Nice instructional photos. It's always good to see real action shots in contrast to posed shelf queen pics. Good job! :thumbup:

My two favorite tools on SAK's / multi tools are the saw and file. The screwdrivers get used more often in the civilized world, but I love how easy it is to make shavings with the saw or file. You can get just about any dry woody material to light with a firesteel if you make a fine powder out of it. Very, very handy stuff.

What are those notches on the end of the SAK scales?

What are those notches on the end of the SAK scales?

they help with grip when using the saw as a striker
