Longtime lurker and SAK lover
on: July 20, 2013, 01:40:35 AM
Hello to all. I've been lurking here for some time, drooling at pictures of multi-tools and custom-made and modified pieces, but finally decided to join in the discussions. I'm a tool and knife user and lover in general, but I have a special appreciation and obsession with Swiss Army Knives, especially Victorinox. I'm a musician and repair/build instruments and dabble in whittling and carving. I've posted a few times in the Swiss Forum, but figured I would introduce myself officially here. I'm in Indiana and always on the hunt for SAKs. Attached are pictures of just about all of my collection of SAKs (missing 1/2 a dozen or so that I've acquired since). I should take a picture of my Multi-Tools as well, but here is a taste. Also, if anyone has an '85 Victorinox Soldier in good shape they'd be willing to let go of, please let me know! Thanks!
