Spyderco's at work

[Seanski]

I thought I would post a few pic's of the Pacific at work at one section of the office. I told the gals to give 'er a good workout and they did. Together we put it through it's paces and it performed admirably. I did collect it before leaving and gave it a thorough hose-down, snaped it shut and left for home. I like the Pacific Salt.

Great knife and photos. Now I'm hungry! :D

[Seanski]

thanks doc, btw do you know how I can get the photo's to pop up automatically instead of the links?

thanks.

[MANIXWORLD]

Im using my plainedge SAlt1 in the kitchen so much,that i think the knife is hardly ever dry..but then again the SAlt's are amphibious..aquatic..you get?

[Seanski]

They are beaut's thats for sure. Something to be said for worry free use and that's what you get with the Salt series. I like the full size Pacific as it gives me enough blade and is light enough that I forget I'm wearing which means that it will actually see some use and carry.

Pac-Salt. Eat Fresh!:p

Very cool! I've been meaning to get a Yellow SE tasman for going through vacuum packed chicken. seems like it would do the job quickly then a toss in the washer and back in my pocket. I also work in a kitchen as a prep cook :D

[David Lowry]

Hi, may I get a Subway club on wheat please with lettuce, tomato, onion, green pepper, black olive and some provolone?

Thanks.

now i just gotta start buying uncut loaves of bread so the spydie serrated edges can sink their teeth into.

off i go to order a yellow sharpie. :p

[Seanski]

aebfroman,
thanks for the pic info.

In da Kitchen,

If I didn't make use of my folders in the kitchen I would hardly make use of them at all. It's good bonding time, try it you'll be glad you did. :)

I use a PE Tasman for just that. I keep it on a magnet board above my prep station at home. I use it for opening pesky packaging and food that needs ripped.

Works quite well.

[AfriadOfSpyders]

I bought a SE yellow Tasman for worry free work as well. It's my total beater knife, because I baby my pm2. Rips through zip ties and any packing my work can throw at it.

[252chevyboyz]

I decided to make a beef roast with red potatoes, celery, onions, baby carrots, and a 1 1/2 lb beef roast. The ole' Persistence put in all the work for the prep and there a few pics below. I usually use my J. A. Henckels 3" pairing knife and 5 1/2" chef knife. I must say I did love using the spydie in the kitchen and I am considering getting a Pacific Salt and dedicate it to the kitchen but I'm not sure. Anyway hope y'all enjoy

I'm kinda digging using a folder in the kitchen. Many chefs would probably look down upon it but it might be something that stays with me in the kitchen. Anyone else dig folders in the kitchen?

:spyder: I would like a sandwitch made by H1 :confused: . . . . Can you deliver in Greece to PM you my address :confused: :eek: . . . . Very nice photos keep working those H1 edges :) . . . . :spyder:

[252chevyboyz]

Haha we might have to do a little freeze drying on that sammich with the way customs are these days. Also glad to hear someone else likes to use their Spydie in the kitchen other than me. It is something I will defiantly continue to do :)

The biggest issue you'll get is whether it's AIB complaint for food industry use or not. If you're working in a restaurant or something using your EDC folder, even if you've washed it and even if you're properly sanitized it, AIB would probably have a cow if they caught you using it. In some areas OSHA might even have something to say about it.

Personally though, i'm real tempted to get a Pacific Salt and have it reground to a thin FFG for kitchen use, i just haven't done it yet.

[252chevyboyz]

O I don't use any folder or edc knife when working with public food. I will only use it if I am cooking food for me and my family. I will first touch up the blade, then wash it with soap and hot water, then I will dip the blade in boiling water to sanitize. If I'm working with food for the public I strictly use dedicated kitchen knives. These pics were taken at my home and that is where most of my pics will come from

[JAfromMN]

My ZDP189 Endura has came to work with me many times. http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc421/JAfromMn/IMG-20111224-01022.jpg

:spyder: I always use my SPIDIE folders in the kitchen ;) . . . . Is there anybody who doesn't :confused: . . . . I have my SPIDIES scary sharp so it is so easy cutting food :eek: . . . . Nowadays I use my ENDURA VG10 FFG Gray and my PARA2 CTS-20CP Gray, great cutters :D . . . . My H1 folders are resting for now :D . . . . :spyder:

[toomzz]

....brought my sprint CF S90V to the office today....

[252chevyboyz]

@JA: Geologist maybe?

@toomzz: Post up some pics if u snag any

Also I am stuck between Para2 or a Pacific Salt (straight edge) for the kitchen. One of these will be my next knife purchase

[JAfromMN]

@JA: Geologist maybe?



Nope.
I'm a Jack of all trades /Janitor at a hotel.

I was testing the water in the pool iN that pic. I use my endura to open all the pills I use.

http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc421/JAfromMn/IMG-20111111-00747.jpg My Endura has to have cut down a few thousand boxes by now ;D

[252chevyboyz]

I work in a family landscaping business/jack of all trades (like my father)/hiker haha. I can see if the knife has seen as much use as the clip has then she has put in her work. I just saw that Water sample bottle and something that looked like chemicals in a tube and a analysis sheet in the background. That's where I came up with geologist

[JAfromMN]

I wish I was a geologist.

I bet the pays a lot better :)

The only time I really like a combo edge;

@JA: sometimes its not all about the money. Gotta like who you work with and who you work for. Sometimes if your cool with all the staff at one place it makes the job easier and that much more worth it.

Also those serrated blades will tear boxes all to pieces.

Just the Persistence cutting 20 bales of pinestraw at work. Got 30 more bales to shake out Thursday.

I use to work a building supply store here in town and those bands use be hard on edge. I had a Buck Vantage "Rush" at that time. I then left it in the backseat of a friends car and it was never to be seen again. It was kind of a blessing though cause then I moved to Spyderco. I love my Persistence. By the way the building supply store was called "Builder's Discount Center" or BDC for short.

Hows the edge holding up with those bands?
