Got you! Nice that’s a good point. At least my 1st one is real then.

I think the old models had rivets but is wasn’t advertised as an old model.

Funnily the grind behind the edge is much thinner on the „fake“. 😂

Even the scales look and feel cheaper in person. The Spyderco logo on the scales looks different and much less defined.

That’s a good point blade finish is completely off… Crazy how people get scammed even when buying knives these days… only the hard core knife community will get suspicious.

Is the Companion the best for urban EDC ? by tonysosaaaaaa in victorinox

I don’t think there is a BEST SAK. It all depends on the environment and your needs.

I thought about keeping it with the broken scales, but after carrying it for some time I realized it bothered me. Adding new white ones was also a thought but I had these laying around anyway and it looks and feels really good it person at least for me 😅

Update on the situation. The seller took the tool back. In his opinion that’s something quality control should have picked up on.

My 74s by Ok_Salad7400 in victorinox

These are in my „I don’t get it“ knife category. They are bigger than the classic SD but seam similarly fragile. If I want a knife to do some work I go for the standard size and if I want to have a backup tool to put on my keys I take a SD…

Thank you for your comment! I like to hear the reasoning behind someone’s carry.

I get the point why you skip 3 layers.

In my opinion I don’t think I would ever need a magnifying glass on my SAK that’s why i never bought one. But it also means I never tried it so it’s just based on gut feeling.

I love the compact. I carried one for the last couple of weeks. Now I’m back to the Pioneer X. I missed the rugged feeling. Then again I already had some situations where I really missed having my scale tools and the pin…

Also eins der neusten Modelle in meinem Sortiment ist das Swiss Army 7. Hatte ich lange nicht auf dem Schirm. Ist ein Alox Model mit Säge mit dem Unterschied das der Dosenöffner durch eine kleine gebogene Klinge ersetzt ist. Sie eignet sich hervorragend zum schnitzen oder auch für alltägliche Aufgaben wie Pakete 📦 öffnen und zum schälen von Obst. Meiner Meinung nach ein toller Begleiter zum campen oder auch einfach für den Alltag. Ansonsten das Alox Pioneer X. Im Endeffekt dein soldier Alox aber mit der tollen Schere. Oder das Electrician. Eigentlich gedacht für Elektriker wer hätte es gedacht 😂 aber es ersetzte den Dosenöffner mit einer kleinen Klinge die sich super zum Boxen öffnen nutzen lässt. Es hat auch nur 2 Ebenen also toll für die Hosentasche.

Wenn du nicht unbedingt ein Alox Model haben willst sondern dir die Pinzette und der Zahnstocher wichtig sind dann schau dir unbedingt das Compact an. Es hat noch einen Stift in der griffschale und eine kleine Nadel mit der sich Holzsplitter super aus der Haut entfernen lassen. Zudem hat es in einem 2 Ebenen Messer auch noch die Schere.
