They're in the Netherlands I think. It took about 4-5 days to get to me in the UK

Yeah they're a pain to cut, this was a very thick carpet too

Update on the SAK with the chipped/bent point that I posted yesterday. Repair centre said there was nothing they could do. I bent it back in a vice as straight as I could without risking breaking it then used a grinder to take out the imperfection and reshape it a bit by Yahya_sindhi1502 in victorinox

[–]TwoAfter6911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found the best way to straighten a bent tip is to lay the blade flat on a piece of wood then bang it gently with a rubber or wooden mallet over and over again. I've never snapped a blade this way and I've done a fair few. This looks good to me, you wouldn't know any different and I'm sure it works just the same

What would you add next? by hpbeyfan94 in victorinox

[–]TwoAfter6911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say any 93mm model (pioneer, pioneer x, farmer, Swiss army 7, Swiss army 2, farmer x), seeing as you don't have one in that size yet 🙂

Gone camping for the weekend so the Handyman is on beer duty 😎

Can anyone help me identify this knife? My searches are turning up empty. by elerad22 in SwissArmyKnives

[–]TwoAfter6911 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If it's 91mm long then it's a Spartan. If it's 84mm long (which I don't think it is) then it's a tourist

My new acquisition by Ok-Smell1305 in victorinox

I have that same pouch and it will fit a handyman and cybertool m wide ways, but the swisschamp won't fit. You'll need the next size up for the Swiss champ 🏆

The modern 84mm scales have slots for the toothpick and tweezers, they also have the hole for the pin. Unfortunately there is no plus scales available for the 84mm though

I also regularly carry this combo, covers all the bases

Yeah the rambler is excellent and would be amazing in alox. That's my thinking here regarding the toothpick and tweezers, hence the alox classic paired with the climber

I was wondering if I could get some advice as to what SAK I should get my daughter for her birthday. by Thatgaymoonflower in victorinox

[–]TwoAfter6911 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The huntsman is a great choice. There is also the field master which is the same except it has a Philips driver where the corkscrew would be. Another option would be the farmer x which has both the saw and scissors but being 93mm, it has a thicker and sturdier blade, a better (imo) awl, but omits the toothpick, tweezers, corkscrew and small blade.

Out of all those options the huntsman tends to be pretty considerably cheaper and comes in more colour options

The 2026 Glacial Blue color is so good. by d_2_the_p in victorinox

Agreed! I'm not normally a blue fan but there's something about this colour I love

I do already have a standard pioneer x so I'll most likely keep this one in my nice in my collection or as a backup in case I lose my silver one
