As a watch and SAK collector, I'll be glad to hear if Little Tinker comes across another spare one :D

These little friends just arrived!  This always adds a bit of Sunshine to my day.  Farmer, Pioneer and Cadet.  Of course there is a back story here.

If he had, I would not be back in the states.  But he gave me my first SAK.  Any guesses what it was?

Absolutely a soldier.  Had the 80 stamp on the blade.  Imagine my shock that as an American 16 year old kid finding out that "real" Swiss Army Knives were not red nor plastic. And I didn't know at the time what Wenger was.  All I knew was Vic.  The power of marketing... That began my fascination with Alox.

Another used but in good condition Ranger... Seems this one wasn't used too much except for the blade and corkscrew... scales had light scratches from pocket carry... A little polishing is all it took...

I'm now in the eco scales club.  I think that the eco line is very underrated. Sure I like the Cellidor but Vinyl can also be practical.  Is it a problem that I want as many SAKs I can get my hands on? I can't get enough.

Only you can decide if it's a problem, but at least here you'll not be alone  :D
