LOL! Thanks for the support Baz! I have plans for the Greenwood ( it lives on my desk so I handle it every day) which involves real wood scales. Sparky415 had some nice oak and walnut to give away at the meet so I'm going to try and makes some nice scales.  :salute:

I finally pulled the trigger on a Swiss Champ. (Someone out there is flicking open all the tools on their Swiss Champ looking for the trigger). Should be here by the end of the week. One of the big reasons that pushed me over the edge is that three time in the past week, I've been out of the house and needed a ballpoint pen and didn't have one anywhere around. In addition, it has all the tools I like on my Craftsman plus a few more. How can I go wrong?

Congratulations!  I am assuming that you bought a Plus version (Plus scales have room for a Vic pen but standard scales do not).
Every SC I have seen for sale has come with plus scales. Do they sell it with out?

Plus scales are relatively recent. Many of my Swiss Champs do not have Plus scales. Of course, it is an easy matter to swap existing scales for Plus scales.

I think we are seeing an increase in enthusiasm for the venerable Swiss Champ! I hope it continues!

Unless a person is concerned about carrying a low profile SAK, it seems hard to go wrong with the SC.

I can fit it in the pocket watch pocket of my jeans with ease and not notice so profile isn't much issue. Is the anxiety building as you wait for it to arrive in the mail?  :climber: :mail:

I agree! I have been carrying a Swiss Champ since they first came out.

I like your use of the Lego background. It reminds me of what (I think) you and Folder Beholder used to do to entertain us with Legos and SAKs.
