General Tool Discussion / Re: Australian Knife Laws

« Last post by Vidar on Today at 01:27:16 PM »

To be fair that there are still schools and areas around where knives are just tools like any other - more so in rural areas though. There are still kindergardens around where the kids use knives as part of their outdoors activities from they are 4-5 years old or so.

More to the point. The law is the law here but how it is interpreted seems to vary wildly depending on region and situational setting. That might be more even in Australia? Having visited Australia a few times I reckon common sense might be more common than this thread give it credit for?

Swiss Army Knights Forum / Re: Three Layer Thursday!

« Last post by IMR4198 on Today at 01:17:28 PM »

    A cold outside Three Layer Thursday here.  Cold considering I have already been mowing for a couple of weeks anyway.  Three layer knife for today.  Easy to tell what it is.  I tried to get three deer to stand in front of the camera, but they don't take instructions very well.  The state put up a deer crossing sign at the old barn just across the road from me.  Do the deer follow the sign and cross there?  No.  They just go anywhere they please.  Best wishes.  G

    BPRoberts has one of them and some of the other guys wrote about owning them quite a while back.  I am not sure why they didn't catch on so well.  I probably would have bought one if I had found a used one cheap like z. 
     I don't recall having a dislike for a SAK because of its color.  I never really thought about it that way.  I know the scissors on the bigger Swiza are very different from Wenger or Vic.  I'm looking forward to hearing what you think of the D09.  Be sure to post a photo and a link for your video.  Best wishes.  G

I don't know about that.
I would hate to come up against a 10 year old scout with a victornox in his hand.
He might build a shelter around you.
Or construct a hammock.

You never know with these dangerous kids.

Thanks @IMR4198 @AzteCypher I appreciate it. It's a great system overall, impressive for the price. You get the feel of a TSProf/Hapstone type of thing at a cheaper price.

And my small Clipper. Just as good as the big one.
I got this small Fiskars utility knife. Not good.

Swiss Army Knights Forum / Swiza, some quite unusual Swiss Army Knives ..

« Last post by zrxoa1 on Today at 11:08:14 AM »

I’ve had a few. I think they are nice. My first vine had to be returned as the blade lock did not work correctly.

I don’t use my current one very often. I can’t recall what model it is.

Edit:  mine is a D03. Got it really cheap, used.
