That made me smile as it’s something mainland Europeans do. People in the UK would have cut the sausage and bread before going out.
Back in 2018, when international travel was normal, I was staying with my sister down near Nimes. On one day I was playing SOTA and my first summit was F/CR-059 Sommet du Col Pointu. A little light SOTAing in France My brother-in-law had asked me to call at a specific Boulangerie on the way as it was renowned for its products. I used my best schoolboy French to buy the bread etc. and after that the exceptionally pretty lady in the shop congratulated me on being English but speaking French, she did say my accent needed work We cheated and had that conversation in English or I’d still be there trying to figure out what she was saying! My brother-in-law had provided me with some of his home made sausage and some cheese and a knife sharp enough to skin a crocodile! I’d parked up at col de l’Homme Mort and climbed up to the AZ, activated and descended back to the car. I sat in the shade cutting bread, cheese and sausage in the 28C heat (September) and thinking about the 8C temps back in Scotland. I felt quite smug and properly European. Well not quite, I didn’t have any wine. Driving back to front cars is easy enough as long as you don’t push the situation by drinking or driving in the rush hour around cities like Nimes or Avignon or driving in fog.
I’ve used knife and scissors on the Swiss Army knife plenty of times. The pliers on the Leatherman have been use for tightening up connectors that stretched and become loose. But I have never used them on food that I can recall.
