Here is my collection of recent acquisitions, including Victorinox knife sharpner, nail clippers and a Wenger SI  :)  :cheers:

Congrats, nice purchase

Have you already tried that sharpener? If so - do you like it? Have one myself, but haven't used it yet.

Thanks  :)

Yeah I have used it a few times on some of my older Knives, the main rod part is reallly good, but I am not sure about the edge sharpener just yet as it's not got things back to factory sharpness.

Perhaps I need to put it through for longer. I am guessing that it works and It's just a technique that I will need to learn.

I've got the sharpener and the large sharpening rod works really well. Like you, I'm not really sure about the edge sharpener. It might do well for a quick touch up but I'm never impressed by it's sharpness.

Mactire404..... I found it in eBay... I don't know any store where you can buy it.

It's really hard to get one affordable.

Once I said I would only buy Aloxes ...
then I found those :

Climber from around 1985
  • blade stamps give a 1974-1986 range
  • grooved corkscrew, no hook
  • 90° stop on the flat screwdriver and the sewing eye on the reamer indicate 1985+

Bijoux from somewhere around 1960:
  • blade stamps give a 1952-1970 range
  • scissors are interesting, they have the 1970's old shape BUT a "V" leaf spring that should be somewhere around 1975... (has the spring been replaced ? maybe...)
  • nickel silver shield
  • tweezers have the nickel silver head from pre-1957.

I don't want to derail the thread, so I'll leave it with this quick reply:
- I carry the Victorinox sharpener as a backup. It's slim and affordable and gives you a working edge.
- Alternatively I carry Fallkniven DC4 or DC3. They get a knife really sharp and can reprofile up to some extent.
- At home I use a Ruixen Pro (Chinese Edge Pro Professional) for a perfect edge.

I got a '61-'68 Fieldmaster in the mail.  Discovered it had a broken/missing portion of the liner on the backside resulting in the Philips not locking in place.   I'm planning on sending it back as I do not wish to have any damaged SAKs in El collection.  Does anyone have any interest in this before I send it back?  You can PM me if so.    :cheers:

Once I said I would only buy Aloxes ...
then I found those :

Climber from around 1985
  • blade stamps give a 1974-1986 range
  • grooved corkscrew, no hook
  • 90° stop on the flat screwdriver and the sewing eye on the reamer indicate 1985+

Bijoux from somewhere around 1960:
  • blade stamps give a 1952-1970 range
  • scissors are interesting, they have the 1970's old shape BUT a "V" leaf spring that should be somewhere around 1975... (has the spring been replaced ? maybe...)
  • nickel silver shield
  • tweezers have the nickel silver head from pre-1957.

Fresh delivery from Canada this morning! My BSA Tinker arrived :woohoo:

It's a 91mm,it's got the round Phillips with the can key ( :woohoo: )

It's also gumed up,with some damage to the blades,and seriously matted scales :ahhh

Let the clean up begin!

Hot soapy bath? Check!
WD40 soak? Check!
Dental flossed back springs? Check!
Resharpened blades? Check!
Scales polished up with Brasso and Pledge? Check!!
Judgemental skelington? Check...



The boys are a bit confused by the can key Phillips though!


Cool  :cheers:
