I have about 14 or so.

I have a few alox's like two red Pioneer's, a red Pioneer X, a silver Pioneer X, a black Pioneer w/red shield, a black Cadet with white shield and a silver Wenger SI w/bali.

I also have a Swisschamp, a few Explorer's, a Golfer, a Spartan and a recently found Craftsman.

Hmm, looking at my list I may have to get rid of a few that I don't use nor collect to get me below 10.  :)

funny, I like having the SAKs I have, and yes, there are others I would like to get, but cannot complain.

the sad reality is that if a person has just one SAK, they are well prepared, and should be grateful.

so now that I tried to speak of restraint, time to go acquire more  :rofl:
If I can help, let me know

Sixty or seventy. Most are two or three layers, a single SwissChamp.

Since I answered this question on Jan 28th, I've bought 8 more SAKs. If I buy at least 1 per day, then in 3 or 4 years I have a chance at maybe feeling partially fulfilled.

Oh my, I thought buying one every month was enough to qualify me as a mental case.

Somewhere between "one" and "many". Thankfully I can take or leave Alox.

I could give up collecting them anytime .... trust me  :facepalm:

When my girlfriend says that I have too many SAKs I will point her to this thread  :rofl:

I have 10 Victorinox SAKs and one Wenger laying in my knife drawer.
All of them are for use, but some just don't get any use.
My Handyman goes wherever I go, I even took it diving when I didn't have a diversknife yet.
On the other hand, I got a Parachutist for my birthday because I wanted black scales on my SAK. It's just not logical to carry a Handyman and a Parachutist at the same time, so that one is still new in box.

Apart from my SAKs I also have a bunch of other knives.

When I get to it I will make a photo of my collection.

I just did, wanted to be sure about the number. I'm counting 84 pieces here. There's 1 Mikov, 1 Adler, and 1 Amefa DAK in the pic. The rest are all Victorinox, Wenger and Victorinox Delemont.
