I have actually used the firesteel on the signal with some success believe it or not. It’s definitely not ideal. But it can work if you have something that catches a spark really well.
I think of it as a backup to a much larger ferro rod.

I'm not really sure how many people really like the translucent SAKs.
I like them, and intend to get more.

Another great day, y'awl :2tu:

I didn’t notice that at first! Neat!!

According to the MTO link it’s not actually gold but according to victorinox/the article it is?. Who knows.


Edit: i understand now. The liners are nickel silver and the scales have gold plating inside.

If I didn’t carry a Sebenza almost every day, I think I would carry a Buck. The Buck company is great. Really nice hollow ground blade (in s30v in this case). Opens nice and smooth. Just a good knife.

Day 5: Monday Oneday

I don't see a lot of people posting about the Evoke, so I'll throw one in. I'd guess the reason they don't see a lot of action is that, unless you're a huge Victorinox fan, they aren't doing much to stand out to stand out from any one of the 9001 other folding hunters out there, while costing almost double what a classic 110 does.

That said, Vic does make a very nice knife. It's actually lighter than a 110, despite being a bit bigger. Smoother operation too. If the order of the day is "big manual folder" it's my first choice. If you can find a deal on one, it's a good pickup.

I usually carry it with just the lanyard, but I popped the pocket clip on today. It's definitely solid, maybe even a little too solid. About the only way I've found to get it off is to put a loop of cord through and pull way harder than it seems like I should need to. Guess it's a better safe than sorry situation.

It's awlso (by accident, I'm sure) almost the bisexual pride flag colors. I've had a few friends who usually give me a nervous look if I pull out anything bigger than a Classic take an interest in it. A little knifevangelism is fun now and then.
Merit Badges Participants shall carry and use one Soldier knife, the model of their choosing, for the duration of the 90 days and post a picture each day. Participate in a challenge thread and post a photo of a Victorinox 91mm XAVT/XL/XLT, 111mm Workchamp XL, Wenger/Delemont S54/Tool Chest Plus or Wenger Giant for thirty (30) consecutive days Participate and contribute in Challenge thread and post a photo of either an Axe, MT/Folding knife or Fixed blade (picked at the beginning of challenge) for thirty (30) consecutive days.

That's a nice looking Evoke.  It always draws my attention.

Day 5 : Minichamp Monday

It's always by my side on my keychain.  I've been impressed with it's ability ever since I did the Minichamp challenge.

I don't see a lot of people posting about the Evoke, so I'll throw one in. I'd guess the reason they don't see a lot of action is that, unless you're a huge Victorinox fan, they aren't doing much to stand out to stand out from any one of the 9001 other folding hunters out there, while costing almost double what a classic 110 does.

I think you’re on the right track.  As someone who regularly carries blades in this size range, I wanted to be excited about the Evoke, but haven’t been able to bring myself to purchase one.  For me, it comes down to the following:
- Street price of $120 is expensive for what it is.
- Ho hum steel
- At over six ounces, I’m sure it’s a tank but simply too heavy

I'm half-tempted to get an SAK with a bit driver, just to see how well Victorinox did it.
The bit driver is a phenomenal tool.  I’d even go so far as to suggest it may be the best thing out there for small to medium size screws.

Well I got behind a couple days being sick.  I’ll have to make it up on the other end and keep going from here.  Tried to carry my Swisschamp and Minichamp for Sunday and Monday but they sat on the bedside table.

Day 6: Two Layer Tuesday

Today I’ll carry my Alox Electrician.  This is by far my favorite Alox and one of my favorite pocket knives in general.  No key ring makes it feel like a proper pocket knife and is more comfortable.  I think we all can agree the strengths of the 93mm blade, reamer, and cap lifter.  The electrician blade is a wonderfully useful wharncliffe blade.
