Hello from the Borders
on: February 07, 2016, 08:56:50 AM
Hello from the south side of the Scottish Borders.  It's early Sunday morning and I'm dithering about heading to my local garden centre for a Costa coffee and another SAK.

I still regularly carry the second SAK I bought, the first champion I saw with black scales back in the mid 80's (the first grew legs).  At work I carry one of the rescue tools on a daily basis.

Strangely I seem to have a draw full of SAK, mainly the SD model, but its not a collection, I could stop buying them any time I wanted to.
