I'm in! Starting on the 01/01/18, with my Black oxide Spirit.
Spirit has been my EDC since I bought it on 2005 for $37 on Amazon.
So it's not difficult for me..

No love for the full size Swisstools toe heavy for pocket carry.

tango44, welcome to the team. I think the rest of us are going to start on 01/10/18. That way gdoolittle can join in, and it gives Poncho time to acquire a Spirit. You, of course, can start when ever you have the inclination.

Hey, Capt Douglas, are you going to start a new thread for the challenge? Or were you thinking of just starting up the challenge in this thread?

With all the "chatter" on here I think it appropriate that a new dedicated thread be devoted to the actual Challenge.  All in favor say  :climber:

Try and post as many action/ use shots as possible.  If you have to use another multi because the Spirit is not up to the task tell about it and why.  Oh, don't miss a day, if you do you will be sent to the Naughty Step.   >:D :whistle:

Any other restrictions? Can participants carry a secondary knife or is this a one tool only challenge? I believe the last Spirit challenge did allow dedicated knives so we didn't have to rely on the serrated butter blade for everything. I wouldn't have bothered though if I had the Spirit X with the straight edge blade.

I don't have an X yet.  Hoping to have an XBS after the December drawing.  Even if I do I will still cary a dedicated OHO for boxes etc...  This has always been how I have worked as I find box cutting not to be a propper function of a MT, so yes I am good with a secondary single blade folder.  Now as to the butter blade I realy like mine it's been MODDED and no longer has serations,  my pliers are also modded to be true needle nose.

Poncho always has to throw a wrench into a well oiled machine.  I guess we COULD START  :twak: on the 7th so he could make the full 30 days to gat a badge.  At least that way my wife won't be upset with me for taking MT photos the 6th.  It just happens to be our 22nd Wedding Aniversery and I might get in trouble if You guys get more attention than she dose.

HAPPY WIFE, HAPPY LIFE!!!!

Ponch, if that getaway with Mrs. Ponch is a cruise, remember, you can't bring any knives.  The cruise lines are worse than the TSA.  I guess they're worried somebody's going to hijack the ship with the Classic on their key ring.

As long as the blade is under 4 inches I think it is OK :think: I usually throw it in my carryon in my toiletry bag and go right through security :whistle: I must have an honest face :D I never take it off the boat though until coming home :salute: I am to fragile for jail in Mexico :ahhh :D

well seeing that I've been carrying either the Rebar or the Spirit 90% of the last 2 months, and they've done all the things I would use a SAK for, I suppose I'm in.



Can we use a folding knife (OHO single blade only) as a compliment to the tool?  :think:
I've never not carried a OHO folder for 4 years now, and I don't think I'm gonna start now.  Especially since I'm on my moonlight phase with the ZT Nix gifted to me :P

If it doesn't fit in the rules then I'm out, but still following with interest.
Otherwise, and if it is OK to you folks, I'm in with the Spirit + Folder for the challenge   :salute:
My toys:

MTs: Surge (2x), Skeletool CX, Rebar, Blast, Fuse, Micra, Squirt (3x), Wave, Crunch, Mini, Spirit (2x), Pro Scout, MP700 (2x), Diesel, Powerlock, PowerPlier (2x), PocketPowerPlier, Blacktip , ST6 (2x), 5WR, A100

SAKs: Bantam, Executive, Ambassador, Minichamp, Classic Alox, Champion, Farmer, Explorer, Swisschamp, Golf Tool, Wenger Champ, EVO 52, Pocket Tool Chest
