I have bought not one, but two executive from MTO store! It's not common to find one used, so I want to take advantage for the great price 🙌

Mini, I should have picked up an extra one as well, given the shipping cost...

Shipping cost will raise up if I choosen 3 knife, and also the total value of the purchase will increase. If I exceeded the quote of 20euro, is was possible to have custom fees.

Oh yeah, but I was saying I should have gotten a 2nd (or 3rd) for that price. Shipping isn't too terrible to US  but was still twice what the knife cost.
I put the knife in my cart and thought I'll see what shipping is - saw $8+ and thought "well, still not bad, $12 or so for an executive". In hind site, I should have given it a bit more thought and added another one or two to my order. I can't imagine shipping would have increased that much for a few extra ounces.

That reminds me of my 15 to 20 year old Money Clip.  I really needn't used it so it's near perfect,  sitting in the drawer.  The scissors are much better than on my Executive which has a spring that flips out of alignment.

In retrospect, I probably should have passed on this.  It's only going to sit in the drawer, with two other Executives I got this week.

My main EDC Executive is my main one that's with me all the time.

Can't believe how many deals I've been seeing on eBay for the Executive.  If anyone was ever interested in getting one, I'd suggest monitoring the bay for the deals that have been coming up.

I love mine and carry it increasingly. I can't believe this isn't more popular than the Classic....basically the same size but much more knife. I'd swap the peeler for a cap lifter/screwdriver which would make it perfect.

Yep.  I'd definitely like to have seen it with the type of combo tool that's on a Rambler and MiniChamp.

Well, SAKs are awl about versatility. You can find lots of uses for any tool, peeler included.

I'm about 20 years behind the 8-ball... :facepalm: I have ordered my first Executive, and Delemont Executive 81 recently.

I bought them to replace a lost Manager. I'm a big fan of the Rambler too, but I reckoned it was a good time to try something different. Looking forward to the larger small platforms to pair with a 84mm Cadet or 93mm Pioneer/Farmer.

I never knew MacGuyver used the Executive on so many occasions. It would be a disgrace for me on multiple levels not to at least try it out!  :salute:

I love mine and carry it increasingly. I can't believe this isn't more popular than the Classic....basically the same size but much more knife. I'd swap the peeler for a cap lifter/screwdriver which would make it perfect.

We have had members here that have cut notches in the peeler to give it an opener :cheers:

I never normally if ever need one so that being not on a stock Executive never bothered me :tu:

Everyone that has a Classic should also have an Executive  :ahhh

The file!

So, they finally gave the Executive the new, more aggressive file pattern that the 84mm line recently got. Sweet! A lot more versatile than the spark erosion files, and more durable than the old design 74mm file.

Yes!  I have recently purchased a Sportsman and a Cadet and the surface is the same.  It's quite a good nail file.

I received my Executive, and I like it! It's a 58mm on steriods!  :D

It seems like a good companion to a bigger knife with the opening layer and without scissors. Like a Pioneer or Farmer.  :cheers:

Well I promised I would post, so here is my Victorinox Executive Plus or my idea of a “74 mm Mini Champ.” I went with a Nightcore NK 5 scalpel holder in lieu of a Spyderco blade. Also added a few Wenger tools I like. Curious what additions or omissions you guys would make.
