Welcome to the forums. As BAL stated, we support your love of guns (.45 especially), trucks (85 Chevy = SWEET), and Spydercos (Duh!). Is the Chevy a Scotsdale? Stepside or Fleet?

Today I used my Spyderco to open a package containing my new Manbug ZDP-189! :D

Deadheaded and pruned the garden with my S30V Paramilitary2. I'll probably fondle it through the final round of the US Open.

Sliced up some cuts of beef for burgers today.

I used my Spyderco Jester to open salad crackers with. I always have a hard time with those darn things. Everyone needs something like the Jester or Dragonfly on their key chain. I guarantee you will use that knife more than anything else you carry. Put it on one of the large size coil steel rings and you can put your little finger in the ring and use that as an extension of the knife for most anything in a pinch.

Its a 1985 K5 blazer with a 6.2L detroit diesel. Originally a military truck, came with a detroit locker too!

Sweet. I would say you need to post some pics on the appropriate thread. Maybe here!

Went to open a can of tuna fish, only to discover that my can opener has mysteriously vanished. So out came the trusty XHP Manix 2 and I just stabbed through the top and then sawed around the lid edge. Not how I would normally use my :spyder: , but I was hungry and it's late at night...

used my cpm m4 Millie to pick thorns out of bike tires. cut down a bunch of cardboard, cut a few dozen zip ties, cut some aged cheddar for lunch, and various other tape/paper cutting.

gotta love that needle tip for getting under zip ties.

I used my blacked out Para2 to open the package containing my pink Squeak!

...then I liked the Squeak so much I bought three more from the sale at BHQ... one for car, one for desk, and one for spare! :)

Used my black Salt 1 lightweight to open a bag of potato chips. Love how that H1 steel glides through everything! And I don't have to worry about the salt in the chips eating away at the blade :cool:

I'm so glad I bought this knife instead of the Delica - I much prefer the H1, no steel liners and 14mm deployment hole. Sometimes older designs are better!

Today I am EDC-ing my 2012 Starmate. Used it today to cut Danish Blue and I am about to peel a couple of apples....

xceptnl · #557

Today I used a loaner Yojimbo 2 that I am trying out to slice chicken breasts for an easier fit into the pan. I also sampled a few apples from my tree for desert and decided to try it out on some plum tree branches that have been drying for a few days. I am impressed so far and more so as a whittling knife than anything else yet. The hollow grind makes shallow cuts feel effortless and the thick spine gives great area for my thumb to press. I think I know which S90V exclusive I am going to order from KW.

Cut my 4 year old daughter's popped blister before the loose skin could pull out even more skin from her hand.

I carried my black Native today. I wish the tip would have been a bit more pointed to get under the top layer of the skin (the 2nd layer was already looking fine, just a bit moist but not red). Also wasn't able to push a hole into the remaining part of the bubble (which should have allowed for faster drying and better contact with the antiseptic). She was moving around since the first applicatiion of antiseptic liquid was stinging too much, I only got one try :-)

During that kind of her climbing adventures she got the injury. Must have been the heat and humidity today, normally she just gets callus and no blisters.
