March(ing) back - discontinued challenge
on: February 19, 2019, 07:42:50 AM
Hi folks,

having not done a challenge in two months and because my own minimal throwback challenge was going good (but I had to choose for one badge, so I took the minimal badge), I wanted to gain the discontinued badge.

So I thought march may be a good month for that.

Maybe one or the other might join in the party. Time to carry all your old BSA knifes, Wengers, old leathermans, whatever as long as its out of production.  :hatsoff:

Looking forward to it.

Michael

I already have the badge so I won't officially join but will probably post in the thread since most of my tools and knives are discontinued anyway.

I have most of the badges for the next few challenges (with the exception of the SURGE, I need to upgrade to full 30 days ;) ) so no harm in posting pics of some nice discontinued LMs :dd: :D

There is still plenty of time to order a CD, Poncho. Just open your wallet and let the moths fly out.  :pok: >:D

If I ever find one for a really good price I may get one :salute: but this challenge has way more appeal to me :D Plus I am out of play money for a while :dunno: :D

Finally kinda sorta settled into my new place so I would also like to attempt this challenge.

Do I need to stick with one knife or just pick one of the discontinued lines?

Thanks!

I think today I will gather all the tools I that might come in handy to one spot, and store the "new" ones away.

AFAIK we dont have to be monogamic in this one, right? So no need to carry the same tool the whole time, unless you want to.  :popcorn:

Testing how I upload photos (I don't do much social media.. like at all. lol)

Due to workplace policies I will most likely be sticking to the Tomo or LM P4 on week days in addition to my usual Jetsetter (which I think is also a discontinued model as it is the 8GB Apple version with the Scissors/Nail file/Package opener) and give my 84mm Salesman/Smaller Climber some fresh air on the weekends.

My second contender for this challenge arrived in the mail today!  :mail: :woohoo:

And since somewhere on this planet it is already 1 March i am going to start this challenge  :drink:

First i would like to introduce my two contenders. Ladies first and a big welcome to Scully the Wenger Classic 16! Some of you know already about this, but some of the items in my household have names. So it seemed only fair to name the 2 tools for this challenge as well.
Names were completely chosen randomly and any resemblance to real persons is completely coincidental  :D

This is how Scully arrived in the mail today. Of course we cannot leave her like that and the cleaning crew went to work.
