U know I'm ashamed to say this but I may use my knife for things I shouldn't on the farm but our knives get worked hard. But we take care of em like oil, clean, and sharpen em. If we break a blade we file it back to a usable point and keep usin them. A knife is made to b used no matter how u use them, from cleaning ur finger nails to skinning a deer ur using ur knife. Today I cut some baling twine and Tamar who knows. Just keep em sharp! My granddaddy says a lazy man carries a dull knife. I say use them to they fall apart because case and GEC makes em every day!

Well.. I lost my Delica 4 at my buddy's place last Saturday.. I've asked if he has seen it around, but no luck. I'll look for it next time I go over, but who knows.
So today I'm carrying my Victorinox farmer. I've been thinking about about picking up a cheaper knife (even cheaper than the Delica!!) to carry around and I've been looking at the enlan el-02b and el-01. Anyone have experience with them??

Just some food prep for my Tidioute 73 used the spey blade to cut my pork tenderloin for breakfast and some garlic olives to go on my sandwich for lunch.

yesterday my scout knife got a good workout. I was installing some bushings on my car and had to do some trimming and package opening. Also the screwdriver was incredibly useful for a multitude of small tasks. I managed to cross thread some very large 14mm bolts and I had to tap the holes in the frame to fix my mistake. I sure am glad it worked out though because the holes are directly in the frame (not very easy to replace)

Cutting duties at lunch - chicken, bread, and the paper cup that held the balsamic vinegar.

How thick is the handle on that, and what model? Looks great!
Edit: I mean the knife, the 1911 looks good too.

One more pic. @Seelow, I need to get a military. I have yet to even hold one!
Gasp! Blasphemy! You should definitely try one. It's like the perfect "big" knife and rides like a knife half it's size. I used to have the all black version but traded it in a moment of weakness. After trading it, I lost all of my powers and became mortal once more until a few weeks ago when I had my favorite blacksmith make me one (Knifeworks) I then became The great Vargreneesh Thunderduck. Now sandwich's and hot pockets cower on fear of the 4 inches of slicing power that is the Military.
How's that dyed Echelon coming along?

I ordered an EL-01 because it was so cheap. It gets very good reviews by most people.

I plan to give it a shot tomorrow. Day off. I really want to get the CTS-XHP version of the Military. But I fear they may be all gone before I get the chance!
