What dose the 7 represent?  :dunno:

Days in a week when you can use a Christy knife?...

While reaching the Christy knife I came across this post over at BF. The info contain in this post will help to date the older Christy knives.    :tu:

Thats one of the things I like about the Christy; its been around long enough to have been through three or four generations and some changes. maybe Hal Christy could print out a primer on the evolution of the Christy knife? That would be so interesting!
Don't get too serious, just enough will do.

IT'S HEEEEERE!! :ahhh

I was ready to go grocery shopping (day off) and noticed the postie 2 houses up the street.
So placed the car in park and waited a minute or 2.
Sure enough, he steps out and hands me an envelope!

Off for groceries...
While waiting a little while I decided to take a peek. Oops, forgot a knife at home :facepalm:
Grabbed a cheapo keychain knife that I placed in the wife's car for emergency use and opened the envelope.

Before I had a good look, the wife got back to the car and we had to move to the next stop.

Just got home and turns out, there's not only a Christy knife but also a nice card and some cookies!
But.... also a second Christy knife in even better condition!! :ahhh

Thank you so much Lisa!! One of them already disappeared into my pocket (almost literally with such a slim profile :rofl: ) and I can very much see and feel for myself now that this little tool definitely deserves it's own thread here on MTO :tu:

Awesome Mechanickal!
I didn't want you to only have one that was already used, so I included that brand new purchased directly from Christy knife!  :salute:
Happy to read they arrived!

P.S. I added the ball chain to them.  Christy used to, but uses a split ring now on the new ones.
Rest in peace ColoSwiss, you will always be remembered.

I noticed! And I like the fact that you did because the ball chain is part of the charm :D

I've been using it as a fidget tool all day :rofl:

Luckily, she lets me be without being interested all that much.
She's in the "your knives are too sharp" camp :facepalm:

That's excellent, nice one. :tu:

I was able to give mine its first proper run out this evening. It made short work of a box for the recycling.

Second day. Hasn't left my side.

I'm led to believe Lisa actually got me a very old variant in my pocket.

Older slide, patent number present and concave lock button.



I love these little things!

Yep, and old and a new so you could see the variation. 
Most days I carry an old variant.  :salute:
