Two Opis and some SAKs in the mail
Coffee time to fondle and check them, maintenance and tinkering comes this evening!

Which SAK is that one on the far right? I'm looking for the smallest SAK that has both the toothpick (which I use more than any other tool on my SAK) and a can opener. That one looks to have a bottle opener at least, which I could maybe file into a can opener.Two Opis and some SAKs in the mail
I currently carry the Small Tinker.

It's always big to have options when slicing your coffee. Nice workhorse traditionals!

There are several that you could check out. The Waiter has blade, bottle opener (combo tool) and corkscrew.
The Bantam has those minus corkscrew. The Solo has blade only.
Thin Vics with minial tool loadout, the combo tool can easily be modified to act as a can opener. The Bantam comes in an alox scales version which is really thin, I'd say half the red cellidor model.
Hope it helps!

The fob-knife is Providence Cutlery Co. The Fairmount cutlery is a Camillus brand from the 1930s.

Very nice what's the one on the left ?
I believe that is a GEC Maverick, built on the #62 frame. An underrated pattern IMO.

Yup, that's a maverick! Three blades, rounded bolsters, ebony wood. A great congress kind of pattern! Those two bring my congress collection up to 3 [emoji1417]

How do you like the Mav? It's one that I'm back and forth on buying.

I was back and forth too but I'm really glad that I got one! Three really usable blade shapes in a great package! I'll try to post more pics at some point.

Thanks Harry! Some bladeplay on the main blade so I'm considering sending it to GEC. Either way, she's a real beaut!

I've heard chatter about the main blade being undersized, but it seems like a handy blade size with enough handle to be useable.
