I'm not officially in this challenge, been away too long so I missed this.
But… I'm working the night shift now and of course I'm carrying my Huntsman with me.
It's always on my duty belt, love it.
When I'm in 'civilian' clothes mostly carry a MiniChamp or a Classic SD.

:iagree: very nice!

Bought a SilverTech Climber some years ago. Couple of months later I could order a SAK with points I saved with my phone contract.
Ordered this one, got it for free! Still like it very much.

Hook twice (removing a rubber tie-down we use to help keep the gate shut and helping pull my boot on). I also used the scissors to open the probiotic, and the pen blade to open some stuff from today's Walmart trip. Also, did some tinkering with the small screwdriver.

I went with the belt sheath today. This isn't your average Zermatt, or the nylon sheath that comes free with some Huntsman versions, but a handmade sheath. I'd bought a pair of 84mms (a Recruit and an Artisan) as well as a Wenger Master, and they came with three of these, each of a different size, and none fit the knives they came with, and the smallest had the belt loop broke.  This is the one I use for my 4-5 layer models (Master Gardener, Huntsman, Ranger), and there's another that fits the old 100mm Soldier like a glove.  It originally had the Artisan in it, which I don't have handy, as it's in Connecticut at Vic getting some repairs done to the scissors (new spring ,and replacing a poor repair a former owner did, which replaced the screw with a piece of brass just smashed in the hole).

I got my miles out of cars that were turned in to the auction to be sold. We cleaned them and it seemed like every car had the miles in them...and change, lots of change!  :cheers:

It was a little thing printed on the side of a pack of Marlboro cigarettes. You saved the miles and then looked thru the catalog and picked what you wanted and sent the miles in and you got your item. Think they were 5 miles each....back years ago...may have been state side. I got the SAK and a pack.
Lousy photo, sorry

Mine has spent a lot of time on my duty belt too Serena!  Prior to getting my Rebar, it was my EDC for work.

Kitchen duty!  The older I get the more I love cooking :D. Nothing fancy yet....opened one of those blasted pull tabs on a can of dog food with the pre-90 degree cap lifter.  I have a time trying to get those things up to the point where I can pull on them.  After that, I made a cuppa PG Tips for the Mrs. and myself.  The saw is great in snagging tea bags!  Nix, send me the info on that Canadian tea you get :D

Found a feather in the yard. No longer of any use to the bird but I thought it would make a nice picture.

The awl is very good and more so out in the woods.
The cap lifter...I don’t drink and the drinking I do are twist off...so it is used more as screw driver...the can opener is just great.  :tu: :like:
