I like old SAKs, so to me my coolest is between an early 1940s 84mm Huntsman and this:

Lots of cool looking SAKs out there....here are a few that I think are cool.

If you are into semi precious stones...

If you are into Tiffany...

If you are into BIG...

If you are into Porsche...

If you love the old design, but want a limited sort of piece...

If you are into Swiss fire arms...

If you are a geek...

If you are into history...

Some very nice pictures.

I need some of those "semi precious stone" scaled saks. I'd really like them in 84mm.

Pretty hard to find a SAK that's not cool. This is going to be a good thread.
oh they exist

Hey guys- I see that this one has been announced already, but here are a couple of my pics:

Frankly I think these are excellent, and I can't wait to try them out. Like the New Rangers, the shield is the lock release mechanism. I'll be talking to Wenger CEO Peter Hug about them for a formal presentation tomorrow, and I have a few more pics now, but these are just to warm you up a bit.

There are three different models, but basically these have all been designed by Uli Steck, an extreme mountain climber. You really have to see them in person to appreciate them- I think they are the most exciting thing I've seen all day!

I hope you gave Felinevet Tim the heads up on this baby

That is funny... but Titanium, 85mm w/bitdriver in handle, 85mm one-handed locking blade... that is some pretty cool stuff. I'm sure we'll be able to talk them into finding another blade for this frame if we come up with a cool name for it.

Here's to hoping I can get a couple below retail, and Neil can mod one.

They were made through Victorinox by a jeweler in Florida; the run consisted of about twenty varieties, I think, all with different scales. Because they were hand-crafted, the price on them were too high for most to pay, so they just sat there before a knife dealer got them... and until I swooped them up upon seeing them.

As far as I know, only one run was made (perhaps 100 knives total, was the suggestion of the dealer), so very few numbers actually exist; I have yet to see any of the missing pieces from that series. IIRC, they were only made in the 58mm variety by that jeweler, though I have seen factory and custom 84mm and 91mm stone and horn and bone scaled pieces.

Hi,

I only have three SAKs at the moment, but more to come I am sure.

My new interest has been sparked by this one. That I recently acquired. It is a cross over item for me, Victorinox and Festool. II have a custom woodworking business and Festool is my favorite tool brand. I am in the US and this came out a couple years ago , but was never offered in the US. Though it is probably a fairly typical promo item I think it is cool because it is actually done in Festools midnight blue tool color , not a standard color with the company logo simply added. It is a 91mm I am not sure which model off hand.

That is just beyond cool. I need an old-school Soldier or Farmer.

A Farmer would be very cool, but this one has a lot of "swell" to the stag inlays. A three-layer SAK would be too thick w/these particular scales, but is just right for a two-layer. They could just as easily be made without the swell, though.

A couple of cool SAK mods I own, though not of my creation;

Blue Scibeer Farmer plus scissors.

Pink 58mm Vic with 'unique' tool selection by Neil.

Blue Farmer awesomeness (with scissors!)

Pink 58mm: It's a shame it's not a three layer minichamp--never know when you're gonna need scissors.
