What did you use your SAK for today?

[Grumpy Old Man]

I opened the envelope and then I had to sharpen the knife because Victorinox uses bad steel and has a very poor heat treatment.

Was the envelope made of concrete? I know it's not k390, but they use a perfectly serviceable steel in their products.

Maybe you're not hitting your apex or removing all of your burr.

In this case, the sharpening was done by a "professional"

I apologize if I sounded like a dick... Wasn't sure if you were being serious. Lots of guys don't like the steel.

If it is a real problem you're having it sounds very much like there's a wire edge or burr that didn't want to come off.

Ah, I see what the problem is. The knife was bearly sharpened.

Thanks Dan, 20 today.

I must say present wrapping is not my best skill.

I honestly don’t feel like explaining, except to say that it’s only through tremendous self control that foul language was not uttered, and all the implements used are shown extended here:

Foul language comes before, during and after my projects so no judgement here!!!

A cold morning+waxy bullets=stuck case in my 22 rifle. The can opener is a good tool to flick them out.

Success! I just posted some images in the ESEE thread mate.

I cut new hose to replace an old hose

 

[willisoften]

I used my 58mm Rambler to open the letters, slice the seal on some meds. Open a pack of potato bread.
Slit open a bag of bark clippings. I found that one leg of the tweezers will tighten the screw on my reading glasses. (Awkwardly at best)
I’m about to pop the top on a bottle of stout for lunch.

 

[afishhunter]

Hercules Pliers to hold a stainless steel micro mesh tea infuser, to filter out the loose leaf tea after nuking.
(adding the tea directly to the water then nuking makes a stronger cuppa T.)
Sorry. Need four hands to take a picture (using my tablet) of straining/filtering the tea. I only got two hands.

I will probably use it at least 2 er 3 more times ... mebby more ... for the same thing today, again tomorrow, the next day, day after that ... O.K. ... every day till I leave for the next life ...

 

[Wirelessjunkie]

Used scissors to trim my fingernails, can opener for a can of chili at lunch, toothpick for pickin teeth. SAK is Deluxe Tinker

 

[sonofwilfred]

One of my nephews has been brought up right. He texted me this just now.

 

[Wirelessjunkie]

Noticed the latch plate for the door to the deck was coming loose today, and the Deluxe Tinker was there to quickly tighten it back up again. Saved me a trip to the carport to grab a screwdriver.
