I don't like the compass in the Wenger. It just seems to take up so much room.
There is only one BIG SAK and that is the Mike Horn Ranger Wenger Giant
Do you mean the Tool Chest or Toll Chest Plus? If the former, that's a good choice. The later adds the compass which is rather poor and takes up a lot of space. Only problem is the Tool Chest (also known as the Car Driver Pro) is long discontinued and hard to find.
Gene,you can't go wrong with a SwissChamp
Gods.. wrong thread.. soz... Well.. since I already posted here by mistake.. get a Swisschamp. Or a CT 41. The XLT sounds nice too, but I never saw one and I'd imagine it's a brick...
I wanted to like the swisschamp XLT. I bought one, but that one layer really flared up my OCD so much I couldn't take it anymore and sold it. Its the pruner / electrician blade layer. The blades have pivot holes larger than the pin stock and I can feel them move in and out when full opened. I could have pretended that was ok, but the tool on the backside of that layer was a total fudge and doesn't close all the way or sit properly compared to has it fits on a normal swiss champ. Unless I got a dud, but from pics on line they all appeared to be that way.I know Im overly picky but it bugged me. I think the big SAK I want to hunt down next to try will be a workchamp XL. That one will fill my craving I think for a big Vic.
On the Wenger side, I think the S557 is the sweet spot unless you're a cyclist. The the Large Mountain Bike is the ticket. Excellent chain breaker!
OK! Back at my computer. Wenger on the left, Victorinox on the right.
I'm amazed that noone has said BUY BOTH yet...
Don't buy either!If you want a big SAK,then purchase the Workchamp.
