Todays carry. This 110 has the Idaho tang stamp 2005. I bought it for the tang stamp. Yes I do collect some knives for the tang stamps.    :D

 :dunno:   Buck's S30V seems to take a great edge. And that belly gets into some curvy spots well. But! Do be aware of that needle tip and where it is going!  :ahhh

The 110 Pro doing its usual thing.  It also opened up a few boxes at work, but no action shots there.

Day 06:


Perhaps due to the boredom of isolation....or Mrs Nix's reminders....every hour.....I trimmed up my beard today. I used electric clippers to get the bulk of the job done, but then decided to shave my neck area. Only after lathering up did I realize I didn't have my razor ready to go.... The Buck 110 served amazingly well. Really surprised me. (no action shots, sorry.)

After the shave (and a quick clean up of the 110, I made a snack. Things are getting tight. We're reduced to hardtack and curdled cow's milk.

It's the Dokka.
Picked it up last year on honeymoon in Norway.
I preferred the Bleja at the time, but couldn't find one there.
Even the Dokka was quite the challenge to get my hands on...

Anyway, glad I have it and a perfect souvenir from our lovely honeymoon :tu:
Good looking knife and a very nice souvenir :like:

Day 7: Trimmed the edge of some trimming cord so that it would fit in my power trimmer.  Lots of package opening and coffee packets too! 🍵

DAY 6

Thought some of you might be interest in a size comparison between the 110 and the 55

It is interesting that the 110 and 55 are so different.
Yet, like model numbers, the 55 is one half the size of the 110. 
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

:like: Great use and pretty amazing skill to shave with a knife, it's on my bucket list, always wanted to learn how to do that.

Though I own both, never put them side by side for the comparison, that's a cool pix and make me realize how big is the 110 vs 55. :tu:

As much as I love the 55 it would be nice if it was identical and half the size
