I have 30 year old Wenger SAK which is a real brick. It's one of those models with about everything you can get on it. It's way to heavy for pocket carry. Probably weighs like a ZT 0551.

I'd like a few recommendations for a lightweight Victorinox SAK - I'd like to buy a few for rotation. I'd be wanting a model with the checkered Aluminum looking handles (very cool to me) and having a main blade and two types of screwdrivers and not a whole lot else. Maybe a can opener?

Main thing is it should carry nicely in my pocket without much weight.

Feel free to sggest features you'd think would be handy since I can't think of many that I ever use - but ya never know. Thanks! :thumbup:
 
I like the alox rancher a lot, it has the smaller blade instead of the second screwdriver/can opener. I think the pioneer or the cadet has the 2 screw driver
 
Look into the Alox Cadet and larger Alox Pioneers. The cadet is a 84mm model and the pioneer is a 93mm model. The each has a blade, small screwdriver/can opener, large screwdriver/cap lifter. The cadet also has a nail file while the pioneer has a leather punch.
 
Personally, I'd go with Victorinox over Wenger. Victorinox owns Wenger, and seems to build them with slightly lower quality.
 
Thanks guys. I'll Google your suggestions and pick one out. Much appreciated! :thumbup:
 
alox pioneer would get my vote, too.
for the record, I EDC a Vic Huntsman.
