Tough call...So I just looked at the SAKs that got photographed the most.This one is my fav for sure.NIB horn scaled 84mm Golfer, long nail file, alu tipped tweezers (Image removed from quote.)Proud of my Nespresso Arpeggio too:(Image removed from quote.)Third...Hmm...BO Spirit S SwissflameMauserNIB AstronautCheck that!Swisstool Spirit RT!(Image removed from quote.)
For me it's about the tools and how they meet my needs.Swisschamp. One of the most complete multitools on the market. Most of the problems the world throws at me that require a tool can be solved my Swisschamp. 08 Soldier. For starter's the scales are great for wet or gloved hands. I've used the cap lifter to pry and drive pins. It's the most used tool on this SAK. The serrated blade is near perfect for my urban needs. I can get the serrations sharp enough to rival Luke Skywalker's lightsaber for sharpnessPocket tool chest. The tools I want and need for most of my multitool needs. This is the SAK that gets the most day to day use. It's the perfect tool set for a keychain size with no silly frivolous tool's like the 58mm or 75mm line.Like most of you I have allot of SAK's but if I sold them all but these three I would fine.
My centerpiece is definitely El birth year Victorinox Alox Soldier.
For me it's my Mountaineer. Wife gave it to me for Christmas about 20 years ago.Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk
I'm seriously wondering how you got your hands on a SwishArK though...

Now to actually address the original question, I try To limit myself collecting from the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s and 80’s era...generally. I have specimen outside of the range but they are users (EDC)So my centrepiece from my area of interest... the Champion evolution, namely a, b, c and Champion Plus.
Wish I could. I do not have a computer anymore and can not for the life of me find out how to link pics here from Flickr from my phone.
For me it would be the Battle Series.Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk(Image removed from quote.)

By the way, Marc, are you sure that you "Climber" is not an original Traveller?
