Victorinox Alox Farmer vs Victorinox Ranger: blades difference

[martineden]

The SAK Alox Farmer and the SAK Ranger are two of my favorites knives out in the woods. Both are very similar in length (Farmer 93mm - Ranger 91mm), anyway the blades are significantly different: the Farmer blade is higher, a bit longer, and thicker (2,7mm vs 2,0mm - maximum thickness) than the Ranger blade.
That said, both are very efficient...

Enjoy your Bushcraft!

That is one of the benefits of 93mm Alox models, they have a more stout/robust main blade. That and the awl at one end other than the middle of the backside.
