Cute one for St Patty's thanks Ken!!!

[Gary W. Graley]

Got this from my buddy that lives on the top of the world, well, depends on how you look at the world I suppose it's an unusual knife for a SAK in that there aren't any 'tools' on this one, just two blades, one is a typical main blade, the other was a pruning hawkbill blade that Ken ground down into a sheepsfoot blade that works very well!
The Green is really great, being winter here still, it was nice to get a refreshing bit of green into our house!

Thanks again Ken, aka harronek

:thumbup:

The green really pops with the victorinox logo, great find by Harronek for sure
It certainly feels like summer here is california 90's weather already :grumpy:

I never gave it a thought but I am glad it arrived in time for St Patricks Day .
That little Sheepsfoot is a very handy blade for around the house and office .

I'd forgotten about that Paul .
I don't know which one of us did it first , or if I was the Chicken or the Egg , but lets just agree that we have exquisite taste in knife alteration
My knife world has really narrowed done lately and even though it sounds like Heresy to say this in this forum , my SAK requirements are completely covered by my Farmer .
It twists my undies seeing knives sitting unused , and I have really sweep the floor clean lately .

Gary will be embarrassed with what I'm about to say but ....

Gary is a " Top Bloke " .

Yup that just sums it up in a minimalistic way

Ken, I think the Planets had aligned or something of the like---I had "in a stupid move" snapped the tip of the Pruner blade and made the Sheepfoot conversion---came to this forum and Tah Dah---You had done the same thing a few days? earlier---I chalked up to the "great minds think alike" kinda thing

Awesome! I have this knife and love it.
I want to make the pruner a Sheep Foot! Maybe I can... with help.

At one time, Victorinox had a green Classic with a shamrock printed on it.

Not to be rude, but my Norwegian ancestry requires me to point ut that Knute Rockne of the Fighting Irish was born in Voss, Norway - right on.

 

[Gary W. Graley]

I remember seeing those! and yes, that's good to clear up that about Knute, always wondered about him !
