Those scissors are great for that!  I've done the same thing a couple of times  :tu:
Day 19
Got my wife new insoles for one of her favorite pairs of shoes.  The old insoles didn’t want to come out, so the chisel tool helped.  The scissors then trimmed to size.

NKD, Spirit opened the envelope with this Sailor Pro in it. I'd pay good money for a Spirit Sailor with a Marlin Spike... Not sure where they'd put it.

Spirit knife opened a snack of cheddar cheese.  The chisel tool opened and broke down a box containing a new blanket for Fisher.  The scissor then cut off the tag.

Haha, most likely snow by time I make the trip.

I leave next week Thursday for a week in Mexico, do best I told him was likely the week before Thanksgiving.

Expect snow👍.  Yet,  surprised by friend he says no freezing temps at his farm.  He is waiting to harvest his grapes for ICE wine.
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

That's a beautiful background Roc!

For Day 21, I used the saw to cut some low hanging branches from our maple tree.

Day 21

Morning walk, took the Spirit, encountered an absolutely lovely setting to pose the Spirit on a branch with  morning sun beams  creating a contrast of golden hues.
 :oops:  forgot my phone  :rant: :rofl:

So, I came home prepared a mug of coffee…

*Day 21*



There are probably numerous of ways to measure how good is a pair of scissors, and one way to measure 'agility' of the scissors is to help little guy to cut out his homework worksheets.  So far, my favorite is still the 91mm scissors, nimble and sharp, great for making curvy cuts in tight spaces.  The scissors on Spirit is a bit too bulky for the task.

I'm amazed Vic hasn't come out with bladeless multitools.  Given the places you can't legally carry a bladed item you'd think they'd be decent sellers

:iagree:

Even the jetsetter has scissors

A bladeless Farmer maybe, although even the awl would be problematic in Sydney such as it is

LM had a go with the Juice CS2 but again scissors, bladeless Rebar of course but that has locking tools so not sure how that’d go in UK for example although I assume no problem and that’s the market it’s aimed at
