Wow Buzz, Love The Green Micarta Huntsman, Red Micarta Hiker, Orange G-10 Swisschamp, And Those Alox Models!! *Drool*
You Ever Want To Get Rid Of Any, Let Me Know! Lol.

Especially Those Micarta Vics, The Swisschamp, And That Red Alox Farmer, And Red Alox Pioneer, And The Soldier!
 
Oh Man! I Would Love Blue G-10 On My Explorer! Or One Blue G-10 Scale And One Orange G-10 Scale.
Let Me Know If You Ever Start Doing Them For Other People.
 
I've a few SAK's in my my collection, but none near as fancy as I've seen here so far. Anyway, my Tinker usually ends up in my pocket, so here it is:

You Don't Need To Have Fancy SAK's To Post Here, I Don't Have Anything Very Noteworthy But I Love Them So That's What Counts.
Also, Very Nice Tinker, I Really Like It.
Is That Just The Standard Tinker Or Is It A Super Or Deluxe Tinker?

I've Added Quite A Few To My Collection Since I Started This Thread. But I Knew There Were Some SAK Lovers And They Deserve To Show Them Off, Plus, It's Eye Candy For Me Lol.

I Think My Favorite New Addition Would Have To Be The Victorinox Silver Alox Soldier I Just Got, I Love That Thing. But One I've Had, Would Be My Explorer. It's Just A Great Knife, And I Take It Absolutely Everywhere. Actually We Made A Trip To The Dentist Today Lol.
 
It's a standard Tinker. My latest is a Vic Farmer, I think I'm in love with the Alox knives. My next is probably going to be a Wenger soldier knife, I like the bail on them.
 
Ah, I Need A Farmer, I've Been Looking For One.
But I'll Get One Eventually.
I've Come To Love My SAK's A Lot.
I Was A Huge Folder Collector, And Had Many Folders Of High Value And That Were Sought After.
Well, I Never Did Anything With Them, They Would Just Sit.
Recently I Got Into SAK's, And I Carry Them All the Time And Can Find a Use For Just About Any Of The Tools And Use Them Like It's My Job.
Especially My Explorer.
And My Carry-On User Folder Is A Simple Ka-Bar Dozier.
I'm Keeping Things More Simple And Practical Rather Than "Oh Wow That's A Sweet(Expensive As Hell) Knife I Want It!"
Now It's Like "Oh That's A Really Nice One And I'm Sure It Would Do A Lot Of Traveling And Work If It Felt Up To It."
And Besides You Can Get SAK's For Really Good Prices, They Are Great Sturdy Wonderful Knives, And Have A Fabulous Warranty. But Just Because The Knives Are Pretty Well Priced Doesn't Mean You Get Less Quality, You Get A Wonderful Knife With Excellent F&F And Quality For A Good Price.

My Alox Models Are Scarce Lol.
Green Alox Companion
Gold Alox Classic
Silver Alox Classic
Silver Alox Bantam
Silver Alox Soldier
 
I do all of the custom work myself. It's a long ordeal, as I don't have a ton of tools, but worth the effort.

How do you open the channels for the toothpick, tweezers and pen? and how do you keep them clean of epoxy when you are gluing the scales to the knife?
I am asking because I plan to do a couple of mods like this soon.
Thanks + Regards

I use a jewelers file and dremel tool to do the channels. It's easily the toughest part of making the scales. Lots of work.

Other than making sure not to use too much epoxy, it's hard to keep the channels from filling in. I do make lateral grooves on the inside of the scales, that do not flow into the channels, and try to fill the grooves with epoxy.
