What did you use your Sak on today?

[Jmoita]

And also for the very first time the mini screwdriver on my Compact to adjust my mothers glasses.

This morning I found my 97 Soldiers can opener perfect for winkling the plastic ring around the throat of a vitamin bottle off over the mouth.

I ate one of the 5 new "tinkers" my wife bought me.  

[Storm]

Used my tinkers backside Phillips to undo a switch plate.
I reckon it might handle a bit more hard use than campus security's knives

Got to keep mine in the freezer to prevent them from falling apart on a guy.

EDCed the Explorer and I did some metal detecting on a beach where there was a pirate shipwreck many years ago. Used the in line Philips to tighten a loose screw on the detector. The scissors to open snacks. Then the mag glass to look at a very well worn coin that turned out to only be a silver quarter.

superglue for your nails? I'm  a piano player so superglue made a real mess for me. Lol lol

I'm still using the Compact, without rotating to any other SAKs for some days straight since I got it (except for one day I was on a trail and Huntsman got dutty).
Scissors are always used, mainly cutting loose threads, but also plastic packages.
Combo tool has a problem that seems to be fairly common, not many space between the tool and the liner causes friction. Still use it recently for opening a plastic clam shell like a can.
Hook has been phone stand for a friend that had slipery phone case.
Corkscrew I use it everyday for making holes in cardboard for making toys to my pet. Awl is much more effective, but when in a hurry, the cs does the  job.
I dont use the main blade all that much. Sometimes to cut open packages.
I definitly miss dedicated openers, and awl. But the size that I thought it didnt matter for 5th pocket, it matters. I was used to carry Explorer by a suspension clip, now just put the Compact on the 5th. Still not as cozy in there as one of the two 85mm Wengers, but more functional.

Edit: completly forgot... The pen. I always carry one but sometimes is deep inside a bag, or stays behind for some reason. Compact pen always ready for shopping list.

I play piano too: nah no superglue or fake nails just the correct length and a ramp shape to slice over the string. That is where the cadet file comes in handy.

[Jmoita]

Huntsman on trail again. This time the saw for the walking stick up the hills was gold. Plus main blade for food as for shaving the stick creating an handle.

[GA1dad]

Used my Old Cross Electrician to change out a light switch in my daughters bedroom.

[Jmoita]

Some bottle opening action with the Compact for the 1st time. The combo tool is a little slipery compared with normal opener. Still does the job.

[SteveP]

Used the fish scaler on my Swiss Champ as an ice pick to break up some old ice in the ice maker bin.

[Explorer]

Used the X on the Farmer X to cut some zip ties

[proletenstahl]

I was unexpectedly served some unsliced grapefruit with my lunch. My Tourist was the perfect size.

I snapped a photo since I had been asked twenty minutes earlier, "How many knives does one dude need?"

[Reinier]

Two plastic Barbie shoes had become stuck inside my son's toy garbage truck. I used my Spirit to pull them out.

[Jmoita]

I collect coins. Some are old and very valuable, some are just random. Sometimes people give me random coins... First time since I got my Explorer. Other great use for this SAK!

Try the magnifer right at (or near) the camera lens - it makes a passable zoom lens!

EDCed the harvester last night over at a buddies of mine. He had a small brush pile that needed burning according to his wife so I gave him a hand and the harvesters main blade, saw and pruning blade awl came in handy 

[Jmoita]

Huntsman on trail today was pure gold!
First time opening a can with a SAK, where I live all the cans have pullers, today the puller got broken, Huntsman to the rescue.
Than the scissors, first for cutting bandage for a cut in a bush, than for a nail that got broken in half on a rock.

[SteveP]

Used the can opener on my Outdoorsman Plus to peel an orange.

[SteveP]

Used the metal file on my Champ to file down some rough spots on a pocket clip. I was tired of scratching my hand whenever I put it in my pocket.   

[Explorer]

Used the Cadet to open this parcel that contained some plus scales I picked up cheap on eBay from a US seller  Thinking I’m gonna put these on a 90s era Explorer that I’ve got kicking around.

Busy day for the old (new) farmer x today.
Cut up a nice peach.
Cut some rubber sheeting to stop a rattle in my car door.
Used to to remove those bloody annoying plastic screw plug thingies in the door.
Cut an annoying branch on the lemon tree, damn that saw is sharp.
Opened a packet of salmon pieces for lunch.
Cut some leather for the new pouch for it.
Used the scissors several times to cut the stitching for the pouch.
And finally......
Used the awl to start a hole for the screw holding my new barometer up on the wall.

Then cleaned it and oiled it.
Its been a busy day.
Put it back in the knife cabinet, inside its own little pouch to sleep......good night farmer x.

Been carrying the Handyman lately



The peek hole had some condensation that 3 days of moving around on the radiators and out the sun did not fix. Decided I'd try the harder way 



But the glue wasn't giving up so I thought I'd give it a little push  . The material used for this thing got hot in half a second so I used the pliers of the Handyman to hold it



What I did not realize is that the lens were plastic and did not cope well with fire  So the front element got wrinkled. Some sandpaper and Autosol made it better. On the picture I've focused on the lens it's self, focusing on the view gives a decent enough picture. My phone wasn't cooperating so no "view" picture

 

then I pulled the napkin that's been in the hole of the door for a few days 



And for a finale - went down the cellar and took a bottle of the 2019 home made wine. Being innovative as I am - it's bottled in beer bottles, just because I had the bottles and did not want to buy wine bottles.



It's tastes good, but definitely different from what it used to be

On the early morning putler attacked my homeland I used a large screwdriver on my Work Champ to remove staples from a cardboard that was repurposed as an improvised bed in the basement of our house. No pictures were taken, but it’ll stay in my memory forever.
