Thanks Gustophersmob - What an MT to be my first! :drool: I am so chuffed! I loved doing the challenge too and this is icing on the cake. Thanks for your generosity and well done everyone else.

I will post pics when the Spirit arrives.

Yes my friend, your eyes are not deceiving you ;)  If I were to truly go minimalist, I'd have to give it a go with my new Pioneer.  The Compact wasn't as much of a challenge as I originally thought it may be.  The biggest challenge was missing my Rogueneer.  So now I have another problem with my carry.  I want to go back to the Rogueneer, but I also want to carry my new Pioneer, which would have to be paired with the Compact probably.  I guess we'll see after the final day of the challenge ;)
Told you, my friend, told you ... :facepalm:

Very well done everyone.

OK I can get by very well with a simple EDC but NOOOOO I really don't want that when I know there are more handy tools to be had in that same convenient SAK package.

And that's the thing for me ... this just underlines what a great thing even a minimalist SAK can be to have in your pocket.  Add tools and things just keep getting better :D

If I really wanted this self-denial stuff I'd have been a monk  :angel:

But ... thanks especially Gustophersmob for coming up with a quite maddening challenge  :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh

While I didn't participate I followed along.  Congrats to the winners and really to everyone who participated.  Thanks to GM for a neat way fall in love ( in most cases ) with the simple SAK.

+1 - I nearly didn't put my SI away this morning - and ironically, it bit me last night (I was idly fiddling with the awl  :facepalm:)

Off to a wedding tonight, some redundancy but still minimalist.

Compact with E05, some more lights and a snubbie.
My old Delica needs some love just because.

I have to say I'm rather glad the challenge is all over.  Other than the couple of times I needed a Phillips screwdriver that I noted I actually did survive, but really missed being able to change what I was carrying when I liked.  Also if I'd still been working there would have simply no way I's have lasted more than a single day. :D

Yeah, work was the biggest obstacle for me too - although I did find it extremely limiting away from work too.

Lesson learned  :D

It's like being in a sweet shop isn't it?

I have my Farmer close at hand, my SI in my pocket as well as my Tom Sawyer and I'm still hankering after my modded Camper as well! How many do I need??

Loved your EDC bag pic too SAK Guy  :rofl:
