I was going to guess that they were Pioneer Harvesters.

I thought they were Electrician Pluses...

Well I've never had a Pioneer (so feel free to send me one

) but I GAVE away a electrician plus

Three layer ALOX models are the best. Even if you don't use the wood saw, it's nice just to have the added thickness as it's much more comfortable in the hand.

That's what I found with my SI (which I gave to my Dad

) the extra layer really makes it much more hand filling, without seeming overwide

When I got my first 3 layer ALOX model, which I think was the Electrician Plus, I immediately placed an order with Felinevet for the others... they are that much better! It wasn't a simple matter of "gee, these are pretty neat, I should remember to maybe order another one next time I get something." It was more like I was so frenzied I could barely dial the phone and begged Tim for at least one of each!

You've got to wonder why Vic hasn't made more 3 layer models, and also why Wenger just does the SI

Grant Lamontagne · **Reply #218 on:** March 12, 2008, 03:29:34 PM

Wenger claims they don't do it because Victorinox is doing it. Of course, they won't be doing it for much longer. When the new Swiss Military knife is decided on I imagine Wenger will drop the SI.

Victorinox doesn't make any more three layer models because it would require a redesign of more tools to fit on a 93mm frame and that's just too inconvenient. Besides, ALOX mods are still pretty new- let SOSAK members get enough of them made up for Victorinox to take note of!

Your sadly probably right about Wenger droping the SI

, but maybe Vic will develope something in the future for there Alox line's, I mean although it's only a different colouration but they are pushing the Alox 58mm's at the moment

Just get them all, that way you haven't got to worry about choosing

Leatherman123 · **Reply #233 on:** May 08, 2008, 10:22:13 PM

I really like my blue Farmer.. Anyways, is a black Pioneer a rare SAK?

If I were to have only one, I think right now it would be one of Scibeer's HA models.

I recently got a Vic Farmer, Yay! Its a great SAK one of my favs now. It got me in the mood to do a few pics of some SAKs including my Dads Rescue Tool which I nabbed for a few minutes and some obviously of the Vic Farmer...

NutSAK · **Reply #238 on:** May 10, 2008, 06:56:04 PM
