I honestly think the old cutters are just as soft as the newer ones. Strange since the pliers seem like strong steel that doesn't ding very easily. Perhaps they ground the cutters after heat treat and accidentally annealed them a bit. :dunno:

As far as the rest of the tool is concerned, the old ones are slightly better with respect to the fit & finish. The new ones look and feel a bit cheaply machined, while the older ones look and feel like they were perfected by someone who cared.

I like the older ones, because the pliers jaws are two seperate pieces that can be loosened and tightened with the screw. That does help getting the cutters to act a bit more effectively.  :)

The Camp knife is a second one for the collection and I had the Safety pliers already. Rest of it came in yesterday and today.  :rofl:

Nice collection. You know, you will have to get a nice...



...to store it all eventually.  :pok:  :pok:

You have quite a few items I do not have, and I have well over 1000 multi-tools and over 1000 SAKs. Good job GLB.  :hatsoff:

Thank you very much, Chako! :cheers:

Indeed, a toolbox of sorts is soon to be a necessity. It took two hours to get the ones together not in the wood case. :ahhh

I've definitely tried to find some oddities for the collection, and a lot of them were inspired by seeing your collection. Others were happenstance just from perusing eBay listings. :multi:

Some updated collection photos...
Super impressive GLBM  :like: I will have to open the pics on my PC to explore your collection in detail.

I’m at the point of needing some better storage options as I’ve currently got several bags and boxes with my SAKs and MTs spread around...not ideal. I like Chako’s usage of a tool chest with draws. Have to look into that option... still a very long way off the quantities listed by him or even yours. There are collections, collections, and then collections!

Many thanks, Max! :cheers:

The pictures didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. Used a tripod without flash, but the lighting was still poor.  :ahhh

The watchmaker's toolchest is still my favorite. It holds a lot of tools and looks more like furniture than a toolbox. But, a toolbox is needed in my case these days. Chako told me when I first started complaining about storage to get one. Probably should have done that instead of buying so many smaller borderline-useless storage containers.  :rofl:

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for storage, Max! :popcorn:
