I didn't know there is a badge for this challenge! I couldn't find any when I checked before the challenge started!
Could someone clarify this for me please?
Completion of this challenge should qualify you for the SAK Stack badge. :cheers:

That beer looks mutated. Like that SC XXL.
What effect did you use there?

Day 23 Post

Wife bought a new fruo-fruo pillow for the camper.  Had to remove the tags.  Wife was concerned that tearing them off would damage the pillow.  Surgical removal was necessary, especially for the one marked with ‘under penalty of the law’.  I wonder how many items across the USA still have those tags installed.  My mattresses do, even the armrests on my backyard swing.
SAK SC scissors pressed into use.  Worked perfectly at the picnic/work/surgery table.

That would be nice.

At the moment I unfortunately post infrequently, there is too much stress in real life...

MONSTER DAY 23

today it was the SwissTool BEAST and 91 SwissChamp with the Rook Reylight. The SwissTool had to step in today to cut a really tight zip-tie using the plier wire cutters. even though the blade on the Swiss champ could've accomplished this task because of the position of the zip tie it was much safer to use the ST wire cutters.

later used the scissors on the SC to cut open a snack.
:popcorn:


the ST BEAST is a little bit wider than the SC.
it also has 6 tools on one side and 5 on the other so it got me thinking- would the ST be considered an 11 layered tool?  :think:

it definitely could as a strike weapon and/or as a blinding tactical light.

I'd observe from the sidelines, but joining in seems unlikely. I don't own any SAKs with more than five layers, and acquiring "monsters" is a low priority.


But we have cookies.

A colleague at work got this one from somewhere and was disappointed. He expected a Swiss Champ.

Did a swap and it worked out. Since then Duke Nukem lives here.

It's a hilarious mod with 2 scissors, 2 main blades and a hawkbill blade, the Cybertool, the wrench and 3 (THREE!) hooks. Really want to know what it's builder was smoking.

I will be missing for a couple of days (and only a couple I hope).  I have mis-placed/lost the Swiss champ I bought in 1998.  We are out camping and now cannot find it.  Hopefully it will surface when we return home late tomorrow. If not, looks like a purchase is necessary.  Very sad to me as it was the first SAK bought by me.
I appreciate all of your patience.

Day 24

Found a Cybertool 29....I am thinking this will find is way into my EDC as a good companion knife for a pliers based MT. I really like the bit driver.

Of course. But the SwissChamp handled it well!

I hope you have a single-story house! :ahhh

Day 25

My Nextorch Pioneer came. The only issue I'm seeing so far is that the blade and saw cannot be opened with one hand. The thumb holes are too rounded off and polished. I might file the inside to make them one-handed. But it is not too shabby.
