13. All I can call it is a shiv

I got an old table knife in a box of junk at an auction. The blade had been honed down to a thin blade, at the tip, almost looks like an icepick. That has been one of the handiest tools for me, ever since. I've used it as a pottery tool, on furniture refinishing, just anything where a traditonal tool wasn't going to help do the job. I keep it handy, one of the few things I can grab without a search
