About as close to a SAK as you'll get on ebay UK these days  ::)

Not quite sure where they get the 1990 bit from as they are still available.  :think:
I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

That still amazes me. I went over to eBay UK and typed in Victorinox and Wenger to no effect. Not a single SAK was evident. Then I typed in Leatherman, and only got nylon sheaths. Things got more interesting for SOG and Gerber. At least they show MTs.

eBay UK is a giant waste of time.
A little Leatherman information.

Only for MTs and SAKs, i've had some fantastic bargains in the past on various things. So no eBayUK is not a giant waste of time.

It is if your only interest is MTs and SAKs.

But your point is well taken.

Tim sent me a very nice Spirit lats mont and I'll use him again when I want enought to make an across the pond order worth the postage, and I bought a nice Alox soldier today from Gersey. 

But I miss the thrill of wining on eBay
