Let me know when you want to do it LC.  I'll ride with you on a 60 day.

I am considering continuing the challenge when I return state side, lagging the 7 days I missed. 
Trying to keep the Spirit😜. Must allow the PE Spear point version a chance😜
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

:like:  I think that's exactly what Vic had in mind with these scissors.  A bit stronger for the heavy duty work.  I'd love to chat with the designer to get their input.  It's strange that they only wound up on the Spirit. It would seem like they'd be on the bigger Swisstool too.
That would be good idea, scissors noq pn SwissTool is bit akward to use cause scissors feel too light compared to rest tool. Spirit kind scissors on SwissTool would make scissors heavy duty on heavy duty tool.

Day 27

Carving pumpkins with the butter blade. Some were so thick I had to supplement with the Opinel as the serrated portion of the blade was just too short

I like serrated blades as orange peelers. The butter blade is no exception.

Day 28

Filled a green bin with trimmings from the yard, mostly used the Bahco Laplander as the Bosch needed charging but both it and the Spirit got a quick run



Followed by a cold one :cheers:

*Day 28*



Spirit helps make a herbal tea to relieve my headache, Little gal has been sicked for past couple of days and half the house is probably affected.  Despite being a bit under the weather, she insisted to participate the hide-n-seek with everyone before going to sleep each night.

Very nice!  I got the pumpkin for a while, but still yet have to get started.  Local weather is always warm year round, and I need to carefully carve out all the meaty part as much as possible and treat it with bleach water, before the whole thing get moldy within a day or two.  I remembered I never have the same problem when I was in East coast US during Halloweens season.
