Day 26

Began refurbishing a new-to-me Swisschamp; came with bent CS, dulll blades, stiff (particularly the pliers pivot), nicked scales and scratched blades, and missing eyeglass SD and toothpick. It will be a weekend/murse carry for me for sure!

Nice pic, Juan! :like: :2tu:

Congratulations on the SwissChamp! :woohoo:

Barry, VICMAN, thank you!

Barry, its true that it is nice to find these "bargains", that with just a little elbow grease and TLC are back to their former glory. :like:

Today used mag to check my fuses on car, also SwissChamp and P4 helped me to repair my car bit while changing shock absorber. Still need to change few parts on my car and it should be running again.

:like: :like: Can't beat those scissors for that short of a dedicated pair of bandage scissors.  Hope you heal up fast Humayd!
Thanks Barry.
Yep,the scissors were handy.

Day 26
Explorers from different eras.
I haven't been using the Explorer much,so decided to give it some time today,and then went with the older model.
Mag glass and scissors use,dressing change,checking the wound,usual stuff.
  [ You are not allowed to view this attachment ]  

The older Explorer scissors needed a bit of work,I started by using the eyeglass screwdriver from the Champ to tighten the pivot screw,but it kept working loose.  I knew it was blunt but i was avoiding sharpening it,which I eventually did.

Good to see so many great pics still being posted here. Though I'm not in this Challenge I found this little "sport" in my lawn and thought it deserved some recognition so I brought out my Black Explorer. I'm guessing it's a tiny pansy that's plucky enough to hide from my mowing.
