Comis that Soldier is super cool with the OG carry bag!  :like:

But for me, the most beautiful today was kamakiri’s '62 Huntsman LNF. Real  :drool:

Day 14
No work for the WorkChamp but I did get some time tonight to build a Mechanic CS (1.3623).

Original pouch! I didn’t know about that! Great find!  :like: :cheers:

Thanks :cheers:

Amazing soldier, Comis

Yet more lovely knives, especially Comis and Kamakiri- id love those in my collection too!

Day 15 - half way there!

Realised a light I don’t often use is missing a plug- back-side Philips and small screwdriver on the Master Craftsman/Astronaut to the rescue! Just need to work out why I robbed the plug at some point!?


Like the slim profile of that backside Phillips! :tu:

Day 15 used the awl to encourage these poorly made rip lines to work as designed.

Great knifes today, like your edit Rapidray, as most in this thread surely know with small details and both glossy and matte surfaces good pictures of knives are quite tricky.




Good use, Gath, we are planning to do a Stack challenge next year, most likely in April, would you have time to join us? :pok: :D

Day 15

Automobile with St. Christopher on scale.  Having a travel patronage Saint on scale is actually a really a cool idea, I wish Victorinox would do more unique scales like this.

Day 15

Some of my Wengers, obviously all of them qualify, but the one I wanted to show today is the Matterhorn Plus. It's in Ibach on spa treatment at the moment - it had a weak blade spring -, and this is the only photo of it I could find.

Looking good Exeter. Mine was in Ibach for almost three months, but was in a bad shape and actually required replacement of all liners several tools and the scales.

:oops:
Bah. No U on that one!  Forgot that I didn't post the list to date...and noticed my error.  :facepalm:

Density of the old knives with nickel silver liners feels nice to carry.  Gonna continue that way for tomorrow and switch to a slightly later Craftsman. Amazing that the original grind on the blades can remain sharp for over 70 years on this Huntsman.

Might as well put up pics since I have tomorrow's knife selected.

Day 16

Old Spartan(or Camper) with Bail, fluted corkscrew, awl and clip point small blade.  I remember getting this from evilbay.  Victorinox naming sometimes could be confusing, I have seen it called Spartan, but also see this exact same thing named as 'Camper' in 1967 Dealer's catalog.
