Day 7
Walking the dog, I played with the Yeoman magnifying glass some. But then I did have some actual use of cutting the tag off a dog treat and popping the cap off a beer
Nice magnifying photos!  :cheers:

Day 8
May have more use later, but to start the day, the Yeoman cut open the plastic wrap of some sausage biscuits for a snack.

Speaking of a snack, I need to eat mine!

Day 7 trying to catch up a bit. Winter approaches slowly this year, yet preparations of all kinds keep one occupied as usual, yesterday we lifted our boat back to ground.

Sorry but I didn't really sympathise with you seeing this pic as it reminded me of a delightful trip I took during a previous challenge.

111mm’s - my favorite carry size!  :tu:

Day 8

German Army Knife, I do like how the original OHO hole is slimmer and more pleasing to the eye.  Some folks in past commented how the entire line of 111mm OHO needs two hands to close, and for that reason, I even made a video back then to show how it could be closed with one hand.

November 8 - guess I'm being boring not rotating other discontinued SAKS, but I do like to use one for 30 days, this teaches me a bit more about the knife and it's uses. Today I used the blade on the Yeoman to open some mail and the scissors to trim some cloth. Hopefully some more work for the Yeoman later today.
Cheers!

I wanted to keep it all documented so I'd be eligible for this too:


as well as the Disco badge:


Was going to try for the Rotation with the Ranger/MC challenge, but it would have been easier if I had the Outdoorsman also available to rotate 30.  I think I might have had to hit some of the parts/mod fodder Rangers to make it work!

Nice photo.  As nice as these photos of SAKs and snow look that I keep seeing, I really hope I don’t get a chance to post one this year.

Nice magnifying photos!  :cheers:

Thanks and glad I could remind you of your breakfast which also looked good.

It does have a great toolset that is my favorite.

Not boring at all for using the same knife, but we want to see it

That is cool.  Although, you may have to verify with mod but I think I’ve seen something posted before about only one Challenge badge being allowed in 30 days except when it was the Anniversary Challenge.

Day 8, finally back on time.

Made some extra kindling to boost fire starting at the sauna, works well even though I'm out of practice.

I don't know precisely what it is, it's my nephews artistic interpretation.

Well in Finland snow is a fact of life, and will continue to be.
