Yes Sir.

Picked up two sets, black and green along with some black tweezers and the like to go along with em.

Fit perfectly and I love the little bit of texture they give the grip.

Just back from Victorinox with a new saw and some TLC, my Champion.

Not actually carrying it because March but still a great tool.

That looks fun, Sos24! I thought I’d use my latest to open some fresh beans for this morning’s cappuccino.

I'm only briefly perusing the board today, but I did want to get this photo posted.

I am a long time lover of the Snow Peak titanium spork.

Did you know that there's a long handle version now? It rocks for reaching the bottom of those freeze dried meals in a bag.

My Gibson tumbler and Vic troubleshooter. Trust me, there’s coffee in there.

Nice!  What kind of work did he do for them?

He tested the bodies of their acoustic guitars for ways to tweak them for the best sound.  It was a different sort of thing for him as he usually did work on submarines and torpedoes.  He was employed by our local university for a long time.

That's super cool.  I'm an acoustic guitar player myself.  What time frame did he work there, and which location? My J-45 is a 1996 made in Bozeman, MT.  It would be pretty cool if he maybe worked on it!

Cool, that would most likely be their Nashville facility (they had a Memphis facility for awhile, but as far as I know it was only custom electrics).  If memory serves they made acoustics in Nashville overlapping with Kalamazoo, MI production  from the late 70's until the mid 80's when they moved most (all?) acoustic production to Bozeman, MT.
