I carry a Climber daily so I would like to see a Cadet with a pen blade replacing the file like they used to have. I would settle for a Pioneer type awl too, any but that useless file!
Berry red Cadet has been in my pocket since February 2020 (wanted to shrink my Farmer a bit). I like every single tool on it. With Berry in my pocket there are three screwdrivers always ready to help with toy disassembly which my older daugther loves so much. I really like the blade size and real cut file.
But this thread got me thinking: does it have enough tools? The answer seemed to be easy: It does! I just don't need scissors. I have them on my Classic on the apartment keys and have never used them. Well...maybe from time to time...maybe I would used them more if I wasn't lazy to go downstairs grab my Classic and do the job.
The seed of doubt was planted in my mind.
After a few weeks I pulled the trigger and ask local modder for upgrading my Berry to Berry X. And replace the original blade with an older one that is slightly wider and bit better ground. And put the blade where it should be: to the middle layer. AND replace one rivet with hollow one.
Now that it's home, I have to say that scissors are indeed very useful to have on daily carry SAK. I love Cadet X!

That looks great! The Cadet X packs a whole lotta useful tools in a compact and SLIM package.
