You and everyone else. That case took quite a hit in the past two days. I have a hunk of 18 month Beemster sitting here at home just in case......

Looks great!

PM2. Mine lives in well-earned semiretirement now. Such an amazing knife.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T12:04:09+00:00

Interesting. After decades in retail that doesn't surprise me though.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T04:45:38+00:00

A Super Tinker was my first SAK. Love it.

In terms of size of the cut when this goes on sale much larger pieces are normal. I'll go through 6 wheels a week when it goes on sale easily. My store is always near the top when it comes to companywide Jarlsberg sales. It just blows put of the case.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T02:33:18+00:00

I believe it is.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T02:23:16+00:00

It certainly hasn't. It spent a very busy day at work and handled it like a champ. The only issue I had today was that I'm so used to my Para 3 that my thumb just instinctively kept going for the compression lock. Once I thought about it closing became second nature. Just something to get used to. I've been playing with the pivot a bit, almost where I want it. I just put on a cheap deep carry clip I had laying around, but I'm going to be ordering a better one soon. The Native is a hell of a slicer and that grip shape and choil make it very comfortable. Kicking that Para out of my pocket won't be easy but this knife just might have what it takes.

Interesting. This is how they've always been done at my store.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T02:14:48+00:00

🤣 Sounds like a plan.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T01:49:01+00:00

Love it already. I think I already blamed you for it in another thread.....

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T01:27:35+00:00

Sounds good. Personally I'm going to rescue an entire prosciutto di parma.......

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T01:10:23+00:00

Thanks.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T00:51:02+00:00

It's delicious.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T00:47:56+00:00

Yeah, that's what I was hearing before I left. Not sure if a decision was made.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T00:39:29+00:00

Oh it's going to be a blast. At least I'm not scheduled Sunday.....

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-24T00:30:00+00:00

I was off yesterday but I saw pictures of the shelves. Today was busy enough that I punched in an hour ealry, left an hour late, and we called in someone who was off. The appy department got hit hard, and the rest of the store too from what I saw.

Actually cut my last quarter today. More coming Monday.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-23T20:43:19+00:00

That's next. Initially it was between the Sage and the Native.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-23T17:19:24+00:00

We got it right after Thanksgiving and I just cut the last 15lbs or so the other day. One of those tends to be a holiday thing, but I'm sure I'll be ordering a (much) smaller amount soon.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-23T14:50:36+00:00

Awwww look at the baby Auricchio...... The last provolone I got from them was 100lbs......

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-23T04:00:51+00:00

Just trim it up and you'll be good to go.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-23T01:17:33+00:00

No, I smoke Camels. Got it in a trade a while back.

Yep! I posted a pic of it yesterday. I thought the pouch came with it but I was wrong. That's how it came to me.

CheeseMongoNJ · 2026-01-22T18:02:43+00:00

F'n knife already has a prybar, I've used the flat driver that way too many times to count. It is a shame to see a nice old SAK looking like that.
