No...no, no! 

Four layers is my sweet spot. Actually, 2-layers is my sweet spot, but I'll do 4-layers for the extra tools.

No!

If I can do this challenge (and I'm not saying I can, but I'll give it a shot.), YOU can do this challenge.   :pok: :pok: :pok:

I personally think its a little wide also but I figure 30 days will let me know if I would be missing out on something...I will know one way or another.

I was just poking around the inter web and noticed that a Field & Stream article from 2008  rated the Swiss Champ as one of the "20 Best Knives Ever Made"


Quote
With 30 tools in its handle, the Swiss Champ is the ultimate evolution of the Swiss Army knife (the original had four blades). I've carried one for years, and I have used just about all its tools. People make fun of it until the day when they sheepishly ask to use it. Years ago, my car was broken into and the thief left a negotiable check untouched - but he took my Swiss Champ.

Yes Butch is, but with 40+ years of carry 30 days just would'nt be much of a challenge for him.  :facepalm:  He would probably sleep through it.  :pok: :pok:

Myself on the other hand... :climber:
I will take up the mantle to see if the Camp can earn it's name in my book. :whistle:
Count me in.
This is gona be a Tough Tool challenge.

Oh wait that starts when the Champ ends. :multi:

For me joining this Champ Challenge is more about honoring Butch. :hatsoff:  For most of the 18 years I spent growing up in his home he used the Champ as the primary tool to put food on the table, clothes on our backs, and keep a roof over our heads.  Then another 9 years for my Sister and then untill he retired my Mom.  Really to this day the Swisschamp is still taking care of them, he would't have all that retirement if it hadn't been at his side all those years.
THANKS DAD!! :salute:

Of course for anyone who hasn't got a SwissChamp.

Yet ...

Santa might well bring you something if you've been good. And there'll still be plenty of time to sign up for the Challenge. :tu:

You are most welcome son, That is just what dads do, as you learned well.
I may join but it would not really be a challenge for me. I use the Champ for everything. My only problem is committing to all those photos.
 Thanks nix for letting me know about this.
 Now I will decide and get back to you, But I will be following this thread closely.

EVERYONE, good luck.         :2tu:
