Day 21

Just found some more junk mail lurking behind the door, so Wenger watch back opener (Omega branded) to the rescue!

Noticed a few of these in varying colours available on fleabay.... Hopefully this morning‘s snap catches the blue alox better and it doesn’t look like plastic!

Day 21
Used the scissors to cut open a juice box for a mixed drink for my wife and a pack of jerky for a snack.

I’m fortunate, he is an appreciative dog and pays close attention to the knife when it is involved with treats or toys. [I say this as he is sleeping with his head in my lap]

Very nice haul.  Amazing collection.

That is a very nice looking blue.

I never have the privilege to have one, but I do firmly believe in what Samual Jackson said in Pulp Fiction, 'Dog has personality' and they do!

Any thoughts one which one you'd like better?  Or they are too different to tell?

Just a WorkChamp beauty shot today.  :salute:

Always found the texture on the slide button interesting.

Day 21, opening some tricky packages.



Nice knives all around especially with the new arrivals. The seller of my recent lot has been tardy with sending it, and it may not make it before the end of the challenge.  :rant:

Awls really are the best tools for package opening... no sticky residue smeared on a blade! :tu:
