Re: What did you use your Spyderco for last?
I cut a piece of heavy plastic landscape edging with my Pac 2 today. It didn’t even wince!

I used my Caribbean to trim a few thorny vines on my berry bushes.
Just one more knife...

Sunflower seed package for garden. Opened a letter and broke down a box as well before that today. K390 Endella which continues to impress, and I continue to carry it.

Cut some strawberries, opened a few bags of grass clippings, cut off the bottom of a jug to make a funnel, opened a jug of motor oil, and cut duct tape and packaging tape in the process of helping a friend break into their house (and the subsequent minor repair) after locking their keys inside.

My PM2 helped me cut open 12 arborvitae planters and 20 bags of top soil today.

Today I used my Native5 to open the packaging my latest Spyderco came in. Lol! (Shaman 15V, oh yeah!) I did, however, use my Manix2 to cut open a bunch of bags of mulch a couple days ago. Definitely came in handy for that.

The Endura PE K390 was used to make a new drive belt for a lathe today. The material is a rubberized canvas. It's 2" wide and about 3/16" thick. I made a total of three cuts with some scrap particle board backing it up. The knife started off very sharp and ended up rather dull. It was an unusual task, and I don't suspect any other steel would have fared better. It was a fun experiment, and it was a necessary experiment. When I make another belt, maybe I'll try out a serrated edge.

Try it with your SE K390 next time @RustyIron. I would be interested to see how that one handles it.

Made raised beds, sliced open 60+ bags of soil and cow manure, delimbed a bunch of bamboo and cane.
Three days later, my microconvexed Spy27 Native can still slice paper.
