It's been an...interesting past 36 hours. I'm a little late with some posts, so let's get on it.

Day 21

A no-use day...

Day 22

A new outlet was wired up. I used the Tinker Small's Phillips to screw the outlet to the junction box, but quickly gave up and grabbed a dedicated tool. The Camillus 27 was used to cut the insulation from the Romex.

  [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ]  

I awlso tried out the wire stripper notch. In my opinion, it's the most pointless feature on an SAK. A dedicated tool does the job much faster and easier. The notch doesn't hold 12 AWG very well. This one was even worse; without a half-stop, the cap lifter fully opened during the process...more than once. Though it got the job done, it's the first and last time I'll try stripping wire with an older SAK.

I have never found wire stripping notches to be very good for stripping wire. However, I have found that the notch created in the jaws of my side cutters when I cut a live wire  :oops:  can be effective for stripping  :D

First watermelon of the year for me. The blade size was just enough long to cut it comfortably.

That is a gorgeous SAK! It's actually a Climber Small though, not a Salesman. The Salesman has a back phillips instead of the corkscrew. Either way, that is a really nice part of your collection.

Day 23

Another can opener test. This time, I pierced the side with the awl, and sliced off the top. Plus: It was easier to get the peaches out. Minus: By half way around, the can was deforming under the pressure, making it hard (and messy) to slice. I'm not sure if older cans were thicker, or if I just should've tried to pull the lid sooner, but that last inch or two was a struggle.

Day 23

Another can opener test. This time, I pierced the side with the awl, and sliced off the top. Plus: It was easier to get the peaches out. Minus: By half way around, the can was deforming under the pressure, making it hard (and messy) to slice. I'm not sure if older cans were thicker, or if I just should've tried to pull the lid sooner, but that last inch or two was a struggle.
I wondered about the can thickness too :dunno:

Excellent test :like: :tu:

Been rewatching the Dirty Harry movies recently (still great 50 years later) and was reminded that the old soft drink and beer cans were way thicker. Crushing one in your hand in those days actually meant something :ahhh

Day 22
One of the true gems in my collection, my 1965 Alox Woodsman. This one has a bit of a story behind it. When I first got into collecting Swiss Army Knives, and before I knew much about different models, I decided I really wanted a red, old cross Alox. Not long after that I found a beautiful Farmer at a reasonable price and I bought it.

When it arrived I was confused; there was no opening layer. I started researching online to figure out what the model was, which led me to visit Sakwiki and the Swiss Army Knights forum. Eventually, I found the Sakwiki page for the 93mm Woodsman, and was thrilled to find I had a fantastic example of a pretty rare knife.

The best part is discovering this forum and Sakwiki. I can't tell you how much I've learned from those two sources. I'm also glad I finally joined after being a lurker for so long. LOL

I haven't used it for anything today, but I have enjoyed talking it out of my pocket and admiring it. The snap on the tools is ridiculous; it's hard to believe it's almost 60 years old. Victorinox quality!

Also, I can't seem to capture the true color in a picture. It has a very slight orange-ish hue that is really very beautiful.
Love the story and glad you decided to join.

Another can opener test.

day 24

Model Victorinox No. 312

Used the can opener to open a can of corn.

It worked fine. In general, we hardly use a can opener because all cans are equipped with a quick opener. The can opener on the SAK model 51 works slightly better, so point for the modern SAK.

Intermediate score: 15:10
