Does the other side of the can opener have a +PAT?  If so, '71 and before  :cheers:

No it is blank, which is odd considering the other features on this. It most closely resembles to type D on http://www.sakwiki.com/tiki-index.php?page=Can+Opener which is late 80s through early 90s.

Then I'd say 72 0r 73 or possibly early 74  :cheers:

Thanks. That means it had 40 years pocket time. It'll be nice to get it cleaned and patched up so it can have a second life

2015 Blue Cadet today. I love the slim profile for a day suited and booted.

I have a new and unused 2015 steel blue cadet if you have another coloured cadet or bantam to trade?

It’s the standard silver Bantam with red shield that gets the most pocket time for me. £16.33 on Amazon today!

I'd buy the blue one off you for a decent price - as long as it's not 75 euros or whatever it was the last time I saw one on ebay...

Or maybe you'd like a Nespresso pioneer! I have 2 of those from last year.

Thanks!

Keep an eye on eBay.  Apprentices come up for sale pretty often.

Or you could make one by swapping the corkscrew on a Waiter for a Phillips.  Just buy a Tinker or some other Phillips model with a broken blade for a few bucks and use it as a donor.

I wasn't expecting these until later in the week, but they showed up today!  Here are my latest 84mm acquisitions... An old "Victoria"-marked Small Tinker and... *swoon* an Artisan (aka Fieldmaster Small).  Both of them have the oldschool square Phillips with file, and interestingly neither one has a keyring attachment.

These little guys are kind of gritty, so they'll get a good bath and oiling this evening.  Here are some pics of the Small Tinker.  Note that it has no scale tools.

And here's the Artisan.  I've been hunting one for a while and managed to snag this one when it popped up on eBay.

LOVE this knife!  I can't tell if this is the nickel silver tweezers or the aluminum.  Anyone?

Excellent mail call this morning.  This is the oldest Salesman I’ve seen yet.  Hoffritz marked, small clip point blade, “Pat.” marked can opener, single spring scissors, and square Phillips with file.  I now have in my collection Salesmen with three different kinds of Phillips drivers: square with file, square no file, and round.

Sharp eyes! It's a mod I did using Waiters and Phillips harvested from Tinkers with mangled top side tools. Learned how to peen rivets in the process.

Thanks

Sportsman without keyring today.

What always surprises me with this SAK is that I miss the keyring. Every time. The key ring seems to divide opinion but I guess I can only conclude I worry without one. :think:

Alox Sentry (2071 r+ according to the Wiki). Almost disappears in the pocket with its oval shape and thinness.



A superb example of what a "Gentleman's Knife" should be.
