What SAK are ya totin' today?

[TonySal]

It's a serrated Spartan also know as a "weekender" the serrations have been worn from use and touched up over the years with a Lansky triangle stone for serrations, but it's pretty much looks the same as when I bought it. Great for cutting meat at a bush barbie.

Serrated Spartan a favorite. Was available from REI

Today I carried a trio of Huntsman, I took them to school an interested young fella, working with me, about the small things that differ between old and new models The Huntsman is one of my favourites, but then again all saks are my favorites

Great trio and I am always intrigued by the subtle differences in SAK's, ridged/threaded, 4 or 5 turn corkscrews, , hole or no hole in the punch, clip or spear secondary, even a darker shade of red from current to older models, also the difference in the scissor pivot. Older models minus the parcel carrier, Capital or small "V" in victorinox tang stamp, or if the blade is stamped "VICTORIA"....the list is quite long and interesting.

And if your a little bit forgetful it's a nice surprise everytime you look at your knives. I have thought about tagging my knives with there model and age but then I realise I enjoy looking at all the little clues.

Vintage Small Tinker (AGAIN) I am a sucker when these pop up on the auction site if it has the squared phillips and clip pen blade I buy it. I must have 6 of them at least I do however gift SAKS on a pretty frequent basis so there's that

Grabbed this 84mm when I got home today. My brain isn’t working well, I think it’s a tourist? Small tinker with corkscrew instead of Phillips.

 

[sonofwilfred]

It's an 84mm kinda day

I’m a big spartan fan... and always have the little shamrock on my keychain.

I'm rocking the Tourist in my pocket and, as always, the Rambler on my key ring.
