The “go big or go home” MAN-SIZE COMBO!


That’s right....Written has in capital letters and ending with an exclamation mark to highlight that they are BIG!




....and no I am not compensating for “something”

Here's a combo that makes a lot of sense. Pocket tool chest and a Vic Walker.

My standard EDC is an Explorer and a MiniChamp. I feel this combination covers most of my day-to-day needs and is easy to pocket.

I voted 93 and 58.

I don't need a combo if I carry a 91mm.  It would have everything I need

If I happened to have a 93mm, the 58mm scissors and tweezers, and sometimes the small blade come in really handy. 

I'd divide the tasks into "got the job done" and "bailed me out"

The large blades, screwdrivers, and openers on either the 91 or 93mm SAKS got their respective jobs done.

But over the years, its the tweezers, eyeglass screwdriver and the scissors that have bailed me out.

For some reason, its the bailouts that make being prepared feel good.

Most of the time, I'm carrying my Trekker at work and one of many 91mm's I like to alternate through.  When I'm not at work, and just out and about I might carry my SwissChamp 'substitute' combo at the top (Marlboro Troubleshooter and Outdoorsman).   I also tend to keep the Signature on my keychain as a backup pen.  So my vote for overall best combo is 111mm and 91mm.

It is really cool to see a lot of us do tend to carry more than one.  Really love a lot of these combos others have on here!

hmmm... if I knew then what I know now... I would say that for a combo it would have to be large and small.  Medium (91 or 93) don't really need a combo.

A lot of great combos on this thread.  I carry a Tinker and Classic SD, a little boring but easy to get in stores and is a great toolset for day to day challenges.

Great points! You’re right, accessible and a great set of tools! Just seems to lack  one essential component that I can’t seem to put my finger on...  :think:

LOL, let me guess  :think: :whistle:

I actually did just get a Climber which I am enjoying a lot.  The Tinker and Classic SD though they seem to have in every Target and sometimes the Huntsman (I don't need the saw) so that is why I give the nod to that as my combo of choice even though it has overlap with the tweezers, toothpick and screwdriver a little bit.

I just got a Cadet and wow I love it.  The Alox is really nice and it looks like a piece of art.  I am going to pair it with a Rambler.

Thought I'd toss my $.02 into the mix...

Normally I have the Mini Champ in my pocket and a 91mm on a suspension clip or belt pouch (Explorer at home and Swiss Champ when out).

The Mini Champ handles smaller, precision stuff with ease, leaving the 91mm for the bigger things. Sometimes a bigger blade or bigger scissors just makes the job easier/quicker/less fiddly. Likewise, the Mini Champ's smaller tools do things the 91mm can't handle. They complement each other.
