Scissors on an SAK Trekker/GAK?
on: August 17, 2015, 07:48:10 PM

  How hard would it be to mod a pair of 91mm scissors onto a Vic Trekker/GAK?
I knew my wife was a keeper when she transitioned from calling it a knife thingy to a multi-tool.

If you can put up with a nail nick and slide lock instead of OHO and liner lock then the Outrider fits the bill: http://www.sakwiki.com/tiki-index.php?page=Outrider

Otherwise, you'll need to drill out the holes on the scissors, philips driver and its spring as the pivot pins on a liner lock knife are large than those on a slide lock.

I already have a 111mm slide lock (Hercules). I was interested in the Trekker due to the oho aspect. Back to the drawing board.

Drilling the tools/springs isn't that difficult.  A carbide bit in a hand drill should be sufficient if you're careful, then clean up the hole with some wet and dry paper or emery cloth.
