What SAK are ya totin' today?

[sonofwilfred]

Sweet. Basically a helmsman with straight edge and blunt tip. I find the marlinspike very handy on mine.
I do the rounded tip concept,I have thought about getting 1 of the first my first Swiss with the rounded tip to try.
Thanks for sharing.

I have a Tinker small with rounded tip, its different, but yes buy one a try it out

This one was Japanese market only.

A must have for any sailor. Don't think I seen that model before, pretty unique.
Was it issued to you?
Looks like the little guy has some interest. You two have a great weekend.

G'day mate, that's a fine knife. It deserves to be noticed. I'm guessing 1964, it can only be 62-63 or 1964 being red. Well done on finding that piece of history.

It’s hot as a mofo today so I’m sticking around the house, doing nothing

An interesting older small Tinker in my pocket today. Given to me by a great mate.

A Victorinox small Tinker (84mm) and a G Sakai Fieldman with ZDP-189 blades. Basically the same tools as a 91mm Tinker, but the G Sakai's ZDP-189 blade edges are impressive. The ZDP-189 will no doubt be fun to sharpen.

My evening walking partner (my daughter’s dog) decided she needed a closer look at my neighbor’s cattle and got her tail fur caught in the fence. She was in full-panic mode until my SAK came to the rescue!

Just picked up a custom from Beaver Bladeworks. Can't wait to get it in hand to see if I like it.

Some-days one SAK just won't do.
These two compliment each other well with a wide variety of pocket tools yet with zero redundancy.
Rambler/Bushcrafter

Sorry John but you're right. The Bushcrafters are super cool!
Though I'll tell you my friend I actually prefer a Farmer. Farmers as you know, have the exact same tools as the Bushcrafter only with an opening layer added. That opening layer is quite useful especially for it's screwdrivers. Plus, I feel a third layer makes the alox SAKs more comfortable to use and a bit easier to grip.
Farmers are easy to come by yet with a little extra investment (either time or money) anyone can have a Bushcrafter. Just remove one layer from the Farmer.
I will admit it's nice to have had the factory build it that way originally then just carry a Rambler with it for the toothpick, tweezers, file, small blade and phillipshead.
Just some stuff to consider when comparing Bushcrafters vs. Farmers.

I'm carrying a solo alox and a huntsman today. I'm giving the blade on my huntsman a rest for a while.

Carrying my new Super Tinker at work during a nightshift.

My Huntsman is always with me
