Nice work, everyone! Seeing all the scissors at work, I thought I’d join in!

Day 25

The InvesTigator goes nail trimming - always a little awkward using the left hand despite decades of practice!

Ron - enjoy the day off, hopefully it will be nice and relaxing

Max - seems your really enjoying that new mod. :tu:

September 25 - Used the modified pioneers small screwdriver on the can opener to fix a closet door latch last night. Today I used it to open a package of food for breakfast.

It is quite revealing when you document your daily knife usage for a month. I've been reviewing all of the tasks I used the knife for and have determined that I've had no need for a tactical, fast opening, steel door puncturing, prybar of a knife so far this month.  Anyway the titanium scaled, ironwood handled pioneer has served well so far.

Happy Fall 2019!

That is one thing I find fun about the challenges.  I’ve also found that sometimes I experiment with using the SAK to see how well different tools do different tasks, which leads me more to using it more.  One example is how well the back edge of the combo tool works for scrapping stickers off prescription bottles.

I've been boring- Knife blade to slice up some mushrooms for a dinner dish, and the scissors to get into plastic bags for shelf parts. Nothing exciting...

Today was a good day, in fact a great day.


He is an interesting person. First time I heard about him was in a fountain pen magazine. Our solar system edition by Visconti IIRC. He spent his whole childhood at the NYC planetary. Enjoy.  :tu:
Thanks for that interesting tidbit, (forgot to reply yesterday) :)

Nice collection and storage idea, Exeter! KCCO - been tempted by that one in the past myself - nice find! Great work once again everyone!

Day 26

Up early for what will be long day at work, so freed some new toys, sorry tools, from their packaging (sadly the InvesTigator is not up to cutting cables!)....

KCCO, like the new addition.

Day 26
I’ll probably have actual use later, but thought I’d post a snack picture of what you can have when instead of cutting and eating apples you change them into other food. 
Apple Fritter and Apple Cider with whiskey to wash it down.

Great usage everyone, and some very nice deliveries!  :like:

Got myself some brass shim stock for mods. Thinner than a standard sheet of paper, 2 thousandths of an inch.

Naked Compact scissors cut the wrapping without scratching the brass. Now to make some washers.  :salute:

Some nice usage and great SAK finds.

September 26- another busy day at work. The modified pioneer is at hand waiting for it's next work assignment.  Used it to cut some pex tubing yesterday evening. Sorry no pictures today!
Cheers!
