Old People will Complain about Anything

So Crumby espies this Victorinox Compact sak on EBAY.  It's a buy it now deal for a low price.  So Crumby figures it's fairly beat up.  And Crumby wants a beat up one to take apart.  Crumby's reasoning is reinforced by the pictures provided by the vendor which appear to show discolorations on various tool surfaces.

Then the Compact arrives in the mail practically instantaneously.  Crumby inspects it, only to discover it is just about brand new.  The discolorations were oil, possibly applied by the vendor and not wiped off before the picture taking session.

Like here that knife is being photographed by Crumby with Crumby's favorite exercise pants providing the background.  Like you might think those white spots are imperfections on the scales.  They are not.  Most likely they are dandruff.



Now Crumby is stuck with a practically brand new knife, parsimoniously acquired,  that he can't take apart without feeling super guilty.  See.  Old people will complain about anything.

Actually, that Compact Combo Tool, the hybrid bottle can opener pictured opposite the blade, looks to be lame in the can opener department.  Why the business end isn't even sharp.  How is that gonna work?  Bitch, bitch, bitch.
