What's your latest SAK?

[Reinier]

Just got a couple of Spartans with flag design and colors for Germany. Pretty cool looking.

Today a small package arrived 
It contained:
           Wenger silver Money clip;
           Wenger red Patriot with Wenger logo
           Victorinox green Money clip with Eddie Bauer logo. I search Google for such green money clips, but didn't find any. Are they so rare?
Pics will follow soon

Enjoy

I'm a 74mm fan and I really like the green money clip

I have that one too but as you can tell with this white one my photo skills that day were not very good. Going to retake ASAP.

How about a Blue Alox money clip? Have you seen what I scored awhile back.

Still, those photos are better than mine

That's gorgeous

Amazing to see the difference between this and a 2007 (wenger) soldier.

Here is a better photo of my newest SAK, a red Germany flag Spartan. These really are nice. Someone should order some nicely designed US State flag versions.

and a very good year to be born it was.    Thanks for saving me from buying it.

Nice!
I bought mine during a trip to Germany, so in my case those are actual German souvenirs That's why my wife allowed me to buy them

More pics to come in seperate threads...

A double pack with a Classic(my first ever) and a 91mil Tinker.Silly price on Amazon,just couldn't(wouldn't) say no

[Reinier]

One of my CyberTools has been upgraded with fresh onyx scales (Thanks Neil!). So it's kinda like my latest SAK, sort of
I also gave all tools a mirror polish.







I thought onyx would be more like translucent black, not reddish brown 

[frugalscotty]

The onyx scales I have seen are more of a charcoal gray (translucent). I've never seen any quite like those in your photo.

[stressmaster5000]

I think I saw somewhere about another color called "Smoke" and some are confusing it with Onyx.

In that case, Neil is confusing it with onyx

By the way, I quite like my "brownyx" scales I don't have any real onyx ones so I can't compare them.

It might be "Translucent Brown" instead of Smoke. But I can't find where I saw that at the moment.

My latest SAK is a DAK from Reinier .                 The other one is not exactly Swiss .  But not a bad 91mm Alox Huntsman .    Vic should make something like this.

[Gareth]

I know it's always hard to tell from pics on a computer screen, but that 'Huntsman' looks very good indeed.   Where did you get it from?

I got it from ebay.   Says stainless steel on the blade.   All the tools are very close copies of Vic  except for the corkscrew is a little different.   That's all I know about it

[Threeme2189]

I really can't tell the difference between that blue tool and Swiss made tools...
That's a good copy!

[HawkeyX]

Even looks the the good vic can opener. Nice copy.

Here's my latest this week - Excelsior. Although it will just go in the collection I do dig the feel of it in the hand. A nice slim pocketknife.

There appears to be two different shades out there.  Knives with them on are marked as onyx or onyx   No way to tell unless you get to hold them.



Your CT is looking very nice Reinier  

[Reinier]

Thanks Neil
So... no I want the other shade as well...

[Neil]

The pulls I have on EDCS at the moment are the more grey version.  I'm hoping to get hold of some new brownish ones next week but I've no idea how many I'll be able to get as they haven't been made for sometime

I didn't know that there was the two different shades out there.  I gotta say I much prefer the more reddish one, looks excellent on that Cybertool.

Great pic Hawkeye.  I've got the very similar Pocket Pal and I absolutely agree that it makes for a very nice little pen knife. 

[Reinier]

Thanks Gareth
I'm starting to really like the reddish onyx. It looks really good compared to ruby

[New_World]
