Day 19
This is my office for the next several days.  Be careful how you answer when someone asks if you can drive a 24 foot box truck. :facepalm:
:facepalm:  "It depends?" or "Only if I don't have to drive it?" :think: :D

Day 20
The Yeoman fittingly helped me open a bottle of Jefferson Ocean Aged at Sea Bourbon Whiskey

What good is opening if not going to have a drink

(If curious why there is a rubber duck in the photo read the last half of the ship’s log info)

Day 20

Wenger Manager, this is one of the first Wenger I got when I first started collecting vintage SAKs.  I found this in a corner of an old bookstore, and found the telescoping pointer fascinating.

What interesting is that this model with the corkscrew is called Manager, while the one with the phillips screw driver is called the Director.  Does it mean it is more fun to be a Manager than a Director? :drink: :D

That is a unusual Wenger SAK.  :like: :tu:

Nice uses and knives!

November 20 - Used  the Yeoman's combo tool to remove some batteries from a remote and the scissors to cut some small cable ties.

Yeah, I'm going to use this picture idea some time.


Day 19

I picked the Wenger Pocket Tool Chest for today, and I discovered that it has a superb bottle opener for its size. Popped the cap off in one go with ease. It's a very nice little SAK I think I might stick with it for a day or two.



Well, I guess I'll have to open a bottle with my Matterhorn plus too then, for research.

kamakiri Day 20:

Happy Hoffritz Wednesday!  Change of guard candidates for the day:



Not the US.PAT.PEND. Hoffritz 135...Not the same knife, but already carried a Craftsman US.PAT.PEND knife earlier in the Disco Challenge.



Tough call...but I already use Outdoorsman models a lot.  Maybe next Wednesday for this one or a different Outdoorsman later.  Besides, I love the satin finish on this one:



Hoffritz/Elinox/Victoria 1237U (1237) - Satin Finish







...and forgot to take a pic of the Wood Saw nail nick.  :facepalm:

2/3rds of the way in the Challenge...only 10 days left!  :o  :(

 :cheers: Thanks Ivo and Barry! Luckily for me, this challenge is helping motivate me to reorganize and re-package the whole collection.  Stuff is easier to find when I have it out or actually have it labelled!  :woohoo:

My other BYSAK is still MIA though.  :facepalm:  :oops:

Rizio - Thanks...and I like seeing the MC/Astronaut in use...you should've joined us for the Ranger/MC challenge last month!

I need to pick up one of the Japanese market Master Craftsman :D
:tu: Yeah you do!  Usually available, even if a bit spendy for how new they are.  No regrets on mine!
