Good work everyone! I agree with the questions above  :pok:

Day 21

Used the SwissTool Spirit blade to open up some more Lavazza qualità oro beans - beauty shot with coffee paraphernalia and Rizio enjoying the cappuccino after!

That's awesome, you are the first I've seen to mod pants to fit knife, instead of the other way around. :like:

 :hatsoff:  I don't like things hanging off my waist so used to clip to the inside of a pocket, a lot of times it would fall out so started using the button clip thing, the whole lot fits nicely in a ruler pocket so i sew a button there, nice and secure and easy to hand, when i pull out the knife the sheath stays where it is, work trousers btw, i don't go round with a fixie  :tu:

Day 21  Might as well have this as the daily pic too seeing as i'm not going anywhere today

That's a job well done, I love wearing my 5.11 cargo pants, but they usually only have a folding knife/magazine pocket upfront, but not a deep ruler pocket like yours.  Whenever I carry my small fixed blade, I just slip it in the main pocket with the sheath and have to pay extra attention it won't fall out when I sit down.

Day 21

Wife was busy making garlic bread when I sneaked into the kitchen pretending I was going to be helpful, she knew far too well I was only in for finding use for my Swisstool, so this was the picture I managed to take before I got kicked out. :facepalm: :D

I guess we are using it opposite way of each other, here in sweden pretty much all workpants already has that button but I don't like the ratteling sound it makes and take off the button keeping the knife and sheath tucked down instead

Day 21: All gatherings are cancelled here, as most anywhere, so our Church service was held on Instant Messaging.  The Swisstool worked great as a phone holder using the straight edge screwdriver as a base!

Looks like you got something good and yummy, despite not knowing enough to stay out of the kitchen when the wife is cooking.

Day 21
A bottle of essential oil was almost gone so used the Spirit to remove the dropper cap to get out the little that was left.  The little driver worked great to start then the hook helped even more just lift it off.

It’s a Bialetti Kona made with stainless steel, preferable to the aluminium of the standard Bialetti Moka, though sadly more expensive (though I’ve had it for 23 years now - just repack the rubber gaskets every 5 years or so).

Jnoxyd - that mafioso logo of Bialetti is such fun!

Bonus day 21

Tried the corkscrew attachment on the Spirit - well, it works, but if I’m at home, I’ll stick to my Campagnolo (for older bottles) or my Claude Dozorme - but they are one trick ponies!

I've always wondered how well the corkscrews work on these tools.  Thanks for letting us know!

Day 21 :

Mrs m47 stitched a simple pouch for my Spirit so it can stand still in my Maxpedition CAP (It had the bad habit to slide/shift to the bottom)

What are the sand for?

The sand-filled Tabasco bottle will be used as a weight to keep fabric from sliding while cutting large pieces :)

Not much hapening around here today.  Went to the market (Sam's Club) and although several items are low they had most (no TP or eggs to be found) of the essentials on hand.  And those they did not have we are already well stoked on.  Best of all the hadpleny of Apples for my Spirit :whistle:

 :hatsoff:  day 21 -


Control panel on elliptical would not power up.  No idea when last used since I get my steps in at the Y. 


Apparently a long time.


AWL and FILE corrected issue along with new batteries. 
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

I used the file on the Swiss Tool to smooth out a slightly rough area on the spine of my new pocket knife.

Peruzing aroud the forum I stopped by the Shutter Shop and found the March Calendar thread lacking in Madness so I decide to share a small spattering of our Madness and make a few nominations to the thread.
