Day 11:

First use of the day...
Noodles for breakfast?

Yep.. I don't make time for a real breakfast in the morning (at least not M-F), so this gives me something on my stomach to get me to my lunch hour.. plus some slow burning carbs to keep the blood sugar up for a while.  And they're tasty... and 29 cents a cup...

That's almost exactly what the can I opened yesterday looked like. Here's an older pic of what I prefer an opened can to look like. Maybe if I sharpen the opener a little?  :think:

One of the more common SAKs I've seen being used this month is the Compact. Indeed, it has a lot packed into two layers, almost as much functionality as a Climber, and it has a pen in its plus scales. IIRC, it's missing an awl which is found under the opener/flat-tip layer and a pen blade. However, like the Climber, it has that magnificent back tool found under the scissors layer, the much maligned, scorned, ridiculed, slandered and libeled parcel hook.

For those desiring to maximize the minimalist experience with their Compact, fully exploiting all its tools to their maximum potential, I draw your attention to this magnificent YouTube video, which devotes over 25 minutes to the many different and practical uses for the parcel hook . . .


Enjoy
John


I have actually used the hook to help me put back a bike chain that fell off it's cogs a few months back, which made it a less messy job than it might have been, and I guess with Plus scales it also serves as a pen holder, but on the whole I'd rather have an awl...

T14 day 12. Voyageur again.

Day 12

My Executive helped me with some cleaning. My coffee machine has been standing unused for half a year now but when the last coffee I bought didn't work out with my Moka I felt it was time to start it up again. But first it needs some cleaning. And the first step in the cleaning operation was the grinder. The nail file worked well for removing old stale grinds and the scissors helped me tidy up the cables.
