I'm another LM Squirt fan, in fact my P4 is my only EDC. Yes, the blade is quite small, but it works OK for most of my ad-hoc cutting tasks, and if I need something bigger then I just go and get that.

Yes, the blade is quite small, but it works OK for most of my ad-hoc cutting tasks, and if I need something bigger then I just go and get that.Sometimes with a short blade you have to be a little outside the box.True story;A few months ago my better half, Karen, and I were out and about in the Texas country side. We stopped at a little burger stand known for it's great burgers. Our order came and we sat down to eat and Karen wanted her burger cut in half. I took out my squirt and Karen expressed some doubt that it could neatly cut such a burger in half with a blade that was only about half or a bit less than the thickness of the burger. I told her to turn it over. After a bit of hesitation she did so, and then I told her to take off the bottom bun. When she did, I then sliced the burger itself in half and told her to replace the bun. She did, and then I sliced the bottom bun in half along the same line as the meat was sliced. Then I told her to turn it right side up carefully. Holding it together she did so, and then I cut the top bun in half along the same line as the otters cuts. Her burger was now in two halves with three neat slices. She looks at me for a moment, and then says, "I knew there was a reason I married you all those years ago."Sometimes thinking outside the box will get you there in the end.
