The clicking bothered my wife, too. I had to make a choice. I'm going to miss her.

I resolve to finish my house this year. I started it 3 years ago and have yet to finish the door and window trim and the baseboards. In honesty, I should say that the shop was the first area to be completed. I also resolve to work less so I can have time to finish my house and enjoy my shop.

I've been carrying a grey Calypso for a couple of weeks now and I agree its a great little EDC. I was just thinking about how many times its been out of my pocket today. First, I used it to open a dog food bag. Then to open the package for the new towel bar I installed, the package of replacement ...

I'm a construction inspector and I've carried a Rescue of one type or another for many years. I had one of my oldest (remember the one-piece molded clip?) stolen off the dash of my pickup. A few months ago I lost one down a sewer manhole and made the agonizing decision not to "fish" for it.

Good god, men. Use 'em. Scratches add character.

Thanks. I've got one on it's way.

Who has a good price on para-millies? I think I just have to get one of those. I checked New Graham but they are sold out of the PE's.

Glad to hear the cat is safe. I carry a rescue too and I can attest to its use in cutting drywall. I've used mine a couple of times in a pinch, although not highly recommended for that purpose. Great knives. Thanks for sharing the story.

I live by myself. I do what I want, when I want.

I carry a rescue daily and I don't think a small hole or two would do any harm as you want to do. Forget the hand drill though. That could be dangerous unless the knife is held tightly with a vise. If you know someone with a drill press see if you can use it. A drill press will allow you to hold it ...

I use a product in my machine shop called Super Lube. It comes in a 1/4 oz. pen-type applicator. According to the package it contains PTFE, which bonds to the surface of the metal and it is non-toxic and waterproof. In addition to my knives I use it on tools like my radial drill, milling machine and ...

I've been threatened a couple of times by dogs and I've pulled it out for protection. Never had to make contact, though.

When I'm forced to work in the office (which I hate) I used to carry my trusty Toad. It's a little more people friendly but still very useful. One day I was working with one of the women from the front office to get a project out. I reached into my pocket and pulled out my Toad to open a box. She ...

Daily. Mine is used a lot from pulling staples to opening sample bags, and oh... don't forget lunch. Sometimes I cut things I shouldn't. I touch it up almost every night using a white 204.

Not a lot of free time. I work away from home 3-4 days a week, but when I'm home I spend most of my time in my shop. I've been building and equipping a complete machine and mechanic shop for about five years. I'm just about finished but I just need a few more tools. I'm working on restoring a 1935 ...

Kaizer, the rescue jr. is my blade of choice for 10 or 12 working hours of every working day. I've carried one for years and I use it several times every day. Most people don't like the sheeps foot blade but I do. Welcome to the Rescue Jr. fan club.

Bought a SE 440V at the old factory outlet store in Golden many, many years ago at a father's day blowout sale. It's still my favorite "walking the dog in the woods knife". I carry my 9mm Glock, extra clip, ARC flashlight and Military in my hip pack. Everything else is fluff.

ARC AAA's in my pocket (usually jacket) and on my nightstand, CMG Ultra with a lithium battery in the cupholder in my truck (for long storage life and cold) and Super Sabrelights in the glovebox and on the shelf by the front door of my house.

I travel extensively by air. These days you really have to be careful not to draw attention to yourself with knives in your luggage. Serrated knives especially. I always pack mine in my shave kit with my ARC flashlight rather than loose in a bag, in case the bag is searched. Smaller knives draw less ...
