–Drove to Carmel; minimal traffic. Picked up the Sea Otter (atrocious knife; spinning pivots, troublesome standoffs, terrible action, will sell immediately), the bit holder (heavy and works well, but the magnet is so strong it’s a joke: it attracts screws from 2″ away, and it’s really hard to get a bit out once it’s in. May try to reduce magnetism; not sure how. Picked up a gorgeous entropic MBK Pinscher with great action. Turns out on closer inspection it has really bad lock rock. Will return.
–Gassed up at a Chevron near the Holiday Inn (super expensive of course) and drove home without incident.
–Entered an Oz knife pre-sale lottery; 150 slots gone in seconds. Fuck bots!
