Hello from Aus
on: May 28, 2011, 02:32:35 PM
Hi everyone, JCK from Australia. I'm a part of a few other forums, but thought I'd join this one, as I like Victorinox SAK, alox especially, and multitools, however I only own a leatherman wave.

here is a pic of my humble alox collection.



Also recently lost a black alox pioneer, the one with the lanyard on it, I'd been carrying it for about a year, just starting to get some nice wear marks on it, and then someone stole it  >:(

So hopefully I'll be able to pick another one up eventually.

But looking forward to reading the forums and maybe picking up a few Alox SAK's I'm after.

G'day mate.


No, It's okay! I'm Australian, so I don't sound like a smurf (although, Hugh Jackman is Australian, and he DOES sound like a smurf? so maybe there's no hard and fast rules about it)

I just drank half a cup of kangaroo blood.

Umm.

Nice Alox collection?

Thanks for the welcome guys. I do like my Alox SAKS, especially coloured ones  :drool:
Thanks for the links mulitmat, I'll try and pick up another black pioneer eventually.

Between, Knives, Torches, SAK's and Multitools I'm well and truly broke  :ahhh

I'm hoping to add a few more alox and normal cellidor scaled SAK's to my collection/user rotation and then I think I'm done.  ::)

Good to see a few other Aussies, are there many of us are on here?

I'm also more of a reader, so I might not post much.

There's a few of us.

As Australia has always gone for quality over quantity, we more or less work on a "One member per State or Territory" system, rather than the AmeroCanaEnglish method of "wave after wave"  :D

So what part of this great sandy biscuit are you from? (I believe Multi is a Banana Bender, and I'm a Cockroach/Mexican dual citizen.)

I've seen a few others about, but it seems, as a rule, our people are less internet savvy than the rest of the world (might be something to do with our unreliable and expensive ISPs!)
