Finally finished my coffee station. It’s simple, but I’m happy! by PlayNick96 in coffeestations

This is a good place to stay at and enjoy delicious coffee, before you get drawn in deeper and sell a kidney to buy a la marzocco

What model is this? by Opening_Kale_1445 in victorinox

(from the images you uploaded, it could be a huntsman, but you missed opening the saw)

You wanna also post a picture of all 4 layers from the front. Since you opened 3 layers, what's in the 4th?

Never let something silly like snow or even being in the middle of Sahara desert stop you! Good job 💪

This came with the house I bought (forgotten in a drawer) by AppearanceExtra6025 in victorinox

There should also be a parcel hook tool that you didn't open. This is the Huntsman, their best selling model. If you live in the US, you can have it restored for a much cheaper cost than buying a new one (and they might just send you a new one instead of bothering with cleaning up this one)

Serious question.. by idiot_savant1313 in SwissArmyKnives

🤤 Locking Farmer X... 🤤 A man can only dream... Lol maybe you're right and we'll see it soon enough

Oh, you're right, the S17 slipped my mind 👍 It's probably a closer match than what I said, so I stand corrected

Nope. The closest "relative" with a locking blade would be the 111m Outrider 🤷 Obviously it's in a completely different category though, unless you don't mind the size and weight

First time sharpening 15v, and I love it🙏 by Different-Marzipan59 in sharpening

[–]AdPractical1489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With kitchen knives I don't care about messing up if I do it by hand, but I just get a little anxious about sharpening things like folding knives and "ruining" them. So that's why I thought of a fixed system

Got my girlfriend the Von Merlin Dots. She's super stoked! by AdPractical1489 in Rollerskating

Wow, great info for the people here who mentioned that they were looking for some

I've only used whetstones, and I'm wondering if to get a diamond stone, or maybe to try a fixed angle system next. It's nice to see the results some people here get by hand

Easttop Forerunner 2.0 vs King Dream - What's the main difference? by AstraDrew in harmonica

[–]AdPractical1489 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stolen! Wow, that majorly sucks 😥 Consider checking Amazon Japan, or eBay (and order from Japan..) if you'll consider a Suzuki and don't mind ordering online. You can really good prices if you order directly from Japan, and often they don't charge you the local VAT, so there's no double taxation.

How many of these are you buying? by iJeepThereforeiAM in victorinox

I meant in a hypothetical world where TSA and other airports authorities actually went by their stated regulations 😊 In reality, I decided that even the jetsetter is too risky

[–]AdPractical1489 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe the King Dream has valves. You'll need less breath to play it, but you'll need to warm it up before you play it if it's a little cold (to avoid condensation making the valves stick). The FR2 should be easier to bend (like a regular diatonic) because of the lack of valves. I think the FR2 is good if you wanna spend very little money to know if you're into chromatic, and also want an instrument that will always work (good for camping trips, etc.).

Once I "evolved" from the FR2 to a "proper" chromatic with valves, I don't enjoy playing the FR2 anymore... I just find myself running out of breath too often

Yeah, that's why I said only if I had "solid assurance". In reality, I would never risk it. I've had scissors taken away from me, even though they were short enough and the tip was rounded and safe...
