Nice snag. Curious if it has file on the phillipsThank you! I actually went over there looking for a Compact and found this and am so happy as it is a close match with my Woodsman.Going to check for that file first thing, hope it's there.It looked to be in great shape. I'm kind of a bottom feeder on inexpensive SAKs but that was a pretty good deal on one this collectible. I considered it! Glad you got it. I ended up finding a really cheap Compact as part of a 2 knife lot. I'm just looking for the combo tool as a donor part so I'm not picky but what often happens is if the knife cleans up well I don't have the heart to part it out. This one not only doesn't have the file on the hook, it doesn't have the hook! Rear scale has a deep ding though.The odd thing is that from the pictures it looks like the pen head is metal (?!) Not sure what I'm looking at with the seller's blurry photo but it doesn't look like the pen head on all my other plus scales pens.Also grabbed an 84mm Electrician, at least I think that's what it is, one of those Radio Shack ones.Like I said, bottom feeder! But man...I could see myself parting with some money for one of those Space Shuttle Master Caftsmans...somedayAwesome grabs Foldy B and Oxford G. Fine pieces for the collection. Unless I am wrong, what you have there is a Golfer 91mm (no hook) instead of Compact.Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkAh yes...before the hotdog fork...er...divot tool. Crap maybe I can't part this out...then again looks to be in rough shape...we'll see. That's how they should have marketed this knife, the Victorinox Hot Dog Tool. Probably more hot dog consumers carry a SAK than Golf players.

Latest batch consists of the following (All NiB)3 tinkers, 2 rambers and two red alox cadets.The red cadets are mod fodder. I want a red alox bantam and an 84mm woodsman -Tom
For an 84mm Woodsman, is that like a Bantam with saw?
Some crazy awesome stuff you guys and gal have gotten
Quote from: Poncho65 on December 21, 2016, 05:55:15 AMSome crazy awesome stuff you guys and gal have gotten The last week or so really has seen some unique snags, these Yeomans, Shuttle MC, Artisan, and the shadowy flight into the dangerous world of an alox Rover that does not exist. Inspiring stuff in the sense that I can't seem to stop browsing for treasures myself...so much work NOT getting done over here...probably need to disable internet on my work computer...but...must..find...must...buyFor today my purchase is kinda boring, I got all the bits from the SwissChamp XAVT that don't come with the regular CyberTools, some LED module batteries (Swiss of course) and some boring but needed brass rod for mods.The odd thing is that Sakwiki says the torx bit is a #6 and #8, but the seller says #6 and #7

Artisan arrived today! I mainly wanted it because it goes well with the Woodsman. (Image removed from quote.)Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
THAT CRAZY!Whats the deal? why is it sooooo expensive to ship items overseas? My secret Santa gift cost me $28 just to ship it out of USA , last years cost me $48(diff friend/country) - both 1-3 ounces over 1 pound. CRAZY! 1 pound in USA to USA usually runs around $4
Because I'm a true rebel I am posting something that is neither a SAK nor mine anymore, though I think you'll like it regardless. Today, to my surprise I got a Swisstool that was just mailed to me yesterday. anyway they seem to be a 1998 RS plus model with Kawasaki branding , but at that condition for 30€ I'll take any model. As for the ownership of the tool as I got it so early it's now in a package to my father for christmas, hope he'll like it.
