How about an Executive Rambler, Victorinox?

[mnblade]

Guys, I don't ask for much in this life. Give me my wife and kids, a cold beer from time to time, a freshly cut lawn, maybe a little Muddy Waters on the iPod and I'm about as happy as can be. But there's something Victorinox could do for me that would would make me an even happier man.

See, I've always liked the idea of owning an Executive but never bought one because I hate that you can't open a beer with it. Thus, my keychain knife is a Rambler. Well, I was thinking this evening, why not an Executive Rambler!? All they'd have to do is replace that goofy orange peeler on the Executive with a larger size caplifter/phillips driver ala the Rambler. Of they could even set their engineers to the task of figuring out how to augment the orange peeler with a caplifter. Either way, I'd get my long-sought-after 74mm SAK with a caplifter.

That's it ..... all I want for Christmas. Now, if I can just be a good boy between now and the end of the year.

Got to agree with you on that mn. I've carried an Executive for years and love it , but a caplifter blade would make just about perfect.

A combo tool sized to fit the knife would be more to my liking. But I agree that orange peeler is a ridiculous tool. It's the only thing that Vic does that I don't like.

I think that Victorinox should do something more in the 74 mm series.
I don't really see the need of having a 91mm and a 84mm series, while the 74 is a good mid point between the "standard" 91mm length and the "keychain" 58mm.
An Alox Bantam or Recruit of 74mm...that would be great.

Yeah, though the Executive is already a good knife in itself, I think it would be a good idea to have more tools on a 74mm size. I love Vic's bottle opener and can opener, and I wonder if they can fit it with the 74mm knives... hmmm.

I'm 100% with ya OP. A mid-sized Rambler would be awesome. Even better, if you could put a straight-pin behind either tweezer or toothpick, that would be great (for splinter removal). And a plus scale, with the ballpoint pen, and everyone would have one. A compact has all these things, but it's bigger.

Something like this would be great... But opening a bottle with a lighter also works... or anything else... not that styleful but ok.

But the TO is right, something like this would really be great!


Kind regards

Hi, what about a Rogue or a Salesman? Discontinued models, but maybe you may find one of them second hand
