No! Keep the big bottles, I think you need a bigger SAK.

I’ll try the ol’ swisschamp on the next one!

Brand new waiter ready for some action.  :salute:
In my quest for the perfect edc sak for all my occasions I my run across, I have now picked up the waiter. This is my going out in the summer heat knife. Slips prefect in shorts and won't weigh pocket down. 84mm blade perfect for cutting limes, combo for beer openings, and corkscrew for my lady's wine needs.
I have ordered 84mm white scales but for now I am enjoying the red scales till they come from Ukraine. Added black tweezers, toothpick and mini screwdriver. Pin will come with white scales which I will also add pen slot for a 84mm waiter plus.

Very nice! It’s a great knife. You’ve read my mind, I’ll be cutting some limes and popping corona bottle caps this evening. Hopefully I remember to get some action shots.

Grabbing some tonight at bark in the park dog night at the Chicago dogs minor league baseball game. I have to cut up a hot dog for my dog Geppetto.

That’s the best use of a SAK!  Is he a Maltese or bichon?

No limes and corona for us in the end it was just a bottle of wine.  I posted earlier about the corkscrew being tricky on big bottles, but this one came out just fine.

Here, looks at this:



Immler's method is a breeze. I used to think the SAK corkscrew was a novelty, but that makes it really practical.

It's Wednesday and a Waiter made its way into my pocket.
Figured it was a sign.

Well I am a fan of the beer. But  one day a few years back I saw this on EBay and picked it up for under $10 I believe.

Looks like they just glued and put a finish  over a label. It is smooth in the hand and feels good.

Sometimes it catches my eye like today and in the pocket it goes.

Just thought I'd share.

This is a bit late in the thread, but I have been looking at the waiter I recently got and thinking that perhaps the waiter with plus scales is more spot on. I realize actual  waiters tend to carry like 10 pens, but in the fantasy having that extra backup just in case is heroic.

I agree with the pen idea!
I believe the Waiter was different years ago?

The other day I twisted and cut a zip tie with the main blade- wrong tool- but it did it and I didn't break it!  :whistle:

Pen is a great additional tool for a Waiter. This is a 91mm Waiter Plus I recently put together from left over parts. Will make another one from better bits if I get the chance as this is a fantastic little knife - up there with a Manager or a Swiss Champ for sheer usefulness I’m my book…
