A strange thing happened... Talking about SAK's & I started seeing ones with all this different stuff on em. It was like a tractor beam... So I shopped & shopped till I found one at the best price possible. While she may not be happy about it. She is after all a woman, & a bargain is a bargain no matter what you're buying. :D

We have developed a system... When I get into these buying phases. She pretty well lets me get what I want to a point. My cue is when she says... I'm not going to B*tch at you... That's when I know play time is on hiatus.

Oh Dale...

Rarely have I encountered someone who got the SAK bug as badly or as quickly as you.

I recommend going down to Walmart and buying something...

Pssst...Walmart usually has Super Tinkers and Classics, and sometimes Hikers or Campers.   :pok:

Super Tinkers and Classics at Walmart, and at Target I see Tinkers, Campers, Climbers, and the occasional Huntsman.  Dick's Sporting Goods carries Wengers still.  Not that I'd want to be an enabler or anything.....  :angel:

They are nice to look at but some people find then uncomfortable when using the tools (apart from the pliers). Some later models come with covers for the sprockets.

I'd image if a person had big hands or the tool slipped while working with it. Dragging your hand across those sprockets would change a persons opinion of them rather quickly.

Since joining here. It is interesting to see the variations of tools SAK puts out. Thinking of SAKs previously I always thought of the 91 mm series.

There are some cool little SAKs 58mm with really neat tools on board like the spatula and "orange peeler".

To be of assistance to my fellow forum goers... I found this gentleman in Ebay. He seems to clearing out his stock of SAK's. I have no affiliation with this fella, apart from I bought my champ from him. He's taking best offers if anyone wants to take a peek. Mod's if I stepped out of line with posting the Ebay link .. apologies
