     Nobody has made a post on the SwissChamp Sunday for a while.  I told MTSAK a long time ago that I would satisfy his curiosity about my homemade SwissChamp and post a photo.  Well this time is as good as any I suppose to unveil it.  Possibly talk about the build and its difficulties.  Here it is.  I used it just this morning to cut up some boxes for recycle.  Getting to all the blades is a little time consuming, but what's a little time?  Right?  It is even adjustable for the number of layers.  Clever, huh?  Best wishes and happy holidays to all.  Gary (IMR)

Nice one.  I always liked those silver scales.  Very pretty.  Lots of good boys and girls out there this year.  Santa is bringing nice things.  I'm assuming that Santa gave it to your wife for you and all that.  I never quite figured everything out.  Best wishes.  Gary (IMR)

   Thanks, Barry.  This one is just a working model.  I might take off the two inside scales and epoxy both halves together.  What do you think?  I suppose I could epoxy them together like they are but I don't want it to look tacky.  Best wishes and Happy Holidays.  I am having my Christmas deer backstrap lunch a little early.  I got hungry.  Gary

I hear you on that back strap 😋😋😋. I'd stay with the rubber bands...more versatility!  :rofl:

Looks about as good as any Champ I've ever seen! I'm betting the rubber band adds some extra grip as well! I've been meaning to add a picture or two each week but lately my Champ has been riding in my bag and we've been sick and laying around doing minimal things before Christmas

Thank you! We are all on the mend now. It was a 2 week long doozy of a bug. Wiped out 4 out of 5 of us. Luckily my wife didn't get it.

With freezing temperatures on the way to Houston for the first time in more than a year, I rigged a framework to cover my planter with the help of my new(est) SwissChamp’s scissors.

I'm still here!  I stashed my Champ in my EDC bag so I forget  to take it out lately. I'll change that!

Here's where mine has been hibernating for the last few weeks. Can you spot the SwissChamp?

Using the SwissChamp for one of its intended purposes involving a splinter on Sunday.  I’ll have to be more careful.
