Two is perfect! ... One to use and beat up and one to keep all nice and new as a "safe queen"

Hey Rick!
Might I suggest using an "Steel Thumbnail" that they use to pop the lids off the of GEC knives tubes? It's an accessory specifically made for folks with weak or troublesome thumbnails, that is manually applied to any existing blade nail-nick and pried open. Sold at A.G. Russell.com and various sizes and locations.
Good luck!

They work great!

I don’t think those are the right approach for me personally.

Carrying an extra tool to open a knife blade does not appeal to me at all. There are too many knives that I can open more easily and without pain . I like those types of knives too and I can go back to them if necessary.

I have actually been doing pretty good so far. As long as I don’t sit and play with the knives for any length of time, I am okay. It takes some of the fun out of enjoying my knives but the trade off is that I can enjoy my traditional knives again with a little restraint.

I tend to agree with you regarding fumbling around with one tool only to use on another tool, seems like too much work for a minor payoff to me. There are alternatives for sure.
Jus' thought I'd throw the idea out there in case!
