If you wonder which SAK is for you. Talk to the "experts" at http://www.sosakonline.com ;)

Appletree_man - ISTR that the pen, being wider and thicker than a toothpick, has a slightly different plastic bit at the top (grey?) which is a different size and as such won't fit in the slot.

Ah.
Ok many thanks.

I have a Swiss Army knife very similar to the Picnicker (except mine has the addition of a saw). It's really useful and I've used everything on it, I especially like the addition of tweezers and toothpick which are really handy. I take it to work with me even though this is probably illegal as its a lock kinfe, but I really do need it for my job. The only thing I don't like about it is the reamer as it's really difficult to get out.

I've had a SAK farmer for nearly a year and it is the best EDC i've had. More solid than the standard ones plus the blade is thicker and a wee bit longer :D

I own two swiss army knives, one genuine, one not. I purchased neither; they were both gifts and unfortunately I must say I never carry either and they don't get used. I tried carrying the genuine one in my pack for a few trips but it still got forgotten about and not used. :eek:

I've had my trusty SAK (camper I think) since for ever (well, 1986), got it when I joined up. Been a trusty bit of kit eversince, been all round the world with me. Sadly the scissors broke the other week and I was quite concerned that I'd have to retire it (I'm a sentimental old sod:D ), but thanks to this thread I've realised I may be able to get it repaired!!!:You_Rock_

Hi, nice thread :)

Mine is the Huntsman 1.3713.

I own it for about 15 years now and only once had to change the scales.

On the saw my name is engraved :eek: :rolleyes: (I had that done when I was about 16)

I ALWAYS have it with me, except when flying :cussing: Stupid regulations.

Mike
