I post it here.

http://www.sakwiki.com/tiki-index.php?page=Fly+Fisherman

 In this page has mentioned that Fly Fisherman doesnt have scale tools but it actually has Tweezer on scale but not Toothpick, you can also see tweezers on that black scale Fly Fisherman but there isnt mention that these contains any scale tools

Thanks for the info Antti  - Page updated
It seems that scale tools were not always present - eg see spec main image on page - so I commented thus
I also juggled the page around a little

Let me know if it is OK

It's been a few days since the sakwiki moved over to the new server, I take it everything is working ok?

oops I thought I used a current backup of the database... is it possible it got edited during the move? Hopefully you can redo the edit, sorry.

Some tiny edits I made a couple of days ago are gone too. Totally no big deal but I thought I'd mention it.

sorry... I was fighting to get it to work properly, it's possible I accidentally used an older copy of the database that was from the previous attempt.

I'm terrified of the forum, that's going to be a draining move... database is HUGE.

Are you putting the forum in read only mode for a while?
Good luck with the move :)

when it happens, offline/maintenance. I'm doing my best to prepare, but it's a lot of data to copy from one site to the other...

thanks, I can probably check the old site database, but I've still got some more pressing work to do first.

Gallery is migrated, and doesn't work properly  :-\

Sort of off topic but it is 91mm and SAKWiki related  - Is it possible to get separate pages for the Cybertools?
It’s slightly odd when things like the SwissChamp page references the 41/L but the link goes to the page for all Cybertools. 
Sorry I know this would create a bit of work clearing up the related links.
I did not split the pages
  • But made it a bit more obvious/clearer that the page contains the four models of the Cybertool family
  • I also cleaned up the move from 29, 34,41 to S, M, L - So hopefully that is much clearer
  • And also fixed the in page hotlinks - Which I am very happy about
Been trying to work that last one out for a year!! - The Tiki software cannot cope with these links if they contain a number   :twak:

Been doing a little tidying up of the SMKW knife series pages
I have a question for y'all

The four models: Bass, Deer, Eagle, Turkey - Appear in the main 91mm model listing  page
https://sakwiki.com/Victorinox+91mm

As they are not regular models - I think they should not be there!!

So I am proposing to remove them - But to put in a link to the series page
https://sakwiki.com/tiki-index.php?page=Victorinox+SMKW+Wildlife+Series
on the main 91mm page.

They also appear in the appropriate 2,3,4 layer pages - I propose to leave them there

Thoughts? ???

Leave them as they are.
40% of alox models in SAKWiki also isn't regular models, Master Gardener and Master Electrician also are special runs. Should they be removed too?

Huntsman, you are doing a huge work in SAKWiki, no doubt, but please, don't make such extreme deleting

Yep I am often beavering away trying to make the Wiki:
  • More up to date
  • More accurate
  • Easier to use
  • And more concise
But don't worry - no information ever, ever, ever gets deleted   :salute:
Just sometimes re-organised a little !  :)

And in this case if I had done what I proposed:
The only change would be that a link to the family page would replace the link to the individual pages in the main 91mm page
So IMHO not a very extreme change !!    :think:

My thoughts/logic for these models was that they made for a single dealer in a single country
- And that the main 91mm page should just feature standard, globally available, Vic models
So yes I was thinking the Master Elec and G should also be presented in the Wiki in the same way !

However I did not know that nearly half the 93mm models were also specials
And for sure we do have some Swiss Bianco specials in the various pages
So I am happy to leave it all as is!

PS. I am going to send you both a PM about some other changes a while ago !

You can do anything you want.
I feel myself little bit tired from these endless discussions.
The main issue (IMO) - you doesn't take into consideration any opinion except your own.

I'm not going anymore reply in this thread either make any changes in SAKWiki.
Sorry for this, but it became senseless.
Good luck

Hey folks,

Sometimes pictures in the Wiki pages get screwed up - eg Disappear completely, or go tiny
This seems to happen for a few reasons: Eg
Software changes, the way the page is formatted, or links to other websites which become broken.
This recently, (or maybe even a while ago :o ),  happened to the Pen and Battle Series pages.

If anyone finds broken pictures - Please let us know here so we can fix them.
This is probably a better route to fix than the 'Contact Us' link in the Wiki. Although that should work too, eventually. 
The Pen page is fixed, the Battle Series pages fixes are in progress!
The Blades page also needs to be fixed and I hope to get onto that sometime soon.

I know :D

I tried some different angles and shots, but the showroom lights were causing a glare on the glass and by then the receptionist started raising an eyebrow. :rofl:

^^^ Thank you - Corrected !!

Re the photo - Apologies I did not mean to be rude and I guessed that was the reason ie Showroom shot - maybe with glass in the way etc etc

Funny re the receptionist ...... and the crazy things we do to get MT shots
- Once I tried to take a photo of a cop with a LM on his belt - He was not too keen !!

No apologies needed H.!
No offense was taken at all. I just had the same thought about it, which is why I agreed in the first place :rofl:

We're all good :cheers:

I wonder how common the Merc version is and if it's worth trying to presuade the boss into giving me a discount :D
I visit the store a few times a year since it's a client of the company I work for.
