“… We love these little knives, in all their many varieties!” *

(*Apologies to The Kinks… :D)

I’m surprised there isn’t a thread to praise the capable cousin of the Classic, with its Philips driver, and its “EDC essential” cap lifter!

So here it is! :tu:

Ride on ramblers! :salute:

[…](Rambler with a pen) on left :tu:

(Image removed from quote.)

:rofl: Love it! Great description! :hatsoff:

I’ve always been I bit scared to get a Manager as I don’t like the idea of the ink leaking in my pocket.
Though, I guess those pressurised cartridges are pretty good?  :think:

And I’m also worried the extra girth might make an unsightly bulge in my pocket…  :D

:D pocket bulge is real I know…but think you’ll be ok :think: :rofl:

Never had one leak, you owe it to yourself to try one.

As much as the Rambler is better than the classic to me, yep it’s all about that combo tool, the pen in the manager makes it that little better again.
Very handy (pun intended) but importantly also very good to use, way better than the pens on 91mm plus models, much more comfortable in hand

:cheers:

Nice! 8)

It doesn’t appear too expensive, for such a cool looking pen, either. :tu:

Thanks for this thread, Andy!  There is no tool more deserving, IMO.  :cheers:

This one is the only SAK that is always on me, clipped to my house keys.  For its 15th anniversary (purchased 6/1/2006) I popped the scales off, cleaned, polished, lubed and sharpened it.  It's ready for another 15 years. 

The shield is long gone, but the Stayglow still shines as bright as ever.

It’s good to know your rambler is a good, long-term, companion. :tu:

I’m also a big fan of anything “glow in the dark”. Nice! 8)

Speaking of getting away with it…

I was thinking, “Isn’t it the Danes, not Danish?”  :think:

It must be ‘cos it’s lunchtime… mmm, Danish! :drool:

I like the Rambler and Manager. I used to EDC one for years. No ink leaks, negligible size and weight. Why would anyone choose the Classic over it, is beyond me. I wish they offered Alox and limited editions Ramblers.

 It’s great to hear the pens is such a great addition to the Manager. :cheers:

Also, :iagree: I’d love an Alox Rambler too! :tu:

I’ve even tried to make one myself, I’m so desperate. Though, with little success…  :cry:

See here: https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,87256.msg2237642.html#msg2237642

I think I’ll just have to bite the bullet, someday, and get a custom one…

I have seen the perfect one on Instagram :dd:

Though, I hate to think how much it’ll cost.  :-\

An Alox Rambler would be great as a choice, but I don't think I would carry one due to the lack of T&T.  My nylon (Stayglow) scales still look great after 15 years of banging around on my keychain.  I think it would be nice if they would come in all the cellidor colors of the rainbow like the Classic as well.

Can't deal without my Rambler. Replaced my LM Style CS and no regrets! Use it constantly. I have Ebony scales on mine.
