So what did you cut with spyderco today?

tradja · #41

Past 24hrs:

Yesterday afternoon, I used my Kraton Stretch to test how well a plastic laminate adhered to an ID card we're developing. Last night, I used the Kraton Stretch to open my new LH Millie. :spyder: Then I used the Millie to open an orange Ladybug and a Bark River Mini Northstar. :D

This morning, I used the orange Ladybug to split a bagel. Today at lunch when I get to the PO, I will again use the kraton Stretch to open my new CF/ZDP Stretch II!

Good thread!

Today I cut open some ground beef open with my Tenacious to make half of it into sloppy joes, the other half I'm saving for some spaghetti.

Then I cut open a package of wipes for in my bathroom.

I put the spyderhawk to use again today cutting about 50ft of irrigation tubing down to about 2ft sections. The perfect knife for that job.

Wrapping paper with a Dragonfly. More fun that scissors.

Opened the mail and cut pages out of a coloring book with a Kiwi and sliced a lemon wedge (no more limes?:eek :) for my cocktail

Do you say "to peel" or "to skin" an orange? Anyway, I removed the tough and bitter part from the sweet and juicy part with a Centofante 4. :p

i used my centofante to open up a can of paint :eek: with the knife closed i used the steel above the hole to work the lid off. then i put the point on the inside lip and gave it a little slap with the palm of hand to make a bunch of holes for the paint to drip back into the can. the tip is still fine too :)

your first post in my thread...i am honored. i would say welcome but you have been here for a while already. so was it the serrated or plain edge or combo tenacious?

graham_s · #51

Plain edge.
I don't really like serrations.
That said, my first Spydie was serrated (Delica, bought in 91, I think), liked it so much I bought another when I lost it (then found it two weeks later)
I've got a PE Atlantic Salt, and I'm looking at getting a Bob T Slippit.

I opened an envelope, set the knife in my lap and read the contents. Leaned forward, and it cut a hole in my new blue jeans. (Why again do I have to make these so sharp)

Has your voice got any higher since, Hector? :D :D

Got my tasman salt yesterday, been needing (wanting) it lately for the hawkbill to try it out. Tied a lanyard and took it to work...

Started the day with a few irrigation trickle blow outs, fixed. Had to spray some fungicides for a few hours - opened a few bags of chemical to mix up. Fixed sprayer lines (replaced 2). Sorted out some prelim bird netting repairs ready for the season (with nylon braid and bailing twine), and dropped some fruit (diseased) on the ground. Pretty average day.

Inclusive of the above, scored 2 spyder bites, but both superficial. That hawk bill takes some getting use to and that tip is nasty, but will (it is) become my EDC at work for the next couple of months (till late April at least when I swap it for the Pacific). On the upside, it performed like a trooper, work mates were in awe, and it doesn't rust with the chemicals/water it's constantly exposed to.

I cut up about 25 cardboard boxes with my SE Mariner. Like a hot knife slicing butter. :)

Jazz · #57

All with a new Hawkbill Ladybug, I peeled a couple of oranges, opened a new toothbrush clampack, and incorporated it in wrapping my wife's presents. Very handy little knife - and sharp - I'm glad I was able to score a couple. :)

- best wishes, Jazz.
