What MANLY thing did your (traditional) knife do today?

Sharpened the coping blade and stopped the dog shop knife. Since it got used on two dog collars over the weekend that were pretty gritty. We are in horse country at one shop and we get a lot of working dogs.(or at least they are running around with the horses all day having a blast.) The metal-snap collars on these two labs had rusted shut.

(I made Ken do this blade combo, so no poking fun at him over the design.):eek:

Used this bad boy to mortally wound some mail and slice up an apple for breakfast. It is not near as pretty as the picture Kerry took of it a while back. The apple will never be the same.

Oh, lots of love for those; That was my competition weapon, I married an epeeist, and our son fences epee.

However, the upcoming competition is for my younger foilists; they get my attention first.

Also, those foil cords just seem to break more easily than epee cords.
 
Today I used my ESEE Junglas to gently spoon caviar into my trophy wife's mouth. After she had her fill, I used it to trim my handle bar mustache and then cleanly slice the end off of my fine cuban cigar. It was a long morning lounging in my dimly lit, library style office smoking cigars and going over my stock portfolio...

Ok... I have to admit, not all of that was true... For starters, I don't have the slightest clue what a stock portfolio is...

Today was a good day for my yellow Case CV Sodbuster. I was raking leaves into bags all day, trucking them over to the recycling center, and slashing 'em open. It was dirty work, but the Sodbuster handled it like a champ. She's still sharp too.
 
Just finished using the clip blade of my Buck 307 stockman to do a little 'poor man's shredding' on some junk mail before I, umm... 'disposed' of it.

Before that, used same said blade to slash, de-pit and quarter a plum. Interesting thing, plum juice looks a whole lot like blood on the blade... :eek:
 
I used the sheepsfoot blade on my amber bone Case 63032 to open a box dropped off by UPS that contained an American Girl doll and accessories for my daughter for Christmas. Then I used the clip point blade to spear the packing peanuts that fell on the floor while my wife inspected the goods.
 
I used the main clip blade on my Hen & Rooster stockman to break down boxes that contained Feline Leukemia test kits for the kitties at my wife's cat rescue organization.

Bonus Points:
Then I sliced open one of the soft cold packs and dipped the blade into the soft, clear, gelatinous innards as it bled out. :D

BuaHaHaHa.......

(Then I cleaned up the mess I made before I got yelled at.)

Oh Brother!!!! Yeah I guess we are a sad group after-all. (NOT!) I can proudly say that I used my stockman to open all the new stuff that needed opening after my trip to Cabela's today. A very manly store. Tonight I will be setting my other knives aside for deer camp this weekend. More manliness.

I was at a McAllisters Deli trying my best to saw through my grilled chicken atop my salad with their butter knife. Disgusted with it's performance, I laid it down on the table with a disapproving glare at the sorry excuse for a cutting tool.

My wife already knew what I was digging in my pocket for as she took that dull butter knife and used it for something on her plate. I got my Schrade 881 out, pulled the large blade open, and sliced right through my chicken until it was reduced from strips down to bite sized portions.

I keep that 1095 steel sexy and made short work of that yardbird. I went ahead and keenly halved the little grape tomatoes while I was at it in case one of them decided to lodge in my windpipe.

Passerby and onlookers be danged.....bunch of jealous fools that they were. For not only was I dining with the finest looking lady in the land, I had a 40 year old stockman, with deep patina stained blades, and edges polished and ready for action. :D
 
I don't like to brag but I used my trusty stockman today to extricate the 50 ft. Woman after she had gotten herself tangled up and ensnared in a power line somehow.
Hazards of the occupation, I s'pose. :eek:

Needless to say she showered me with affection (and me, a married man no less!) and offered me a small token of her gratitude which you can see below...

I used my Military to open my wife's kotex box. Because I was told to do so.

:D :thumbup: Winner for most pathetic. A 'Military' to boot. Sad thing is, I've probably done the same task, just too embarrassed to admit. Doesn't really even take a tool to open though does it? :D :D

I think we may have a winner :D.... Its going to be awful hard to top, rescuing a damsel in distress.
Even if she is 50 feet tall :eek:. Chivalry lives on in Traditional :cool:
 
I used my little 120T to cut an Irish pennant off the cuff of my suit in church last week does that count as manly?
