I´d like to do this. I´m not a challenge type of guy, but since this is about the SwissChamp, what could go wrong?I´ll also be carrying my Opinel pruning shears and saw but will try and use the SwissChamp first. My coworkers are going to poke some fun at me I think. For me, tomorrow will be day 1.
Day 2 - Showing off my stack SAKsMy challenge tool, the black SwissChamp, with a Champion and a Handyman. The Champion is one of my oldest SAKs. I retired it in favour of the SwissChamp after about 25 years of service. The Handyman (with fish scale) was part of my fishing tackle box for some time but is a desktop knife these days.
I'm planning a "different stack SAK every day" month

Nice pieces guys! Good luck on the challenge. I'm planning a "different stack SAK every day" month but I have to check if I have enough that would be accepted for the badge. Does any sak count as long as it has 5 layers or more? 111mm? 130mm? Wenger?
Stack challenge was originally intended to be for 91mm/85mm knives with 5 layers or more, but it seemed easier to limit it to group of models. I suppose the 130mm knives could be included, but there's a separate badge for 111mm models, so there could be one for 130mm knives if there was enough interest.
Come on now, Syem... Just how many SAK's do you have? It's crazy that you can do these "a different X every day a month" challenges like it's nobody's business. I could only manage two weeks from my whole collection.

Day 4 - SwissChamp and One Hand TrekkerI carried the SwissChamp to work again today, but, like yesterday, I didn´t use it. Back home I used the SwissChamp´s scissors to cut a strip off a bubble plastic envelope. This is to protect the OHT from harm during its journey to Magentus, all the way to the UK. I´ll also be sending him some parts, including a main blade for the mod he´s making me.
