Pulled this package from the jaws of customs today.

Good thing nobody opened it, or they'd probably "confiscate".

Anyway, Tim will testify to just what a picky customer I am. There was maybe a thousand emails exchanged prior to the eventual purchase. Responses were always quick and polite. Not to mention there's no way I'd get my hands on a Swissgrip without his assistance. Ahem, excuse me, SWISSGRIP!!1!

All in all, a perfect transaction.

P.S. Does anybody know how to attach the lanyard to my flashlight?

There's a little hole in the black base.

I know where the hole is, just have no clue what to do with it.

Neil · **Reply #3 on:** July 17, 2008, 01:43:55 PM

Its the same as on camera's, phones and stuff.

Wow, that was counter-intuitive. $:-\$

Does work, though. Thanks!

now u only have to find some special thin paracord and do some cool stiched thing thru that hole

Rodion · **Reply #6 on:** July 17, 2008, 02:06:18 PM

I have some 24 meters of black paracord, but no experience with working it. That's bad.

P.S. We're off topic. Add "Tim rocks!" at the end of each post.

Tim rocks!

Neil · **Reply #7 on:** July 17, 2008, 02:09:21 PM

I need to get some smaller cord. Para cord is all very well but it tends to look a bit chunky on my little SAKs

Back on topic. Its true, Tim rules

Serrations are evil, EVIL I tell's ya

Tarrodemierda · **Reply #27 on:** August 20, 2008, 12:26:36 AM

well....maybe ill even make the small cross logo on scales look like inverted then

serrations do so good rippin thru boxes,ropes etc,thats why i dig em.since i tend to carry a fixed plain edge for whittling and other finer tasks and use serrations for the ugly tasks

Neil · **Reply #28 on:** August 20, 2008, 01:32:50 AM

So your going to put a serrated blade form an 85mm Wenger into a 93mm alox Victorinox frame

or am I missing something?

It might be easier to get the chainsaw file out and put serrations into the Vic. blade you've already got there. Just a thought

Can't wait to see what you put together either way

Neil

Tarrodemierda · **Reply #29 on:** August 20, 2008, 01:37:06 AM

yep thats what i thought id do.

those self serrateds arent so clean and affective as factory made ones IMO

and id like to make this one,as its my first Swiss Mod,nice looking to stand the criticism better from other sosak members
