If I pay five figures for something, it better have wings or a foundation!

Barry, the larger one is a Hohner Blues Harp. I have one of those, so I can say that the little one is a tiny keychain job.

Hello everyone,

Well, I had rationalized that I wasn't going to get a Swisschamp. Once I had made up my mind, a sale came up and I had to be one weekend available on-call at work so, I decided to burn that overtime in the Swisschamp.
Correct, not my fault. It was the universe conspiring.

So. I thought it would probably be colectionism.
After having it home... Nope, this is going to be one of my main EDCs

Feels pretty big but very usable. No problems at all. I carry a side bag so carrying it is no problem, I carry a Leatherman Bond at times abd this is not much different.

What can I say? Girl, you FAT. You fat and GORGEUS.
The best Victorinox if you can carry it. Except for the chisel, small flat screwdriver and the fishy-tool-thing, all uses are golden and I love them. Those three uses can come in handy on ocassion.

It's been my EDC for the last week and the only downside is that I'm leaving home my Tinker Deluxe now :_ (


Seems like I can't upload an image from my phone, will tey to post the Swisschamp later.

Totally agree. It will be a poke-that-difficult-to-reach thing. Same as the toothpick but bigger and made of steel : D

Shamelessly reposting my photo but it felt right — here’s a pic of my recently purchased second hand champ (I’ve bought a brand new Swisschamp, but saw a nice deal potential the same day - post-1991 champ missID’d by the seller as a champion, good start for some haggling - jumped on it immediately and returned the new one). As I’m fortunate to have an official Victorinox store or two in my city, I could replace the red scales with brand new black ones cheaply at one of those.
