 :iagree:

I'm a bit shocked...  :sa:

I am not keen on the standard red scales either,
I prefer the translucent ruby or sapphire scales.
My trouble is i never show initiative, but that's only because no one has told me to.

Are those nylon scaled 111mm models?  Nice!

What is a sine qua non of a SAK? 

Is a Victorinox 8 inch chef knife a SAK?
Is a Swiza a SAK?
Is a Victorinox Hunter Pro a SAK?

 :think:

Remember your first glass of beer? I'm pretty sure you didn't liked it, but now you love beer!

A bit of the same with Vic's: You don't have to like red, but you still can love Victorinox.

Correct you are.  When I first tasted beer, I could not stand it.  There still are several I do not like, but I really do enjoy a good IPA. :cheers:

Good beer and one of my favorite SAKs with one of my favorite set of scales.

Thanks, they’re Wounded Warrior Project scales.  They came on a Tinker, but I wanted them on a SAK I frequently carry.

I don't mind the red, it's the cheap feeling plastic. They nylon red are great and red alox is a dream!

The old solid cellidor scales have a much better feel than the newer hollow ones. They wear better too, in my view. I also like that solid red ones are slightly deeper in colour (my few are, anyway).

 :iagree: 100%

The worst thing they did, scale wise, was to change to those bloody hollow scales.
The solid ones have a great feel and sturdiness to them, and i like the material as much as the looks, personaly....

I bet most of the red celidor lovers are keeping quiet. :D
It just shows how many people like SAKs of one kind or another. :hug:
Hooked, like everyone else. ;)

All hail the hook!

I agree! 
My vote is yes because the original SAKs were not even red cellidor at all!  :salute:  You're a bonafide SAK fan!  :hatsoff:

Personally, I like most any scales, on a SAK.  That being said, I wish there was a way to preserve the artwork on the Limited Editions.  Carry one for a while and it wears off.

Just my 2 cents...

Why ponder of such nonsense Sos! Of course you are! ‘Tis’ not the scales which deem a SAK a SAK!
