Another long day in the yard. Heat index was 109 today. Serrations are great for cutting small branches. Helped me break them down into 4' bundles to please my delicate trash company.

May your feet be warm and dry and your throat warm with whiskey. A knife in hand or in the sock band.

The smallest I have is a Dragonfly. I should try a Manbug someday.

Chinook in the pocket for now.

Such a great little knife that I'd be willing to bet, if we were honest with ourselves, could handle MOST tasks you'd encounter on a daily basis.

So will they!

Fair play, they sure will!

To Salty and mikey and all those who are manbugless: I encourage it for all. My old man was in shipping and receiving for a long time, and he'd carry a Buck 425 "MiniBuck" in his watch pocket, and throw it away when it became too adhesive damaged and chipped out and useless, and just order another one right out of the McMaster catalogue. It worked for him, and the company was footing the bill for each new 425, but I see the Manbugs as the closest thing I've used that reminds me of his most used knife. They're mighty handy.

Truer words! Ain't no bigger than the aforementioned 425 and my pappy sure didn't have any complaints! :squinting-tongue

I completely agree! My manbug wharnie is my go to shorts or 5th pocket knife. It is the perfect size to be useful and unintimidating.

Gotta say I'm actually surprised Mikey doesn't have one already. Feel like he has 300 knives, rarely see a duplicate!! Manbug is a must for lounging around the house!

Haha. I avoid really small knives as I have trouble opening them one-handed. There seems like too little handle to securely hold on to while opening.

I'll probably wind up with a Manbug in due time :smlling-eyes

Civilan the last couple days.

I want to add I did some tree removal and it was the only knife I had with. I was very impressed by the cuts it could make though tough brush.

It also got me thinking im going to replace my waved matriarch with a standard. After some trials I've found I prefer that blade shape tip up.

also prefer my enduras tip down. Figure that out lol 😆😂🤣
