Cut some tape. Finished up all of the high bay fixtures in the building, stripped the cords on them. Changed out a few exit and emergency lights. Used the tanto to pry a little and push in the tabs to open the fixtures. One of the old outside remotes was siliconed to the wall. Used the Inkosi to cut all the old silicone out of the way. Cut the center plastic knockout out with knife instead of beating it out, lot easier just to hammer it out

Sliced up my somewhat cold leftover pizza for lunch, cut some tape, opened some wrapping, stripped out some wire. Had to run to a job for a couple hours to move some PVC conduit in this big bolder wall/waterfall feature with a bunch of lights in it. Bricklayers tried to “help” then called us. Used the tanto to scrape some dried purple primer off of my pipe to try and re-glue a coupling on. Hit some mortar a few times while scraping and got some new marks on the blade. That front edge comes in handy in certain situations. Opened up a brownie for my son, complete excuse to use a knife

I used my Bugout to make a lanyard for this QSP Penquin I'm giving to a friend.

Then I used the Penquin to make a new lanyard for the fixed blade I EDC

Nice work.... I haven't yet had enuf courage to try making a fob/lanyard for my special knives..
I'm jealous.

Now here’s the winner for my day. Little man and me went out an about today. Ended up about an hour and a half into the woods on foot. No where near civilization, toilet paper or a bathroom. My son tells me “daddy I really gotta poop”. I ask if he can hold it and of course he says no I gotta go now, so we improvise. I take my 21 and cut up half of my boxers for toilet paper. First poop in the woods, proud dad moment. Talk about father son bonding. Happy fourth everyone :D
(And no he’s not pooping in the picture ;))

I usually use a knife for few months to see if it's suitable for my line of work, to test the steel and design.
Currently I'm running my ManixII LX with S90V. Absolutely love the design and the steel, fairly sturdy knife but nothing like the CS Golden Eye or Spyderco GB1, two of my all time favorites...
I like large knives for work, my hands are fairly large too and I prefer comfortable grip, this LX Manix i very well thought, but I'm not sure about the blade length... I think the smaller model that I ran for few months before I got this-one was more suitable for work with shorter blade, still on the fence on this-one...

XL S90V

Previous Manix II laminate cpm154/S90V
I messed up the tip, repaired it and retired the knife... :D

Cut up some cardboard, unnecessarily opened some snacks, helped with breakfast and supper opening meat packages. Sliced up mushrooms and jalapeños for some burgers tonite. Man does a tanto just perform that task horribly compared to something with some belly. Finally opened up my Father’s Day gift. Edge was getting dull to begin with, carving my initials in the bottom of the coffee cup/thermos most likely finished it off
