Are you a Swiss Army Knife owner?

[MalteDK]

Hi
I love SAK's !
A blue aloy Classic is on my keyring every day, and the Farmer is a part of my outdoor equipment.
Together with a 4' homemade fixed blade knife and a Gränsfors Wildlife hatchet it makes a perfect combo going to the Scandinavian woods.
In the woods especially the Awl, the Can opener, the Saw and the back of the saw, used to throw sparks from a firesteel, is usefull
On one day trips i use a Rucksack for everything from cutting bread to starting a fire!

I have one, and I love it.
When I need a knife, I use the SAK's knife. When I need a corkscrew, I use the SAK's corkscrew. When I need a screwdriver, I use the SAK's screwdriver... there's a certain pattern forming there.
I sharpen it occasionally, for instance before a camping trip.

I have owned loads of SAK's over the years, currently I still have a forester and a spartan. I must admit to using leathermans a lot though as I have a PST, Juice XE6, Wave and a Surge.

Currently got a huntsman. Used to own the Swiss champ but sold that on as it was a bit bulky. Wouldn't mind the Outrider model though, comfier grip that the standard rounded models.

Yes I carry a SAK

The model is the one shown below

I aquired it when I was a countryside ranger, there was a demo of a swiss lawnmower at work by a company called "BUCHER" that specialised in heavy duty reciprocating mowers......

At the end of the demo we all got the above SAK and it has the word "BUCHER" inlaid into the handle. That was 15 years back and it's still used almost every day

what model is this...................

It looks very much like the Spartan, however this model doesn't appear to have the toothpick and the tweezers (not that it really matters).

I must be your evil twin from a parallel universe

It looks a bit like the Wenger Classic 07 (see http://www.wenger.ch/classic-07-1-007-009-000 )

Had several until fifteen years ago (had different ones since I was 8 or so), but I realised that I just didn't like them. I switched to one of those big ones, I think it was a Victorinox"Swiss tool", but for ten years that has been in my tool box in the house. I use it as a a set of pliers and wirecutters, but nothing else.
I now use a full tang homemade knife for camping and an Ohta friction folder for everything else. It's enough knife for most ordindary uses and it looks pretty ( the friction folder, that is. The other, well it looks homemade, lol).

Out of interest, any else use a leather man PST? Wifey gave me mine around 2003, i don't think it's left my belt since, might need a new pouch soon, best i learn leather stuff.

I'm getting nervous carrying my LM Charge TTi so I'm going to be buying a PS4 I reckon.....The coppers round here are just plain daft and have no common sense so I want something less risky to my livelihood and personal freedom. Stupid misinterpretation of the law.....

I love apples, if I did not cut slices off with my SAK they would break my NHS teeth.
