Victorinox Delémont Collection

I bought the S111 in part because of the lock since I wanted to see how it worked, but I prefer the Vic Small Tinker overall. The lock button sticks out when the blade is closed and I don't need a locking blade on a SAK. I end up carrying a Vic Manager on my keychain and I keep the Vic Small Tinker in my bag. This provides me with everything I use in an urban setting with minimal overlap in tools.

The EvoGrip 18 looks fantastic, including the tools that I think are most useful (I have a Farmer because I wanted a knife with the saw). Part of the reason I bought the EvoWood 16 is because Vic doesn't offers scissors on their 84 mm knives. For more general SAK use in a single knife, I think the Delemont EvoGrip 18 looks great. Having said that, there appears to be an S18 as well.

Upon further inspection this model which I thought was my dream come true actually has a Nail File instead of what looks like a small pen blade. I guess the delemont collection holds true to the rest of Vics models. They are all missing something. lol
 
My local shop received their first shipment of the new Delemont range this week. I could not walk out empty handed of course, so I bought an Evolution S16 (Super Tinker).







So far I like it, but the jury is still out to decide if it will replace my Pioneer for regular carry.
