This little Victorinox Classic SD isn't pretty, but it lives in my paracord tools box. It got put to work when I made some knife lanyards yesterday. Below are the lanyards I made, one "modeled" by my good ol' Camillus 27.

Good to see knives actually being put to use, not just filling up our shelves and displays.
Cut that fuel line and make them funnels, boys! ::tu::
No picture but it's not hard to imagine cutting the stem of a Bell pepper with a black handled, Schrade Walden 182. 1st pepper of the season, used by Miss Joy for seasoning our pasta sauce for our noon meal today. :)

Edit: did have a picture of the knife a couple days ago next to a pepper plant.

Schrade Walden 182 horticultural knife.  It had several names and a different pattern number in earlier times.

The Sod Buster is more than up to that task! Is yours a 3137 or a 3138?
