What do you pair with your Swisschamp?
on: November 25, 2015, 05:42:18 AM
Lately I've been thinking a lot about the best combos. For example the skeletool and style. Or rebar and crater. Or spirit and compact etc....

One tool that I can know I will get eventually is the swisschamp (sapphire scales :drool: ) I can see it is a great stand alone tool. What would pair up nice with it? What do you carry with your swisschamp? Wasn't sure where to post this which is why I started a new thread. Thanks for your input

actual pliers / long-nose / wire cutters / vise-grip.

There's also a CT 21 or Spirit (for the pliers, again).

I have the Swisstool on me and the Spirit in the bag.

...and yeah, I'm also thinking of getting a new Swisschamp in sapphire (and a matching CT 34 also in sapphire) just because I think they look pretty  :climber:

To me the only thing I would pair the SC with is a MT just to have the pliers if needed.  Of course you will get some duplication in tools but too much can be avoided by picking a MT that is more basic like Fuse, Kick, Blast, SOG Deluxe, etc.

I normally have a Wave to pair with my SC that I will throw in a bag or maybe jacket pocket when I leave the house.

Usually i pair it with folder. I am just used to carry more robust blade for tougher work with me. Often i add some plier based multi to go along. Swisschamp usually sees most of the work.

The SC is great to pair with MTs that have inside tools.  I also like to pair it with the MUT and OHT.  I have no problem however pairing it with my Wave ( OG and New ).  The duplication is fine in that I like the SC scissors better and the files are different.  I also prefer the SC can opener to the LM one.  The inline phillips is handy when using the pliers of the Wave to hold a nut. 

I used to have issues with tool duplication but not anymore.

Either a Leatherman Freestyle for the oho blade and decent pliers, or just a pair of 4" mini Vise-Grip pliers in my pocket. Or both...    :)

Since I don't use pliers often when at work, or out and about, the SC is doing great as a standalone right now.

I think I might try pairing it with the LM Mini Tool. The Mini really has nothing good to offer tool wise (IMHO), but does have good pliers.

Thanks for all the replys. It seems from all the answers that it would be best paired with a oho blade and a decent pair of pliers. I like the idea of the freestyle or mini or a pliers based mt with limited tool set, (kick, fuse, ppp, etc...) It is tough to pair a tool that has such a robust tool set. I really appreciate everyone's opinions but....

The nearest I have to a Swisschamp is a CT41, and I have no wishes to get a Swisschamp. However, this lives in place of a Swisschamp in one of the small SOS kits, and is paired with a BG Survival Pack (the Strata kit) in my car's glovebox - so I do have a OHO semi serrated blade, pliers, locking drivers, light, fire, compass .....

Which spyderco is that?

SS Endura with a broken lock.  Its a terrific knife but had seen a lot of use/abuse from its original owner.  It's now a slippy  ;)

I sent it in to Spyderco to see if they could fix it but they declined.

Which spyderco is that?

SS Endura with a broken lock.  Its a terrific knife but had seen a lot of use/abuse from its original owner.  It's now a slippy  ;)

I sent it in to Spyderco to see if they could fix it but they declined.
Why didn't they fix it? it's a very nice looking knife

Not sure, they sent me a letter saying it was best to retire it.  They did offer a discount on buying a knife from them but I declined and asked for my knife back.  I want to take it apart and see if I can do something.  The knife was partially serrated which were wore down so I reprofiled the blade.  I imagine being pinned and well used had something to do with it.

Very nice. I like the black champ and freestyle duo.

Thanks for all the replys. It seems from all the answers that it would be best paired with a oho blade and a decent pair of pliers. I like the idea of the freestyle or mini or a pliers based mt with limited tool set, (kick, fuse, ppp, etc...) It is tough to pair a tool that has such a robust tool set. I really appreciate everyone's opinions but....

except gene. Thanks for the pic  :cheers:

I suggested a MT like the Fuse, Kick ect for being a basic MT but I myself like the Wave as it gives me some locking blades, OHO and some duplication to the SC.  That is my almost perfect combo and if I want a better blade, I can add either my Spydrrco Delica or PM2.  It depends on what I will be doing that day or might be doing that day!  :)
