I'd be in on this, but I've been doing the classic challenge since August of 2022 when I decided to make it my real world EDC.  It's been an interesting three years, and I'll be cheering you all on from the sidelines.

It will be interesting to see if this changes your world like it did to mine.  Like a light bulb going on over your head.
Don't get too serious, just enough will do.

Day 1: Looking great everyone!  This is my oldest Classic.  I have a few more floating around here somewhere  :D.  I'll be carrying mine on a Vic neck lanyard like I used for the Executive last month.

Thank you, Barry! :hatsoff:

Nice pic and lanyard! :like: :2tu:

Day 1:

I don’t plan to abuse it but do plan on putting the “GOAT” knife through its paces. So far today, it’s only been called on to separate a kid’s Lego brick.

Powernoodle Day 1




We just had a roof installed, and they were kind enough to leave this carpenter's pencil behind which is now in my pocket.

Day 1

My first post of the challenge. I'm not sure what I will get into today. I thought I would at least share a pic of the classic I am carrying today. I will post a pic if I put this little fella to work. For the duration of the challenge, I will likely post a pic of whatever classic I am carrying for the day and then post again if I put it to work.

Great start to this challenge!!!

Very nice examples shown via pictures.

Happy New Year to awl !   

I will enjoy following along, before this challenge started I found myself looking. Besides the two I shared, I believe three or is it four classics are in route to my home base. 🤪

Sick right  :think:   think I will be gifting CLASSICs in the future.

Stay glow is so  :drool: worthy…

If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

Happy New Year everyone!

Day 1

Pocket dump.  Usually I would have a SAK Camper in place of the Classic.

Rest in peace ColoSwiss, you will always be remembered.

Here are the 2 Classics I will be using for the Challenge.
The 100th Anniversary Classic is way too cool! :like:

My bagel wasn't quite cut all the way through this morning. So Stayglow to the rescue!
A tasty-looking breakfast! :drool:

We just had a roof installed...
A roof is one reason I moved into my present apartment. I was quoted north of $20,000 to have a new roof put on my previous house.

Pocket dump.
Graham cracker ChapStick, eh? I presume that's a seasonal thing?
USN 2000-2006

Culling of the knife and multi herds in progress...

If I pay five figures for something, it better have wings or a foundation!

I get the S'Mores 3 pack.  Graham Cracker is my favorite though.

Day 2: Cutting open some really good chips!  I have rarely found a blade that cuts as well as a 58mm does.

I still need to get my hands on one of those Vic neck lanyards. Seems like the perfect way to carry a Classic.
