Hi folks
A few minutes ago I had the idea of asking chatgpt to write me a post for this thread

Here is what I asked;

Write a post for a traditional knife forum. The post must show an embedded picture of a Victorinox Cadet Swiss army knife and say something regarding how I got to use it today and the joy of carrying it.

Here is the answer

Title: Embracing the Everyday Joy: Victorinox Cadet by My Side

Hey fellow knife enthusiasts,

Just wanted to share a little story from my day that reminded me why I love carrying my Victorinox Cadet Swiss army knife everywhere I go. Today, I found myself in a situation where I needed a trusty tool to tackle a small task, and as always, my Cadet came to the rescue.

Whether it's opening packages, tightening a loose screw, or even just slicing an apple on the go, this compact companion has never let me down. Its sleek design and practicality make it a constant companion in my pocket, ready to assist at a moment's notice.

I've had this Cadet for years now, and every time I use it, I'm reminded of the quality craftsmanship and reliability that Victorinox is known for. Plus, there's something satisfying about the ritual of unfolding those familiar tools and putting them to work.

Here's a picture of my trusty Cadet in action today:

I've been saying for years that its silly to worry about manmade climate change when the machines will kill us all long before it becomes a catastrophe

Little Erickson Swayback for the day.

Thanks Steve. The 71 soddy feels better to me than the 21.

I agree, 21 is a bit big.

 

[Rufus1949]

I agree, 21 is a bit big.

Yes, not as pocket friendly.

Isn't the 21 the same closed length as the full size Case Sodbuster?
No one I've seen on here claims the full size Sod Buster isn't pocket friendly.

I prefer the full size over the Junior .... Does that make me "weird" and/or "strange", too?

No it does not....just personal preferences, which abound on this thread.

Got some fresh air today at lunch and had these 2 in my pocket during a beach stroll. Welllll… Not just these two!

I carry a 21 a lot, but I wear cargo pants a lot and it goes in the cargo pocket.

Very cool patina on your Boker Pat.

Thank you Todd, I almost forgot how cool these little copper barlows are.

A Barlow for me today as well. View attachment 2505855

I love those Case barlows.

A foggy start to the day here in the City by the Bay! My beautiful bride and Louie made a cameo in today’s pic. In the meantime keeping me company the usual lamb and day #3 barlow. Have a great day folks! View attachment 2505815View attachment 2505816

What breed is Louie? He looks like an Aussie from the distance.

Beautiful Boker (and lamb of course).

His name was Dan.
Hackers swiped his password, and now bots have taken over his account.

Nice one! In great shape.
Does it say 27 on the pile side of the blade tang?

Isn't the 21 the same closed length as the full size Case Sodbuster?

You might be weird, but knives aint got nothin to do with it.
I told Mom ‘n Dad “Heredity or environment. Either way, it’s your fault”.

When I bought my 71, I was shocked how small it was. Then later, there were still a few unsold 21s in orange delrin at dealers, so I got one of those. Just like the Case Sodbusters, I like the big ones better in my hand, the little ones better in my pocket.

Good thing I can have one of each.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but those skinny jeans are so 2014... just ditch them already.

Once y'all get back to wearing regular pants, you'll find there's plenty of pocket room for a #21 -- and more!

Yep. Sodbusters, Granddaddy Barlows, No. 10 Opinels, Folding Hunters, Hawkbills, Wenger Rangers…
