This has been another great 30 day challenge.  I love the compact nature of the Soldier and the precision of it's design and build.  I would however not be honest if I did not admit to missing my Compact and Spirit. 

Day 30
Thought it would only be appropriate for my 1930 to take day 30.
Dinner Time and it proved far better than the steak knife provided at the restaurant.

Many congratulations to all on gaining their badge!  :cheers:

Day 30 + 2

Well the postie finally delivered the parcel Myron sent me more than 3 weeks ago, a 1965 red scaled Wenger M61 which also happens to be my BYSAK!  :mail: :woohoo:

Here it is in my now 5-strong stick of soldiers, ‘65, ‘71, ‘84, ‘05 and ‘19!

Congrats on your package and BYSAK Riz! You couldn't have asked for a more ironic timing on the package :salute:

Day 31

Here's to the end of the challenge - cheers to all  :cheers:

Maybe two challenges in a row was too much, maybe the GAK and I are just not made for each other or maybe it's Corona tiredness, but I doubt the GAK will get out of the drawer often henceforth. It's a very competent knife for sure. It just doesn't inspire me in the way other SAKs do, doesn't speak to my inner Macgyver. I am glad I gave it a try though.

Thanks very much Ray for hosting this challenge :hatsoff:

Challenges are a great time, but 23 in the last 24 months have pushed me into burnout phase.  I needed to take a break to regroup :facepalm:

Wow! really?

I am considering doing my own challenge with the Pioneer X starting today.
 
A couple of days ago I was a bit tired of challenges (2 back to back) but not so much anymore.  For me - uploading the pictures is the hardest part of the challenge... and sometimes    :facepalm:

Used that to open a LEGO set, 40370. This was last month's promo.I like LEGO, I just don't buy a ton of it at once; so the minimums are a bit much for these promos. My I bought it off Bricklink for not a whole lot  too much; $20. I am thinking about getting into LEGO trains.  My plans are to upfit this train for couplers, add some cars and track, and probably motorize it.

It sure is a good time for getting into Lego trains with the new Creator Expert one right around the corner :tu:
