I'll make it simple: it's too tight. I cannot get it out with my bare hands, no matter how many fingernails are lost in the process. It simply isn't meant to come out. Granted, SAK tweezers make the job doable (if not enjoyable), but I still fail to see why Victorinox chose to make the awl on its knives so frigging unattainable.Disclaimer: only have experience with an old and dirty Atlas, a brand new Atlas and a thoroughly polluted Camper. Time will tell if the awl loosens up on my new one.
ringzero,I think we must just have girly fingers and nails or something, because I have more than just a few Vic SAKs with awls, and they're all consistently requiring a lot of fingernail force. Not a big deal, but it's just an observation.
It's true - I ate them.

Where've you been? I think the Kick is the only one without 'one at a time' tool selection now. I do quite like that though....
