Re: Family friendly jokes

In honor of 486000: Two friends were riding along on a tandem bicycle when, suddenly, the one at the front slammed on the brakes, hopped off and began letting air out of the tyres. “Hey!” the one at the back said. “What are you doing that for?!” “My seat was too high. I wanted to lower it a bit,” th...

Remember, a person is not required to be able to read or be of even average intelligence to work for the TSA.

Re: TSA Found Out What Futility Is

They hire the dumbest people to work for TSA. Nobody above the IQ of 60 need apply.

Re: Anyone have a card with "fraud prevention services" get in the way of buying stuff?

I've had that happen a couple of times and always at the most inopportune time. I had to wait until the fraud prevention department opened and then get them to remove the block on my card. But by then I wasnt able to buy one of the things I needed. Once, this happened with a store I shop at all the ...

Re: Victorinox going bladeless

It solves problems for a lot of people, I guess, but it makes me wonder about the psychopaths that came up with such laws and their motivations, but I digress.

This is likely a good marketing scheme and other makers are sure to follow their lead.

Re: Dragonfly vs. Lil' Native

One does have to give thought to what might be needed versus what is necessary every day. It hardly ever rains here but... Well whaddya know, a fellow SW desert rat...though I'm mostly on the Calif side of the Colorado River, but sometimes east of it. I'll keep an eye out for a guy carrying a D'fly...

Re: Victorinox going bladeless

As far as I can tell, the Jetsetter is a Rambler without the knife layer, so it loses the file/flat head as well. It’s hard not to like the Rambler, in my opinion it’s the obvious choice over a Classic, but hardly gets anywhere near the same attention. But even with the knife blade in place, this i...

A Chaparral for the win! But, if you really want to, you could carry a Military 2.

Re: Victorinox going bladeless

I have a Jetsetter. Except for the scissors, it doesn't do much. I can't cut my food, or peel an apple. But, it is better than nothing and the scissors work well.

Re: 3 on a tree

In heavy, stop and go traffic, pushing in on a heavy clutch repeatedly will wear you out. It was fun when I was young, but nowadays, I want an automatic.

You both may be right. I see it as an indicator of the insanity in which we are forced to live. Here, knives are verboten.

Victorinox going bladeless

Woke is going to make them broke. Victorinox is caving and will start making their Swiss Army Knives without knife blades. They will still make current models with blades, they say. Here is one of the articles I read on the subject:

Re: Salt steels for pool/chlorinated water.?

That is actually a good question. My H1 never has issues (nor my watch, for that matter). I remember seeing a knife on another forum that had gotten chlorine on it and it looked bad.
