What SAK are ya totin' today?

[yablanowitz]

My latest creation. I think I'll call it the Cybertist. Cross between a small Cybertool and Scientist, with a light thrown in for good measure.

Victorinox alpineer today. Simple knife with the useful toothpick and tweezers. And the corkscrew that is a must.

Thanks John.
Vic's 2 and 3 layer SAKs are wonderful compact and useful daily carrys. With a classic on a key-ring and a Tinker in the pocket, one has virtually every pocket tool typically needed (in a city/town environment) and none that aren't. I commend you for your choice of daily carries because as you know, the small Tinker outshines most any knife as an EDC!

Lee D Sounds like a good idea to me.



There are days I won't need openers and because I love alox, a Bushcrafter substitutes for my small Tinker. Thin as most single blade knives the Bushcrafter packs a punch and saw in addition to a blade, making it far more useful than just a single blade knife. So today, along with the Classic on my key-ring, I'm totin this Davie's Blue Bushcrafter and feel very fortunate to have it.

Have a great day John, Lee and all.

I have to agree about the Small Tinker. I carried one almost exclusively for many years, only sharing pocket time with an Old Timer 34OT. Can’t tell you how many things I fixed, assembled or disassembled with it.

Love your bushcrafter too! I have a couple of Lumberjacks and an Alox Lumberjack that can do everything the Small Tinker can minus the awl/punch.

Is the Alox Lumberjack one or two springs?

 

[315]

It’s a 2 spring knife to accommodate the saw.

I think a two spring SAK is as thin as I like 'em. When a knife gets too thin they are sometimes uncomfortable to use and Alox SAKs are made for work. Thanks for the info. wish I had picked one up when they were reasonably priced... nice knife.

These I carry about every day, the Executive and Pioneer ride in my front right pocket, the Swiss Tool and the Mechanic and Super Tinker ride in my 'Murse' to work with me, always at hand when needed.
