Waved Endura cut a rubber gasket for a hose coupling. Crazy, I know.

Easy things at work, but boy was it impressive. Manix 2 154CM still factory sharp. Way better cutter than your usual box cutter. We'll see after I have a go at sharpening it.
Not really all that slick ;)

Yesterday, I found an old tree limb just long and big enough to make a walking stick. I finally got to use my Temp to to do the majority of the bark removal. A bonus is that it is heavy enough to basically chop down small branch knots. I then used my new Para 2 to get rid of all the bark. Now I have a crude walking stick for tomorrow's hike. I always make myself a walking stick when on vaca in the mountains. When I get home, I will whittle it smooth and take the sandpaper to it and give a coat a lacquer and put in the corner with the other ones. So much fun.

I opened a package of baby wipes with my Meerkat sprint while holding my crying baby in my other arm. Here's where safe and easy one-handed opening and closing has real value! :-)

I used my Persistence to break down a box or two. It is a great slicer and really easy to sharpen.

I used my carbon fiber Michael Walker to open my brand new Carbon Fiber Manix 2 S90V! That was one happy moment.

I have also had to do this, on a few occasions actually. Weird, but true!

lol i cut my NY Strip steak with my Endura4 tonight right after i watched my P'Kal bight a 4.5" blood line down my friends arm.. sigh i told him it was sharp he but he thought he new better. and as he ever so slightly pulled the tip gently down his arm saying its not so sharp. Much to his amazement his arm started to bleed from the spot he started to the spot he stopped. i then had to administer first aid where to my surprise i found a lost but not forgotten Lady bug in my first aid pack =) then the steak was awesome..

I used a Perrin PPT to cut open a package containing a new Paramilitary 2, then I used the PM2 to cut a package containing a new 4sevens flashlight. It was a good day.

That does sound like a good day. :)

I learned not to catch a falling knife today, LOL. Just got my Tenacious a few days ago & I've been real careful while playing with it....until now.

I got lucky, though. I immediately let go when I felt the sting & it just barely drew blood.

Got to resist the urge to catch...

Today I used my carbon fiber Michael Walker (again) to open up another USPS Priority Mail package (again). This time it contained a Benchmade <don't shoot me> Model 42 Balisong. So, yea, it was another pretty good day. It does kinda suck though, I don't have any more packages coming for a few days :( I don't know what I am more addicted to, collecting knives, or getting new packages in the mail.

I agree, it definitely is a good combo. I just hate to pack the CF Manix 2, because of how much I gave for it and how hard they are to find. So I try to stick to this combo for my edc. It definitely does the job and looks **** good doing it!
