Keychain SAK?

[colin.p]

Since I live twenty bucks from anywhere, I always carry my keys if I leave the house. The little SD Classic..is...well...a classic. The little Olight isn't too shabby either.

I suggest you go to Smoky Mountain Knives and get their exclusive Betsy Ross Tinker

Just arrived yesterday. They usually sell out quickly

The classic sd does seem like the best value but I personally think it's worth paying the extra $10 for the extra multi-tool that the Rambler has.(bottle opener/philips screwdriver/wire stripper)

I probably would have gotten the Rambler if one was available, at the store, when I bought the Classic. I may just pick one up in the future.

And I'll probably end up getting a classic sd just because I'll be curious to know if the slightly lighter weight and thickness will make a difference on the keychain lol. I noticed that the alox classic is listed at half the thickness as the standard scaled classic sd but then you lose the toothpick and tweezers and it costs about $10 more.

It's definitely worth it. That screwdriver/caplifter is a stroke of genius. And it's magnetic for an added bonus.

What's nice about the Classic is you can find all sorts of graphic versions, cool and entertaining alike.

I know it’s not what you’re looking for but I love my little olight

Here are the Classic, Rambler (custom scales) and Midnight Manager.

Rambler for the win - the knife blade orientation is correct. I used to carry the Classic, but once you've used the Rambler you'll never want a Classic again. I also recommend the keychain light here. It charges quickly with your cell phone cord and lasts forever + it is blindingly bright.

Have had a Classic on my keychain for many years, but think I may just have to get a Rambler now

 

[jacksterp]

I'm thinking the same thing...^^^

I would own a rambler already, except they don't have alox ramblers. For me is a real deal breaker. I just dislike plastic...

could you use alox scales from the classic and put it on a rambler?

One thing to consider about the Rambler, is that if you come across an interesting classic you can always swap the scales over.

Thanks for the info. It would be well worth buying a classic or classic sd just for the scales then plus you'd have spare parts too.

Update: After looking more into this it seems like the alox scales are a hassle to remove and I don't think I'd bother but some of the other scales don't seem too bad even though there's a risk of breaking them. Hopefully they release an alox model of the rambler sometime soon.
