Just used my Kapara for scoring the g-10 liners on some scales I'm putting on a Mule. Double win!

Used my G10 Dragonfly to cut up foam core board and poster board for a little small project.
Oh, and later a Sage 2 to cut some twine to tie up some wayward branches on a tree.

Considering it cut the rope after the metal can I'd say pretty well. Been having it since 2015.
Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?
Just received my K390 Endela today and with nothing special to cut, played with some paper. But tonight, my wife asked me to cut some of her prescription pills for her. Usually I use one of two older thin kitchen utility knives that I keep sharp for that and a few other chores. One is a Gerber Miming with the stainless handles and the other is a very thin Vanadium Echo. But I was thinking that the edge on the Endela was very thin and very hard and very sharp, so I tried it. I was amazed. It cut the pills better than the others did by a huge margin, wasting less and chipping and crumbling barely at all - maybe only one with a little residue. The cuts were clean and precise, even on one pill that likes to crush and break apart.
I've got to wonder if anyone has ever listed that on here before. Who'd have ever thought??

Got stuff prepped for a roast with a Murray Carter Bunka Bocho in BD1N. I do really like this knife, have no regrets from adding this one to the kitchen arsenal.

I would really like to try one of these out, I had just upgraded 5 of my kitchen knives when the Murray Carter collabs came out...I may still have to pick up at least one of the knives out of the collections though, they seem really nice.
So it goes.

Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?
It was pricey, but I do like it a lot. It replaced a Shun that I got for a very good price a few years ago. The handle on the Spydie is very comfortable, and I rejoice that it's G10 instead of pakkawood every time I use it. Every kitchen knife I've ever used with a pakkawood handle reeked of formaldehyde, and I can't stand that.Airlsee wrote: ↑Thu Jun 03, 2021 6:53 amWandering_About wrote: ↑Wed Jun 02, 2021 11:46 pmGot stuff prepped for a roast with a Murray Carter Bunka Bocho in BD1N.

I'm not really a big kitchen knife junkie so I'm sure there are plenty of other options out there but this ticked the boxes that were important to me.

Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?
Bahaha! I know exactly what you mean, and I had no idea it was formaldehyde! I have 2 Japanese kitchen knives with "wooden" handles and they have the most odd chemical smell to them. I've had them for over a year and the smell is still there if you sniff the handle...I figured it was lacquer or something.Wandering_About wrote: ↑Thu Jun 03, 2021 9:26 amEvery kitchen knife I've ever used with a pakkawood handle reeked of formaldehyde, and I can't stand that.

Um...to open a box that contained a B'made and a Ka-bar. I'll see myself to the door.

Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?
Used my new K390 Endela to open and then cut the sides on the packing carton of my new Toro Super Recycler lawn mower. It's one of those space saver models that will fold up and stand up in your garage, so it rolled right out of the open box. I seem to remember a warning on the top of the box about using sharp knives to open it.
Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?
This is the sort of shenanigans I use my knives for the most these days, trimming brush so I can get to cars. Sometimes I wonder if an actual bushcraft knife would be better for me but I've had plain edge slip off some types of vines and branches and almost refuse to cut, and that's where serrations bite in and cut more aggressively.
I've really been thinking about finding a Spydersaw, but a knife is more versatile and I have a wood saw on my multitool, it's just a little small. A Jumpmaster 1 with wood saw teeth would be super cool.

This is accident recovery? A fantastic saw is the Bahco Laplander.
