This is another picture in a long line of them in the traditional forum that make me think, "oh... I guess there are people out there who are like me". Sure... you could put lettuce and tomato on there, and yeah, maybe you could use the kitchen knives you keep sharp... but that's what other people would do.

Cheers, friend.

I have no idea what that cool little sheetmetal tool is, but I like it! Can you tell us more about it?

It's a Trim Trio by Bassett in a New England state (which state I don't remember; this one just says USA). My dad was very excited to find such cheap, sharp, strong knives, and this was maybe the mid-sixties, before screw-off bottle caps. We all carried them for years. I buy them at estate sales and antique malls, where they're still pretty cheap.
