Here’s an experienced #electionofficer tip. My best friend is into knives and a few years ago he gave me this as a Christmas present. It’s #Benchmade. Really nice. Super light.

I bring it to the #elections because you never have enough cutters. We cut plastic seals, plastic overwraps, taped boxes, etc. The county provides scissors and snips. But you inevitably have contention between teams who all need them at the same time. I just bring my knife and it’s super easy. It’s sharp. So it makes light work of these tamper resistant zip ties.

Bringing your own knife or snips, especially when you’re the chief, simplifies some things.

Tailor Talk-
All sleeves should come like this.
Sleeves can be shortened or Lengthen.
Then functional Button Holes can be added by hand or machine or just the buttons. It just makes sense.

I lost my pocketknife a couple of days ago and I can't figure out what happened to the knife. I don't really go out often. It is a Benchmade knife, one of those with a clip on the side. I had the knife for years, so it was building sentimental value, also Benchmade's aren't cheap. Of course, I didn't notice the loss until I reached for it to do something and nothing was there, just my pocket. Hmmm ... I started to say air just to make it rhyme. Anyway, I already ordered a replacement. Benchmade's have a lifetime guarantee, but that doesn't help if you lose the darn thing. Now I might come across it - c'est la vie.

I've recently tried some higher end #PocketKnife brands like #SpartanBlades and #ChrisReeve and they have been disappointing out of the box. Really poor quality management on their opening mechanisms compared to products half the price from #Kizer, #Kansept, and #Benchmade

I was today years old when I found out that the founder of the #Benchmade Knife Company was a #Filipino American. Les de Asis (1957-2020) was a Filipino and Portuguese American entrepreneur from Los Angeles who popularized the Filipino #balisong knife, which originated in Batangas, in the US. His company is now regarded as one of the top knife manufacturers in the world.

I am proud to own 3 Benchmade knives: a 190 Drop Point Hunter and matching 192 Bird & Trout, and a 100RR River & Rescue.

@ittavern Yeah for sure. Best thing hands down is my #Benchmade mini-bugout, imo an almost perfect urban #edc knife. I carry a quality tool card in my slim wallet, and some picks from Grim Workshop in dogtag and clip-on format. Phone, of course.

Bit of cord (5') on a lame "survival keychain" if I'm carrying car keys, with a flint woven in, and more as heavy-duty cord bootlaces.

I often carry a notebook with a pocket in the back, so I keep a usb-c cable there. That's it for my urban daily.
