Would you care to share what were the last 3 things you used your knife for and in what time frame please
 
I used my personal sword to cut a 20-foot cardboard carpet tube into four pieces so it could fit into a dumpster. Then I cut a wooden door in half so it could also fit into the dumpster. After that I hacked a random chunk of wood out of a 2x4, then put the sword away. :)

Swords: more useful than you think!

Used my machete to cut back bamboo yesterday. Also yesterday used my machete to cut back blackberries that are starting to grow into our other fruit fields on the farm. Blackberries mean buisness!! Tonight I used my A10 edc to open some packaged materials at work.
 
Cut open a cardboard box, took out a package and cut the wrapping off.
Cut open a coffee sachet.
Cut several cable ties off some wiring.
With a Para 2, this afternoon, in the space of a few hours.

Pretty mundane really. But hey, I felt good doing it :)
 
Opened two boxes (cut the tape), sliced an apple, and cut a string. Yesterday afternoon.
 
Opened many boxes (baby girls brith day party), then opened all those toys, cut those stupid ties that hold them in. Then broke down some boxes to stack up to burn them. Relatively easy day. Bout 4 hours
 
Yesterday was my Jeep Club's annual canoe trip and then trail run; so all three things were yesterday albeit not with the same knife.

1. Used my Pacific Salt PE to stab some already cut up strawberries that a buddy's g/f offered me during lunch.
2. Used the serrated blade of the Leatherman Wave to cut a piece of hose from a PVC line on my son's rig.
3. Used the serrated blade of the Leatherman Wave to cut the wire tie off of a tow strap.
 
Cut Avo, deburred some sharp corners of some mild steel and ate breakfast. Last 6 hours.
 
Over the weekend I used regular knives for regular stuff. Cut food, cut some boxes open, etc.

Friday I cut open a mess of plastic bottles, cut open some thin metal containers, and cut about 30 boxes open. I beat on some metal shipping containers, stabbed into wood flooring, and opened some crates.
 
Mecha wins.

Meanwhile I struggled to open an envelope and slightly tore the letter because I was too lazy to get up and reach for my Opinel. The knife did make short work of two apples during the day though.
 
Opened a box, cut plastic packaging, cut zip-ties. All at work in a span of 5 minutes.
 
Cut open the pack of zip ties, Cut the ends off the used zip ties, scraped the paint off a cat5 end that the custodians painted. That was just in the first 15 minutes of work.
 
I carried my GEC #61 smooth bone Congress today
I worked out in the vineyard, and the last three things I used it for were;
The secondary sheepsfoot is the blade I use rough, and I dug out a couple of weeds carrying seedpods, cut excess new growth on the base of a couple of vines and used it to scrape a wooden handle to 'rough it up.'
I used the primary sheepsfoot to cut excess buds off of replacement vines, to 'shape' them for future growth,
and at the end of the day, I used the pen blade to scrape the dirt out from my nails.

This morning to open a fresh bag of coffee
a few minutes ago I cut a cardboard box to throw in the recycling
Just cut a rogue thread that was hanging from my cargo shorts
 
Cut some rope to length for a crawdad trap, whittled, and cut up a couple of apples to eat.
 
1. Cut open a bag of crackers with my Fiddleback Hiking Buddy yesterday.
2. Broke down large Amazon box with my Viper Rhino on Saturday.
3. Opened said large Amazon box with my Viper Rhino on Saturday.
 
I cut the front off a Straub 6 pack, cut a sandwich, and cut some string for my girlfriend.
 
Just now, I used my Case CV Slimline Trapper to cut up a banana.
Earlier this morning, it severed a loose string from my shirt.
And yesterday, I used its edge to remove some green compound from my strop.:)
 
1) Yesterday used Tramonita machete trimming back some bushes around the house.
2) Yesterday cut some plastic tubing to attach to a Blichman Beer Gun to bottle up a batch of home-brew from my keg.
3) Used my Victorinox santoku knife in the kitchen this morning chopping veggies for an omelet.
