I got hooked in 1989 or 1990, if memory serves me correctly. Very cool that you still have your first SAK...sadly, I cannot say the same.

Thank you Farmer X! :cheers:

Day 28

I really thought I used scissors a lot, but apparently not.  No uses today, just hanging out by the candle light.

The Yeoman helped cut some paracord.  Cut off zipper pulls and replaced with different color.

Day 29

Used the scissors to unwrap my new-to-me, lantern.  Will need a good clean to get the wax off the glass.

No uses, but I did manage to get a decent (for a beginner) batch of beeswax candles done.

Thank you Sos24 for hosting and to all who participated.
Seems every time I join a challenge the month goes by so quickly. 
I realize I don't use scissors as often as I thought I did, but when I need them, the SAK scissors are capable of the tasks I need them for.

Rest in peace ColoSwiss, you will always be remembered.

I have enjoyed participating and seeing all the posts.
The posts were pretty enjoyable for this spectator, too.

Much the same here. These days I only go for scissors when I need to cut precisely or when use of a blade could have disastrous results.

This was a great challenge, and a neat idea from Sos24!
