretation.  The torx fasteners work well to adjust the blade.

Leatherman Tools / Re: Sailing trip - help me choose.

Well, I’m on my trip now. An afternoon going down a canal under diesel power before reaching the open sea tomorrow.

I’ve got a Skeletool in my pocket and a Spyderco Rescue and Free P4 close by in my bag.

I’m sure there will be pictures  of them later, but for now…

The Break Room / Re: Revived Sos Surprise Box GAW ( US edition ).

Did some research on what the black translucent SAK might be.  Found out it's a Voyager.  I ended up replacing the battery and it kept powering down.  Took the front scale off and adjusted the battery contacts and it works like a charm.  It has 3 functions, Clock, Alarm, and a Countdown.  Thanks to whoever donated it!

Carrying a Voyager I snagged out of the SOS GAW box.  Replaced the battery and it kept powering down.  Took the front scale off and adjusted the battery contacts and it works like a charm.  Thanks to whoever donated it!
