Day 16

For lack of other options, I had to sign a document with the XLT's pen today. Unfortunately, I did not have my camera ready, so I can only post a vanity picture...

Day 15

Was playing with the Giant this afternoon, and not quite sure what's this blade is for...but at least it did ok as a sugar spatula.

That is a weird blade indeed. I guess that is what happens if you have to fill so many layers.

(Image removed from quote.)

Whenever I play with different tools/blades on Giant and do think that in some way, it really is a mini encyclopedia of the Wenger tool history.  It is as if someone took a snap shots of all the tools once flourished in the Wenger product line, and stack all these photos into a collage.  Don't get me wrong, I am a Victorinox 'fanboy' thru and thru, but in terms of innovation and creativity, I do have to give it to Wenger.

I have been collecting Traditional knives in recent years, and it really is quite fascinating to learn about the history of clip point blade and US cutlery history.  So today I pulled out two of the clip point blades on Giant for comparison, and use one of them for coffee duty.

Great picture Comis! I love seeing all the tools included

I think it depends how good is your nail strength--though I have toughen my nail considerably in recent years for collecting traditional knives, a few of these tools can be real nail breaker if you are not careful when pulling them out.

I think anyone trying to use their pen with their large size SAK in this challenge is pretty cool.  Must not be easy to hold onto a large size SAK as such. :cheers:

The milk is expiring in the fridge and gonna use some for coffee this afternoon, tried to use the pliers on Giant for the task but it didn't end too well.  It did splatter everywhere and made a small mess, but lucky Mrs aren't around to see it.

No kidding, I totally share the same sentiment--some of those old timers are surely nail breakers if not careful.  :D
