Recently in my EMT-B certification, we have been learning correct lifting and moving of patients and equipment. I am catching on pretty well, but I've noticed I have some minor soreness on the anterior side of my tibia, slightly below my knee cap. I am flat-footed, which I know is a common...
Here is my new blade! I just got it in the mail earlier today. It's the Spyderco Ambitious. It's a sweet little knife! Super sturdy frame and locking mechanism, and it's the perfect length (2.25") for everyday carry. Crazy sharp as well. I honestly think I'm sold on Spyderco now!
