not much yet. Just open bags with coffee and snacks with my new Lil Persian.
But day is only starting.
Later in the day.
Used Caly3 to slice tomatoes for lunch, Persian to cut some rope and open mail, when I got home.

Used my Santoku earlier to mince up a bunch of parsley and chop up some celery. Celery then got blanched and both got bagged and put in the freezer. Opening the mail now with a mammoth tooth Kiwi.

Used my Leafstorm to take the protective wrapper off a bottle of Afrin nasal spray.

Now my nose isn't dripping everywhere.

Thanks Spyderco!

Stretch FRN ZDP cut up a large box for a freezer into small pieces to fit in my recycleable container. The factory edge is still cutting nicely after a week of relatively easy work up until all of this cardboard had to be broke down. I'm really liking the ergos on the FRN Stretch, as this extended session just validated my impression that the thicker FRN scales beat even the wonderful Stretch CF for comfort and grippyness, and in a more extended cutting session you really appreciate hoe good of a job Spyderco did with their FRN Stretch mold.
