I love my SAK's. They are about the best utilitarian knife that makes sense to carry IMO. Mine have taken a beating through daily rough use... Just wanted to share my couple that I own and my new addition... the Vic Trekker Serrated...Very impressed with the size and typical quality that Victorinox brings to the table...
Here's my SAK on my keychain. I'm not sure what model it is, but it has the blade, file, toothpick and tweezers. Would love to know the name! Watchcollector, you have a nice collection there! Sent from my iPhone using X-ray radiation
I have owned and parted with many. A Farmer is once again on my list right now, it was one of my favorites. Right now, though, the only thing I have is one of these SwissBianco GITD Trekkers w/ Corkscrew: The image was borrowed. Mine is #104 and was given to me by the awesome XBanker. I love the thing, carry it at work here and there in my rotation as a knife that isn't too scary.
Gotta love the SAK. Mine left to right, Alox Bantam, Solo Alox, Wenger Soldier, Alox Farmer, Vic Explorer (with homemade hi viz orange scales) image by Simon_Knight73, on Flickr
I only have this LE Classic: I usually carry it, but it's mostly for the toothpick & the tweezers so it'll probably get replaced by something else at one point. Hopefully a nice toothpick case if I can find one that works for me. I used to have an army issued Alox Cadet as well, but that was stolen from me unfortunately. It might just be the only knife I ever lost. I did just receive a new Swiss tool though, my proud first purchase through this forum
Thanks! My camera (Lumix TZ5) doesn't seem to like macro very much & my photo's usually suck without natural light, but I got a little lucky on this one. I didn't even have to mess with the brightness in photoshop this time, lol But it is probably too pretty to make ugly pictures of anyway

Awesome! I love those old Cross Alox (especially that solider ) . I just sent my old Cross Silver Electrician to Syph007 for a little work!
On the top is a wenger. My father gave it to me and that was actually the very first knife I've ever owned. I believe it is about 13-14 years old now. On the bottom is a small tinker, and right in the middle is my fieldmaster.
I like this idea i personally dont have the POX so this is right up my ally. The one on top is my fathers the bottom one is mine.
I make a few of the plastic ones too. Here is a Voyager compact. And here is an 84mm golfer I made (posed with its bigger brother 91mm compact on left) with modern 91mm scissors.
