Just curious,  do you use that USB regularly?

Not on a regular basis. It is password protected and contains some important documents for emergencies but all of those documents are also on my cell phone it's more of a back up to a back up.

I mainly use it as it has the scissors and nail file but doesn't have a true blade so it passes the sniff test if/when security actually checks my stuff.

My other option before finding one was to snap off the blade of a Classic but I lucked out on this on at a flea market and found it in the original box.

That makes sense!  :tu: I use a microSD card in my wallet for the same purpose. Also encrypted of course.

Used Mulder today to work on a birdhouse that got lots of hits during last summers hail storms. It had been used in spring, and i think the bird family enjoyed it  ;)

Now i re-stained it, patched some holes, added a new roof and then finished it. Used the screwdriver on mulder as a prybar to open the stain and the sealer. Then used the Philips to mount it back in its place.

Realized after i had snapped the picture that i had grabbed the wrong stain  :facepalm:

Half day of meetings and admin work then minor house chores.

Carried the LM P4 with a Boker D2 Stub from County Comm and a J. Woytaz Bandicoot Dog Tag.

The Boker must be a special for CC. I was sent the DW 1 & 2 from Chad and the DW1 is nearly identical with the exception of the pivot

County Comm's special versions differ in blade steel (D2 vs AUS-8) and the frame-lock/liner (Titanium vs steel).

That black version was last year. I have one those too and it's an excellent watch pocket knife/box slicer.

The one thing I do not like is that the tiny clip on the back is almost impossible to open enough to use so I always keep a key chain bead on mine.

..
Yes, that is a Space Marine helmet bead.

For the Emprah!

Well, with the job I’m on right now, I do have to cut some smaller cardboard boxes up. The Wave blade isn’t cutting it. Dulls too fast. I had to touch the blade up twice tonight and it needs it again now.

I will have to rethink a knife for work. The blade on my SI did fine. The JE Made blade is awesome as is my Spyderco Tenacious.  But as they don’t fit the bill for this challenge, I’ll have to find something else.

Guess for now I’ll go back to my SI...

Day 6.

Been at the hospital with my daugher half the day. She refused to walk, hold his tight and was limping.
Good news, nothing serious.

Wenger S557 in my pocket, and I was ready for everything.

Yeah, it took me several years of watching evil bay like a hawk to find one in my price range. Prior that that I carried a Compact for years. Made the mistake recently of swapping the Compact's scales to Copper for looks and it ended up being too heavy so it got relegated to my collection chest.

Debating on buying another to try out the SB+ titanium scales.
