(Offer a Spirit with scissors as a prize and I might...) Maybe want to stick with the 111mm.I voted for the Signal, but I like it and it hasn't gotten a lot of attention the last few months. I think you're right though. Not many of us have a Signal, or at least haven't made it known if anyone else does. There may be enough of us though.

Can't remember where it was asked (will have to dig it up maybe) but the Wave/Charge scissors can replace the large bit driver.It is tight but the handles can close and be locked.Removing the blade safety lock should make more room and allow the phillips to fit in as well if wanted.

I'm planning to put a Wave scissors inside. I will document and take pics when it works. There was a discussion in the Mod section a while ago but we never reached a conclusive answer. If the Wave scissors mod have been done, I missed that thread...I am also going to copy what Monrogue has done by adding the Wave file. I am tempted to see if a Wave straight edge blade will fit. Cheers,Pete

Cheers,PeteI believe Colt1911 put in a Wave blade.Sent from my SM-G920R4 using TapatalkThe Wave blade can work with the pivot but the symmetrical grind rubs the awl a little more.If it was me I would replace or fix the awl.Can opener out and cut down ST300 awl in maybe.
Awesome mod!!
Update Signal Plus with S30v blade , SAK Scissor/Awl , Saw/file bit driver , mini bit driver
Quote from: Obi1shinobee on October 07, 2016, 03:39:13 AMUpdate Signal Plus with S30v blade , SAK Scissor/Awl , Saw/file bit driver , mini bit driverMmm, I do like that.Does the blade fit and work seamlessly?I will see what options are available for inside tools once the Signal arrives. Zoid: I agree dump the opener and leave or mod the awl. Cheers,Pete
Dump nothing , just add more

Yeah so it looks awkward using the outer part of the blade when you need plain edge.

Quote from: Syncop8r on October 07, 2016, 10:42:59 PMYeah so it looks awkward using the outer part of the blade when you need plain edge.True,But my guess is that it makes it easier to perform precise cutting with the tip, while you can stil cut cordage with the serrations.To me it looks like the most logical setup, although the serrated part could have been shorter IMHO.
