Have been sorting out the pit of utter depravity that is my wardrobe.

(I never knew one person could amass so many pairs of cheap boots...)

And was examining a jacket, some odd things in the pockets.

Such as a SAK.

(Im not sure which one; has a lens, phillips screwdriver and scissors)

I cannot recall owning this; I generaly prefer the Camper (saw and scissors)

But Im not sniffing, you can never have too many SAKs

However it is full of fluff, do you know the best ways of cleaning these things.

Fluff is very hard to clean, I would begin by using a nit comb as fluff collects a lot of grit, I would then use Wrights Coal Tar soap, not that it is the best, I love the smell :)

Talking about fluff, my mam always had her false teeth in a pocket in her pinny while at home, if anyone knocked on the door she would throw her teeth in quickly, imagine the caller's face when she opened the door and had loads of fluff stuck in her teeth.
Those were the days. :)

Air compressor with a nozzle. Should blow all the crud out nicely. Just make sure to do it outside and watch your eyes.

+1 on the air compressor. If you don't have one or know somebody who does just stop by the nearest tire shop or automotive repair shop and ask if they'll blow it out for you.

Send the SAK to Me and I will clean it and return the fluff to you within two days. (you may find trhat the fluff returned is not the same fluff as you sent but it will be of equal weight and will come in it's own bag)

I took mine in to millets and they sent it back to victorinox for a service. Apparently it's part of their life time guarantee.

Yes, the company is Burton McCall

And for the Wenger versions, its Whitby Knives.

But mine is not that bad.

I Hadn't thought about the canned air; the type used for spraying dust from electronics. That might be worth a try.
