Today, the post office had a lovely pink package from the Bee man.  :D



Inside, was ANOTHER pink package... :ahhh

Pink?   ???




Ah...
But here's where it starts to get good.  :o  :D





So.
Neil sent me this EXTREMELY cool Alox SAK.  Awesome looking old scales.



For Mike LotS, it appears this is one of the ever awesome Farmers.  Nice!



 :think:  Ok... So it's an Electrician Plus with Red Alox scales. That's pretty unusual!  :o

Actually, Neil graciously put on the old scales when I starting whinging and wringing my hands.  Sorta like this:  :ahhh

I mean, I wanted something sorta unique, you know?










 :D :D :D :D
I don't really what to call this, but it is AWESOME.   Thank you Neil! :tu:  :cheers:

Oh, and yeah, it has brass liners too.  :D :ahhh :ahhh :D


These are a few shots comparing it to its relatives.

From left to right: Blue Farmer, Electrician Plus, Old Red Pioneer, ?Battle Surgeon? (Soldier with Scissors), Latest and greatest Alox knife Ev4R ;)!



This last one has the distinguishing tools fanned out.


Neil, this is absolutely beautiful.  It has excellent snap and aesthetically, it is simply stunning. I believe I can honestly say, I am totally "chuffed".  ;)

Thank you, so much.  :cheers:

Very Nice!

That is a really great pocket knife... of course any Aplox with scissors is.

I wonder if that backspring would allow the small-pruner to replace the Cap-Lifter... that would make it such a great knife for me to combo with others.

I'm not sure, but I think one of the Brits may have to start a proper poll for the naming of this tool.

I've sort of settled on Alox Bee-lectrician.  But again, perhaps a poll should settle this... :ahhh

Can the master make an alox swiss champ or is that asking too much, it would sure be heavy.

That's a pretty good name; has the electrical covered, but also has the implied 'heavy duty' nature of this particular tool.  take the knife and a set of lineman's pliers and your all set.
