I think the Pruner is my favourite Alox... Farmers are too bulky, Pioneers are 50% useless (awl & can opener? No thanks) but the Pruner gives you a scary blade that you just don't see on many Vics.
I also like the absence of keyring.

Agree that blade is great. Again disagree about pioneer :) I like awl, one of the most used tools for me. Again can opener does some philips jobs etc. I think pioneer has best awl that used in this type of tools.

But that is great that we have different opinions. And different options. One thing I have noticed, if I only have blades I use those to tasks not ment. So openers and awl will save my blades from misuse.

Whoops, my mistake - I said Pruner when I meant Rancher. I also find 2 blades too minimalist.

Day 14. I think? I'm losing track here...

Bit off more than he could chew, so the Spirit made the extraction. (No dinosaurs were harmed in the making of these photos.)





Also, congrats to Temo!

Day 14

Opened a can of cashews. The Spirit's pliers are good for picking up / grabbing fine items like the seal on this can. My fingers could find no purchase. You can see some lonely and jealous multi-tools in the background there...

May it be as the Pattern has chosen.

Day 13

I too find myself not using the Spirit enough to really warrant a month of pictures (this is why I carry a much smaller and lighter tool normally). But I would like to address these holes here, I know, they are for the corkscrew, but seriously? The corkscrew only? Why did they bother? I saw the topic in the Mod-squad about the carry-loop but why is there no more official uses for these? An carry solution using them? A bit driver? Anything really, it seems like some engineer at Victorinox had a good idea but then nobody wanted to make anything more out of it.

(Image removed from quote.)

Agree.  :tu:

I was thinking (in another thread  :think:) that someone could come up with a detachable clip that would fit that spot, it wouldn't be too difficult for some of the modders here. It might take some trial and error fabricating to get it right, and would have to be bent in a way that it would be tight to the side of the handle, but it looks like it could be done to me...  ???

Day 14

More tool shots from me. I admit, I have never actually used the saw on any multitool for real, from my tests they are great but it's just one of those cases where I have more than enough dedicated saws laying around (at least 6, in a one room apartment) that I don't see myself using it. The file does see some (rare) use but mostly it's for nails and the file on the Spirit is a bit to coarse for that.

Day 15
Rain destroyed the painting I did on the light outside Castle Thunderpants so I did a new one, plus a layer of varnish. Hopefully it will last til New Year. It's just acrylic paint on glass so I know it's only temporary (that's the point.)
Anyway the glass cover had to be screwed back securely so here is my only "action" shot so far...
