It wouldn't be the internet without people complaining.

Been using it as a scribe for years. It does a good job at descaling fish too.

That's a good video I hadn't seen.  I loke how it is loosely based on the tool use guide that comes with the champ.   :salute:

Does it not have sound or is it just me?  :think:

I really like the video, I wish though that it was in HD.  :angel:

I use the fish scaler all the time as a ruler.  I especially like how it has metric on one side and English on the other.  I also use it as a small fork for olives and pickles (to take them out of a jar).  It also makes a great poke for things you might not want to touch with your hands or simple can't reach.

One of the most useful ideas I came up with was to run a strong magnet over it about 50 strokes and magnetize it.  This is really handy for when you are working on something and drop a screw into a hard to reach spot (like a computer case).  It is just long enough to reach and attract little screws and such.

It also works well for unbending staples so they can be removed from documents without damaging them.

It can also remove small nails from walls (especially drywall).

It is actually one of my most used tools, except I have never used it on fish in any way, shape, or form.

I enjoyed the video a lot.
It contains Swisschamp's and Cybertool's tools, but not Swisschamp XLT's additional. They think that it is only for collectors, a big mistake.
