What big-knife job have you handled with a peanut?

[knifetester]

Not a big job, but I use a Peanut every morning to cut up an apple and open my mail. The apple has to be a granny smith or fuji, and I eat it with Trader Joe's flax seed peanut butter.

Biggest I did was push splitting kindling for a fire this summer, dry spruce about 3" diameter log into 3"x1/2" slats, then the other way into 1/2"x1/4" pieces... all about 8" or 9" long. Had to be reeeeaaal careful not to twist or flex the blade-would have snapped it off. Amazed Dad with that one, at what I am willing to do to/with that little knife.

She'll probably be okay as long as no fish get shot.

Oh, you don't know? The M2 is for the carp.

I'm no big outdoorsman or anything, I just use pocketknives for common chores. I have honestly been dropping to smaller and smaller sizes. For a long time I was caught up with toting big old clunkers, but like most of the ummmm "older" guys on here, time and health have been catching up, and I am finding it much more reasonable and prudent to cut on things with my 3-3/4'' copperheads. I even got a little Case Tommy Hart mini folding hunter, I love the thing and it's only 2-3/4''. I like folding hunter patterns, and I can whip this one out at Walmart and scrape my fingernails without a SWAT team responding.
