all 111mm screwdrivers created equal?

[platbuck]

was surprised to read somewhere recently that the 111mm Trekker model has a larger screwdriver/caplifter than the 111mm Rucksack. Is this true?? I thought for each SAK size, tools were identical???

Tis true. The ones with the slide lock release have a smaller driver.

I hadn't noticed it before but, yes, the cap lifter/screw driver on the OHT is about a 1/4" longer. The screwdriver blade tip is about 1/16" wider. It's also a bit thicker.

While browsing the 111mm models I did get the impression that older button-lock models have smaller flathead screwdriver / cap lifter, but I didn't know for sure until now. Thanks!

Interestingly the pliers and scissors on 111mm models are identical in size to 91mm models.

quick photo comparison:

Nomad (black, liner lock release), Picnicker (red, sliding button lock release)

Also, the screwdriver/opener locks on the lockblades with liner lock release but not on the ones with the sliding button lock release.

that is very interesting !

yes. Maybe the locking function can facilitate a stronger driver that can also be used for prying.



thanks for the confirmation, any other tools on the 111mm that vary?? also, I imagine both have a 90 degree stop??
