Nice use of a sak! Do you agree the 85mm Wenger bottle opener is superior to the 91mm vic one for bottle opening?

Yes, I think the 85mm Wenger is better. It's funny you should mention that. I did try my Huntsman earlier today to compare them. The 91mm Vic took too much work to open a bottle cap.

6 cigars, 3 Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stouts an 3 Guinness Extra Stouts later

Used my Skeletool to pop the trim off the refrigerator door and tighten the handles.  Then I used it to pop the cap off a double IPA.  In this case, Sam Adams Third Voyage.

Gentleman, I give you the Skeletool, the finest tool for hard working beer drinkers on their days off!

I had to pull two small nails out of the wall to move something. Nearest tool with full-size pliers at that given moment was my Kobalt, which handled the job easily. Admittedly, the nails were only in wallboard, not nailed into studs.

One of the owners' 6 year old daughter is here today.  She's out of school for a week after having her tonsils taken out.  Earlier she was building something with paint sticks, and suddenly came running up to me and said, "Give me your knife, I have a splinter".  She wanted the tweezers and remembered that I had them from the last time I took a splinter out of her finger.

Very nice Tom Get her started early.

Used my MT to cut my left middle finger   

That must be the unluckiest finger on the planet. After recovering from a pinched nerve (happened in march) I crushed it (nicely blue under the nail), burned it (yes, stoves are surprisingly hot on the inside) and cut it within the last two weeks. 

[styx]

you're not unlucky, you just do some stuff on autopilot mode. don't worry, it happens. and i've got the scars to prove it

[ducttapetech]

Chicks dig scars, or at least that I what I have been told.

Training a young lad on a lathe today, so mainly pulling big turnings out of my boot  He's worked little stuff before, but needs a bit of help adjusting to our 8m lathe as a lot of the working practices and setting techniques change on the big stuff

[enki_ck]

Read it as training a young lady ...

I used my Spirit to pull a couple of rusty nails out of a board I needed for a project.

No such luck

I was once told that you don't own the knife until you have cut yourself with it at least once

Hah, I managed to add one on top. Blocked a swordthrust with that particular finger, now its swollen too 

[ducttapetech]

Wow! That's hard core! I tend to use the sword to block another sword.

A good knife needs alittle blood for payment for all service you get out of it. This is also how the scales on a sak stay red.

You can also do it like the flamingos and kill lots of red crustaceans.

OHT getting some tactical can opener action.

Used my Gerber MP400 to setup the gas barbecue while away on holiday in south of France. Followed by an ice cold beer!

My Pulse saw some use today, I used the pliers to undo a coolant nozzle from one of the lathes at work so I could use it on my lathe. 

I also used them to grip a piece of slag that had melted off a tool bar when my new guy had his first experience getting his + and - mixed up while manually turning some parts.  Needless to say I had to chip both the insert and shim seat out of that tool and polish a few dings.  He actually managed to melt the cam screw as well.  He made it three hours into being a machine operator before scrapping his first part.  Poor guy was really upset!  I showed him a few of the tools that others have actually run into parts full rapid, they weren't save-able.  At least his was!

I used the Pulse's can opener at lunch to open a can of chili.  It's funny, I don't even bother checking the can in the morning before I leave, I just know I have about 3 can openers either on me or in my bag daily.

I was doing a load of laundry, and noticed the plastic piece that holds the lint trap in the dryer was loose on one side. I felt back along the edge (I couldn't see) and noticed a screw was missing. For no good reason I can imagine, I remembered finding a screw in the laundry MONTHS ago, and checked my junk drawer, the place I'd most likely have dropped it. Sure enough, there was the short phillips screw.

I removed the one in the dryer and, yep, identical. Replaced the one that had remained, and reinstalled the one that'd fallen out with my Spirit X (it was the closest phillips driver at hand).

Hey... these things are handy!

[detron]

used my Charge and Explorer today to remove two quarters someone jammed into the vending machine side by side.

Charge to create a little separation, and explorer tweezers to extract teh first quarter.  then Explorer blade to push remaining quarter into the machine slot

I was like "I got this  "
