Nice Evo-Grip.  How much is overpaid?  Of course, you don't have to say.  Best wishes.  G

Guy had a case full of $1K Buck custom Shop knives. So the evogrip was $65. But I always wanted to add a wenger to the collection.

Had to wait to get home.

Thank you, Thank you. thank you’

Super nice


I like the grip scales! 

I was hoping it was YELLOW, yet yellow likely was a Victorinox option.

I almost obtained 17 (With cork screw) 8 weeks ago. Seller took it down shortly after listing.  Could only say sorry not available.

Had not seen a Wenger DELMONT series only heard about.
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

He had more. Way more. Including the 120MM Wengers. Let me know if I need to go snap a photo of the case next weekend. I thought of it at the time. And spaced. Mans basically took any retirement and turned it into one heck of a lawnmower repair /sporting good store.

It is your find, keep that a secret.

But, yes it would be cool to see the display.

I only saw an occasional store selling a few WENGER MODELS.  Same for Victorinox, the MacGYVER was on TV and VICs started to be on peg boards everywhere’s.

Yes there were yellow Wengers.  I am still kicking myself for not buying one years ago.

Shame I bought a shotgun today, otherwise I would have cleared him out. Collection is coming along.

Just picked up this new to me Paladin PT-510. I regretted not picking one up years ago. This picture is after a deep cleaning and replacement of broken and damaged blade and flat driver. This one had to be the nastiest dirty used tool I have ever picked up. So happy SOGs are so easy to take down and put back together. Cheers everyone and hope you all are having a great Labor Day Weekend!

One advantage of having a kid who works at the movie theater,, when they have something you REALLY WANT, he’ll get it for you! Needless to say the Mrs really likes all movies to do with Ed and Lorraine Warren, (Annabelle, the nun, the conjuring) and when she saw this popcorn tin she went nuts, needless to say it’s on my dresser now :facepalm:

This is a 3-inch Palmgren cross slide vise. I wanted a cross slide vise for a while, but I couldn't justify the price  against the actual very low need.  Then I bought this one in an online auction at a price I could justify.

It needs cleaning, but all the parts seem to be there and work as expected.  I plan to mount it on a drill press for now.

I just picked up a new Rebar to replace my list Vic Spirit.
I knew my wife was a keeper when she transitioned from calling it a knife thingy to a multi-tool.

A set of minuscule titanium picks that I found on Ebay:



I am kind of obsessed with miniaturization - possibly I'm secretly Japanese - and find tiny tools hard to resist. I'm not sure what use, if any, I'll find for these. But I'll have fun trying to think of something.

OUCH! I took the dogs out and on the way back in the house I got attacked, at first I showed the Mrs and kid and they thought I just scratched it, but about 3min later I asked the kid to take a pic to show me and well, I got stung! The last time I got stung was like back in 06, I was mowing the lawn and thought I hit something with the mower and it hit me in the legs since I was wearing shorts, but then I got hit again and again and again, I was like what the heck, but then I backed the mower to find out there was a little hole in the ground and sure enough a bunch of bees swarming around, so I parked the mower overtop, then put a strap on the bar to keep it running and just walked away as the Mrs brought a drink out asking, I had to get a spray and later that night I sprayed the hole to find out the next morning there were no bee’s, but idk where this guy came from, but ouch!

 :like:  A IZULA is a great knife. 

Is yours the S35VN version?

I have  the BO 1095 and carried it like for ever attached to my pack strap when out in the wild and also had a xtra sheath as a neck knife when camp was setup. I think I even slept with it on.

I since have added handles as my tracking days are behind me n

The Izula is a great little fixie.  Barely noticeable when carrying but slices beautifully.
