I've used the awl for boring holes, but never for sewing.

IMO its WAY too large for sewing purposes, however it falls into the 'better than nothing' category. I sharpen mine, and use them as tape cutters etc.

Yes - mainly 'on the fly' repairs to the chicken coop when we had one, but also on the occasional clothing repair.

I like that Vic add these things - they sit there unused, giving off the impression of being useless, until that fateful day when it's the only tool for the job and you're so glad it was there.  :cheers:

I find that the awl is quite helpful in loosening tight knots. (I prefer to blunt the sharpish edge so this can be done without causing damage).

I've used my awl/reamer lots of times for lots of different things. Mainly putting holes/drilling through all kinds of stuff, poking stuff, scraping stuff, even light prying.
Used the sewing eye once for putting a loose thread back in on one of my wife's large threaded wool sweater's, worked great  :salute:

I have, but not for it's intended purpose.
I've run a small lanyard through it (for instance the one that came with my LED LENSER P3 light) and, when the reamer is closed, the pressure is more than enough to keep it secured and safely attached.



I do something similar with my A100 that, lacking a lanyard attachment point, has it's Phillips driver surrounded by the cord and closed in the locked position making it a nicely improvised attachment point:

Well, you know...
I figure the only major limitation for any tool's usefulness is in our own minds... If you look past it's "intended" function, any tool can be useful for a whole of a lot more than it was intended to, in a pinch...  :salute:
The ones on a Sak just have the advantage of being in your pocket, ready to be used at any time

I don´t think so. I´m posting too much because I don´t have the money to buy anything new.
However, I am expecting a few Opinels next week, I´m trading against a Gerber Double Take.

Congrats RoSchro. It would be befitting if you celebrated (for free) by making a hole in something with one of your many reamers and using the sewing eye.  With pics. :cheers:
