Today I took my gf and 3 kids to the woods for a nice stroll.

Some rain, but more sun. We ate a lot of wild berries we found and my almost 2 year old did a great job finding the black ones (instead of the red/not ripe ones) for himself.
So, I peeled two apples with my 3.5" xm-18. It did very well. I found the edge did not dull at all and I couldn't find any chips :D
I also cut off some twigs for them to play with and stripped the leaves off.
that was about all the action I could give the 3.5" today :thumbup:

my 3" saw some more action today (besides sharpening it to hair whittling level), but I'll leave that for the 'what did you do with your xm-18 today' thread.

I did the mandatory "I'm in the woods so I make a fire" thing which the kids loved and made some shots of the knife and my family for some good memories.

I'm sharing the knife part with you guys, enjoy
