Neat trick with the lanyard on the SAK. Is it microcord or whatever the super mini paracord is called?

Thanks! That's 275 paracord, my favorite. I find 550 paracord too thick for most lanyards.

Just a shot of my daughters sak. She bought it used in 2018 while we were in the UP Michigan on vacation.

It’s been laying on the dining room hutch for a few months. I asked her about it and she said she couldn’t get it open. Upon inspection she was correct. It pretty much was seized shut. I think she might of gotten wet sand in it on vacation this year.
So after letting it soak for a couple of days with 3in1 oil today I cleaned it up and oiled it. Opens fine now.

This little guy never gets carried. It was given to my mom when I was born in 1972 by an insurance agent.

When I was about 10! I gave myself one of the worse cuts I have ever had on my left pointing finger. As I got older sometimes I would carry it but more than not it was left in the drawer for something “cooler”.

When I went off to college I gave it to my little brother. My brother unfortunately took a path that lead him in and out of several different jails and prisons.

I never really thought about this knife until my mom about 6 or so years ago called me asking if I wanted it.Of course I did. It just lives in my knife drawer but makes me think of simpler times.

Nice one mate. Sometimes it's not just the knife, it's the memories attached that matter.

SAK awls are the best so I did a little mod.

I had taken a pic of some SAKs a few weeks ago for a different thread, but did not think to post it here. I carry a SAK just about every day. Unbelievably useful little tool to be able to haul around with you.

LOL I always forget this one as it sits in a vehicle emergency kit. Has seen zero use, but always available. Rescue Tool.

The lume still works.
