Cool climbers all..
In my head a small climber with LNF is maybe the ultimate urban EDC. The only advantage I have been able to notice with a 91 vs 84 is grip. With my meat hooks, the bigger the handle the easier some of the harder tasks are. 100mm is actually easiest for me to control in various cuts.

I darkened my tools and added ++ scales including a nail file on this one. [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ] [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ]

Great mod (pun intended)! You should post it here, too:

My original Climber and this flattened out roll of duct tape that jumped out of the drawer. Quite possibly one of my most carried SAK's.

Got to watch for those springing duct tapes. You are lucky it didn't go for your throat. Might as well post a Climber photo. Trumpet vine flowers are all gone now. Might be worth showing again. Best wishes. G

It just so happens I have my Climber in my pocket today. Not sure why, I actually don't carry a Climber terribly often. Just got a wild hair I suppose.

Also included - the way I carry duct tape. I carry just a few yards wrapped around an old library card.

Hello!

Am I welcome in the climber club?

The one on the left started my love for SAKs back in 2001 - 2003 when I found it on the school playground when I was in junior high. I dated it between 1992 and 2001 but I cannot be certain.
The one on the right is a 3.3703 Climber in nylon scales, gifted to me in 2014 by my girlfriend at the time (now she's my wife). As it has a tremendous sentimental value for me, it mostly stays in his original box.

I also bought myself this year a Victorinox Altimeter 1.3705.AT which has been exhibited in a store since 2005. Does it count as a Climber?

It has been a while since I posted a Climber photo. In fact I had forgotten that I ever posted one here. Those are some nice Climbers, Peski. I like the nylon scales on the right-hand one, too. Best wishes. Gary

Thank you Gary! I also like the nylon scales very much. Feels more grippy in my hand. I am looking to buy another one, to replace the 1986 Ranger on my desk

I have a StaGlo- love that scizzors

Blunt Object · **Reply #912 on:** January 08, 2024, 09:08:25 PM

My most carried SAK until I went Alox.

Edit: added picture

IMR4198 · **Reply #913 on:** January 08, 2024, 09:15:36 PM

Love the climber. That one looks like it has been used regularly. Seems to be black, but I could be wrong. Take them out and carry them, I say. Best wishes. G

Blunt Object · **Reply #914 on:** January 08, 2024, 09:37:23 PM

Black, but it does look kinda brown, or purple, or whatever. My photography skills are nonexistent, I'm glad if I manage to get something in focus... The reason I went Alox is because the cellidor gets dented.

I didn't have to get out a shovel to dig out the Climber Club. I did have to take a broom to sweep off some of the leaves and dirt. How about a meeting of the Climbers for today? Best wishes. Gary

Used my brass Climber to free some GITD keyring attachments from their Jiffy-Bag prison

I work in an office and normally carry a Sportsman or my Alox cadet because they are smaller and fit well in my pocket. BUT if I am goin on a hike, or walking around a big city and taking in the sites , I always throw my Stayglow Climber in my backpack . It has a bit more options to it .

Jeffjeeptj · **Reply #923 on:** April 05, 2024, 05:03:53 AM

I’d like to join. Just got this in the mail. Had to replace one of the scales and added a pin, the small eyeglass screwdriver and the Vic “lanyard”. Rest of this Climber was nice and clean, sharp, and all tools pivoted as expected. Based on the scissors rivet, it looks to be between 1991 and 2007. The rear scale that came with it did not have a pin hole.
