Cut up some cardboard, and snipped a bunch of TyRaps with my 204P PM2...we were pretty busy though so sadly I didn't have time to take any pictures.

Well yesterday the Salt1 PE did some nice work on some nylon straps and the plastic wrap around a pallet just split with a light touch. Today the dragonfly cut open a cardboard box that just arrived with an Ontario knife Co short machete.

Really yesterday now, but in the morning I carefully measured and cut out pieces of cardboard with my brown Delica and a T-square and glued them together to form an exact sized mockup of an iPhone 6+ so my wife could see if it would fit her hands and pockets. The answer was yes :rolleyes:

In the afternoon I used my yellow Pacific Salt SE to cut the limbs off one of the small-leafed Privets that "intrude" all over this area. I was amazed that if you apply some tension by bending the limbs, it would slice 1" to 1 1/4" limbs 4/5 of the way through or more with one slice. The drought here could have something to do with it, but I'm beginning to see why people are so crazy about these SE knives. Also, being left handed may help, since the teeth are ground on the left side of the blade.

Can you tell me the exact size of the smaller iphone 6? Thanks.
- best wishes, Jazz.

Sorry, I've been away from my computer all day, and you've probably already found out elsewhere, but the small one is 138.1 x 67.0 x 6.9 mm and weighs 129 g :)

Yesterday evening, after work, I started making a shelter for cooking and eating to keep us dry for this weekends camping trip. A walk through the woods revealed a wild patch of bamboo. All I had on me were my EDC knives so........ the Captain handled the bamboo like a champ and now we have a tall, wide open, covered eating shelter!

No edge damage either, the VG-10 performed beautifully. It was late and I had no lighting so I left it dirty til I could capture a few this morning.
