interesting knife. what is the loose tool? it kind of looks like a razor blade.
Yesterday, I stumbled across this fine beauty;(Image removed from quote.)Damn you Mike!!
That's a great SAK Ben. I wish I bought one when I had the chance.. The Safari Hunter and the ST X would make a great EDC. Mainly because its like having a Swisstool RS with a file..
Yup, I think the OH Fireman is my new favorite SAK. I also REALLY like my Victorinox WorkChamp.. It is another great SAK..

You didn't get two? I mean, why would you want to risk messing up such a fine, fine specimen by actually using it? Or worse losing it, or loaning it out to Mike (mickyd) who probably had this all planned to start with. Now if you had two of them you could use one without a care in the world. Muwahahahaha!Mike

Ben, you're gonna love that Safari Hunter! I have one with the serrated edge on the gutting blade, and one with a plain edge. I like the serrated one much better--it just makes more sense for that blade, and the knife more versatile as a whole. I hope you like those faux stag scales better than I did. Will this be your first 108mm SAK?
First of many, I predict.
I plan on carrying it with my Swisstool as I think it will make a great combo.
That SAK looks in mighty fine nick, is it new? You're not gonna have it as a show item then, its going straight into EDC is it.

Mine was just a collector's piece until I started carrying a multi. Now I pair it with my spirit when I'm camping.If it's any consolation, the Safari Hunter is typically the second most expensive 108mm, below the Mauser. I prefer it to the Mauser, actually. The Hunter may not be as collectible, but I think it's the most capable of the two three-layer 108mm SAKs.Everyone needs a GAK or Trooper, and the Solo is an excellent, lightweight knife for food prep.
Rub it in guys!
