Day 1 - New dawn, new challenge

As it is morning over here I have not gotten to use the Wave yet, but I wanted to share this sunrise. I will be carrying this tool with the pocket clip on the weekends and after hours, for work I use a leather sheath as I find them most durable.

Best of luck to all participants, I am really looking forward to seeing you all! :cheers:

Great sunrise picture, nakken  :like:

Day 1: breakfast of champions
Serrated blade cuts bagels better than any other knife we have in the kitchen.

Day 1


I don't want to overuse my current Waves, so I decided to buy a new Wave for this challenge.  I didn't have a stainless Wave anyway, so this was a perfect excuse to get one.

Surprisingly, I haven't "daily carried" a Wave yet.  I've had one in my car for years, but I always thought they were too large to regularly carry in my pocket.  I recently survived 30 days carrying a ST300 and another 30 days carrying a ST200, so 30 days carrying a Wave should be a cinch.   :tu:

Here's my newest member of my family.  I can't find a date stamp on it, but it's brand new from Leatherman.

Great start!   
I am following along as well!  I am involved with Alan's October Fixie Challenge. 

I will admit, the WAVE challenge would be easier for me, yet realized already completed. 

Have fun and experiment with AWL the implements!
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

We are off to a great start. Excellent photos, y'awl! :tu:

Day 1

I failed to get action shots, but the Wave was used to unbox some new table runners. The plain edge blade cut the tape on the box, and the scissors handled those obnoxious plastic staple things.

Glad your travel is going well, Poncho. And that is some good use, Farmer :tu:

Day 2
It is a quiet Sunday morning over here. I doubt there will be much use today, but we are currently catching up on some magazines. Have a great day everyone!

I usually don't use the small handle-scissors on many Leathermans... I need to make an effort to use the Wave scissors this month.  :tu:

Nice Leatherman pic, but I'm also eyeing that knife!

Thanks!  Found them!   They were almost impossible to see without a flashlight.  I guess that will be my "Day 2" pics.  March 2022 and December 2021... he's just a baby.
