Let's leave out dinner table knives.
Looking back all the way to yesterday, I carried a KaBar pocketknife: the old heavy "boy scout" type, with one cutting blade, a can opener, a bottle opener, and an awl.
I don't think I *used* it, though. That honor has to go to today's pocketknife: a small Uncle Henry/Scrade pocketknife with one cutting blade and one fingernail file.
I used it to open a box at the post office.
I don't actually know the official names for either of these knives.
What was the first knife you used this year? I'm curious to see how many people used a regular pocketknife first.
BTW, Happy New Year everyone! And thank you Bladeforums.
