Thanks, Barry!

Just replied to that thread.  If there's nothing slated for 2026 yet, maybe January would work?

And they can do it with “STYLE”!

So many different scales designs, and materials!

I think Barry’s “Space dust” was most interesting and entertaining scales of the “GOAT” scales make a statement.

I even added some Christmas themed units to my box, after holiday mark downs and I was not even part of the challenge.   Contagious read review if you dare!
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

It has always in my life, again and again, been a surprise to find out how little is needed. no matter knife, gun, car, tools, whatever, I think its a human trait to over estimate what we. need. In my admittedly neurotic quest for the maximum minimalism, I've pushed the envelope as to how small an object can go and still be functional at its intended task.  Ultra light backpacking and all the insanity that entails, crossing the country from Atlantic coast to the Pacific and back in a Smart car, then doing the same trip one summer on a Vespa Motorscooter, kayaking across the Chesapeake bay. I've been told by loving, but concerned family to get professional help, but I'm having fun so what the heck!

But after my period of infatuation with the Case peanut, and I found out that I really didn't need much knife for most things,  and I had a Victorinox classic on my keys anyways, I went the next step. Left my holy peanut home and just carried the classic. To my amazement, the sun still rose in the east, the earth kept spinning on its axis, and I opened mail, Amazon packages, cut twine, sharpened the pencil I carry, and trimmed my nails with the classic.

With experimentation I found that the rigid part of the scissors can  be used as an awl to make starter holes for a wood screw and the SD tip to drive a Phillips head wood screw.  I couldn't do that with my peanut! Yes, in most urban/suburban surroundings, a classic will do what you need.  :tu:
Don't get too serious, just enough will do.
