Jester. Opening 20 bags of USB cables, and using the tip to flip dip switches on a circuit board and remove a SIM card from a recessed slot.

Always cool to see small knives get used for real tasks, especially a Jester .
No pics, but my ARK was passed around to open gifts during the gift exchange at work, opened a box of soda during a Christmas party, and opened a box and packaging containing my new helmet light.
Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?
Thanks, it's a great little knife. I'm an advocate for it returning to the standard line up. The tip and finger groove on the spine make it useful for a number of things you might not expect. Im always one to say, don't use your knife as a prybar or a screw driver, but in the case of the SIM card today, my prybar was too big for the slot. Also you need a fine point for the dip switches. Some of my coworkers use a push pin, I prefer one of my little Spydercos (I use the tip of the blade spine).PeaceInOurTime wrote: ↑Thu Dec 22, 2022 8:17 pmAlways cool to see small knives get used for real tasks, especially a Jester .

Any place that lets you pass around an ARK sounds alright to me!

With my 15v Manix, I cut open the plastic seal they put on plastic ketchup bottles for some reason.
rex121 is the king of steel, but nature’s teeth have been cutting for hundreds of millions of years and counting :cool:

K12P sliced about a kilo of mixed alliums for French onion soup. Minced the garlic with it, as well. Delicious!
Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?
Street Beat batoned some wood, sparked a ferro rod, carved a roasting stick, sliced sausages etc.
Dragonfly got a work out making wood shavings.
Manix ended up staying in my pack and not getting used.

Spyderchef, for cutting wrapping paper better than scissors.
Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?
trimmed a ball chain necklace down to bracelet size to help my kid with her crafts.
Manix took two small dents in the apex in the process, which surprised me. It'll sharpen out when I get around to reprofiling the PE side.

Removed a loose thread
Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?
My son's MP3 player wasn't charging. Seems that internals got pushed up from the bottom and the plug wasn't reaching in far enough to click in and charge. Trimmed off some of plastic, or whatever that is, to make the plug longer.
Voila!
He'll be a happy camper in the morning.

I used my k390 urban to cut plastic sheeting to cover the walls and floors so we could scrape the asbestos-free popcorn ceilings. My husband and I are renovating our 1960's home a little bit while we still are on maternity/paternity leave. The work is never done on an older home :P
