@@JE_AB_CA yes, and just like carrying only a fixed blade for a month, it would be fun, and a challenge. What you have done is found the right tool for the job. When I had to cut nylon straps or bands all day from pallets of goods I used a box cutter. I changed blades as needed. We didn't use a knife for that. We also carried the Leatherman PST in those days and that was used as pliers to pull the staples, nails, etc.
@jameshaulenbeek593126 күн бұрын
@JE_AB_CA the same is true for pretty much every multitool. A proper screwdriver can't be beat by a multitool. A proper set of pliers can't be beat by a multitool. A proper knife can't be beat a multitool. They're good in a pinch if you can't do better, but if you can, you should.

Because he can. Seriously - as a normal person you can never max out a Golf GTI on a public road - and yet people are paying $X00,000 for sportscars that they will also never max out on a public road.

I got lucky, but i got 2 dlc mini click big idea pens for 50 a piece on Kickstart year's ago. My justification is that they are heirloom pens that I'll use and will have the rest of my life. Does someone need to spend 110 on a single pen, maybe maybe not, but does someone need to spend 100 200 300+ on a pair of sneakers? We all like what we like and chose to value all sort of material things differently. Just some of those things will last a lifetime being used daily. While some things can only be used for a short time and you'll have to buy that thing all over again.
