A talk with my dad about taping knives made me change my mind

He was helping me clean up after a job in Portland, and he picked up my 6-inch knife. He said, 'You know, you can do 90% of a finish with just this and a 12-inch, all the other sizes are just for show.' I've always had a full set from 3 to 14 inches. But last Thursday, I tried it his way on a small repair, and the work went faster and looked just as good. Has anyone else cut down their knife set and been happy with it?

Ever notice how we collect way more tools than we actually need? Your story about the knives totally reminds me of that. It's like we think having every option will make us better, but really it just slows us down.

Having the right tool for the job can actually speed things up, don't you think?
