The million dollar Wenger came to the rescue today... It opened a bottle of mineral water for some complete strangers when I was out for my lunch hour

This went over my head. And my Google-Fu is weak today.  :(
Can anyone explain, what is a 1m$ SAK?

Iirc, it's a Evo 557, no S , so without the locks (right?)

Thank you for the answers! And why did kirk13 pay 1'000'000 $ for it?  :think:

It's kind of a running joke RT. I got it from one of our MIA members,Grumpy. He'd emailed to tell he bout this lockless S557 he'd acquired,and was I interested? When I asked how much,the answer was....

To this day,as far as I know,it's unique :climber:

Haha, that's great!  :tu: I did not know a S557 is a rarity. The more I like you using it.  :salute:

Yesterday I felt a nagging at my pants pocket. Turns out my SO helt a beer bottle and wanted my Climber to open it - for me!  :cheers:

Been using the short tweezers from my Watchman to pull metal splinters from my hands the last two days.

I have a mod in the works. :D You guys are going to like it.
Nothing special, but something cool nonetheless.

Opened a couple bottles of ginger beer this evening with my Cadet to make the Mrs and I Moscow Mules :D The Mrs was trying to unjam the shredder earlier today and I handed her my Spirit. Immediately she went for the knife and went to chopping inside the shredding area (with it unplugged of course). Success!¡! We now have an operational shredder again :D

Had to use the small blade on my Vic Ranger to free my little girls newest "My Little Pony". FYI these things multiply like bored rabbits.

Knife blade to cut some tape and packaging.

Had a cigar and listened to the radio out on the porch this afternoon...the Farmer, Milticlip and Vic combo thermometer joined me.  The temps are dropping and wind howling but my cigar stayed secure!! :tu:

:tu: SAKs are indispensable! I feel sorry for folks that have never owned them and have to run around looking for needed tools all day.

That they are :tu:  I wish I had gotten interested in them much earlier in my life, rather than less than two years ago.  At the very least, one should have the basic personal grooming tools (scissors, nail file), as well as the knife.

I opened a package of lunch meat with my pocket tool chest. Then turned the package over and saw the
"peal here to open" tag. :facepalm:
