If I wasn't gonna switch off between knives I think I could pull this off with a compact w/backside phillips, whatever we call that model. Its been well over 2 months since I've opened wine.

I consistently EDC a Pioneer and a alox Rambler, two 2-layer SAKs, in my pants pockets. Does that make me eligible to partake in the challenge?

But then, this would mean I'd have to leave my Spirit + (Vic) Hadyman -with nylon scales- combo behind and I'm not sure I can do that anymore!

Yeah, can someone carry lots of two layer SAKs?  If I carried a Compact and a Scientist I think I'd feel pretty prepared.

The Pioneer X, as minimal as it is, has one layer too many, so I will be watching with interest.  :popcorn:

Good luck all!  :tu:

Sounds like a lot of hard work just to get an imaginary badge... probably easier to cheat.

"Here! Thunderpants! Have a Victoria Cross!"
"Lovely! Thanks a lot."
"Don't wear it on parades! Remember - You're not a real soldier!"
"Roger that! Tally ho! Chocks away! Last one in Berlin's a rotten egg. Etc...."

Well, hiraethus did give another incentive  ;) as for cheating, I suppose it's every man and their con-science (see what I did there?).

Carry 30 SAK's simultaneously for 30 days.

Just to confirm, for the hard of thinking (firiki, I'm looking at you :pok:), minimalist means just that.  One SAK only at one time.  But you can change it day to day if you want.

I think it's a clever challenge, that is definitely badge worthy. For those that complete the 30, kudos :clap:

firiki never claimed to be anything else...  :D

My real problem, though, is my vivid imagination, I think. I imagined that carrying two SAKs that fit the bill would double my eligibilitivess and perhaps boost my chances of getting that badge, is all :angel:

Just for you, I'll get a special badge done.  Carry 2 SAKs together for 15 days and post a pic a day.  Something like this, maybe:

Won't work for me.  If it was a 6 layer challenge and I could have at least 3 SAKs and a multitool on me at all times then fine.  Just can't make two layers work.  You see, I have been a max-imist since birth.  😜😜😜

Count me out, most of my preferred SAKs have three layers (one of them being scissors).

I thought about doing something else, the Outrider Oktoberfest, but I need an Outrider first!  ;)
