So here are some of mine:
starting from the latest, an old publicity smooth green 58mm alox (Heuliez, a car/bus body manufacturing brand):
it might be from the 80-90s? look at the variations with current gen 58mm alox:
| old | current | |
| Stamp | Victorinox Switzerland Stainless Rostfrei | Victorinox Swiss Made Stainless |
| file | Nail cleaner tip | Screw driver tip |
| Scissors pivot | Screw | Brass pin |
| Scissors spring | Black | Silver, more curvy, opening blades larger |
(http://forum.multitool.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=44094.0;attach=262934)
here are the ones i currently own (from top to bottom):
- Heuliez smooth green Alox
- Silver Alox
- Red Cellidor (?)
- Black Edition
- Black Edition (two is one, one is none.. right? :cheers:)
- StayGlow
- On the left: old green Cellidor upgraded to Titanium
(http://forum.multitool.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=44094.0;attach=262936)
I also bought some Fashion series 58mm that i gifted to relatives for various reasons (like 5 of them i think)

And I really like to carry the Rambler as my EDC knife/tool. Loving it. The Classic is not bad, but I really like the extra thickness of the Rambler. Oh... and the blade opens the correct side (oposite to the keyring - what I highly prefer)

My Manager lives on my car keys while my Minichamp now lives on another keychain tool set up I have. I generally have the Classic SD on me when putting around the house.
I tend to carry a pry tool to compliment my 58s. I love having my Shard and 58 together and since I've lost my Shard I now use the pry tool pictured. They make a great combo.

The scales appear to be some early plastic / ivory replacement maybe celluloid
The inlay is very neatly done it a very nice little knife.
I picked up another yesterday of a similar age but the scales have been given a nice wood grain effect ... i will post some pics when I clean it up

That inlay is spectacular. :cheers: I've never seen an inlay like it on a SAK.
Is the blade steel stainless or carbon?
Look forward to pics of the new one.

Oh... sorry. I didn´t read your replie. Well, IMO the 58s are great for keychain carry. Or with an added lanyard on the keyring. The Classic knife blades opens on the side of keyring. The wrong side for me. Most of the time something is in the way or needs be kept back from the blade.
The Rambler opens on the right side - opposite to the keyring. So the extension with the lanyard even provides a better grip and nothing is in its way.
That´s why the Rambler opens correctly while the Classic opens incorrect.
But that´s just my point of view.

Sometimes the smaller things are the most under estimated. Like 58mm SAK's. I have 91mm's and a few 93mm's, but I can say in all honesty, that my little 58 on the keyring is my most used pocket knife. Period. It's always there on me, and I can't leave home without it. People who know me know that I am a fanatic for the most compact tiny piece of gear that actually works at it's intended task. A bi-product of years of ultra light back packing I suppose. Small monocular instead of binoculars, soda can alcohol stove instead of my old Optimus, peanut size pocket knife instead of a larger stockman or barlow, and a Fenix E01 instead of a AA mini Magalight. I worship at the shrine of maximum minimalism.
I LOVE the 58mm!!

As for me it's a vintage model for sure all with Victoria tang stamp, exposed rivets construction and older cross-cut nail file.
Actually I'm pretty amazed how they peening down those tiny little rivets in this thin 58mm one layer model...it's for respect.
I'm not a huge 58mm frame size fan but I like any riveted SAK, if you know what I mean. ;)
So it's a 620 model or...? I appreciate if somebody can help with exact identification... :tu:

That would have been Sgt. Mike. He came across a road kill deer where the accident had just happened. Since he was a LEO, and he knew the officers on the scene, he did a sort of asset on the accident scene. He was on the way home with his better half from a semi formal function ,and just had the little classic with him. He field dressed the deer for transport to a meat processing facility for feeding the homeless shelter folks. He said the classic was a little slow going, but it did get the job done in the end.
Years ago, I was at Mesa Verde National park, and a park ranger did a demo on how well the old stone tools of the cliff dwelling indians worked. He had a rear haunch of a roadkill antelope on a table, and he took a single flake off an obsidian nodule. The flake was a finger size piece of black obsidian the size of maybe the main blade of a 74mm executive. That flake of stone sliced right through the antelope hide and meat like a sharp paring knife. He skinned and sliced up the haunch with very little effort. That demonstration was one of the first eye opening events that influenced me to smaller knives like the 58mm's and the Case peanut like my dad carried.
Most times just a little piece of sharp is all that's needed. :)

The USPS came through today. New 2015 dark blue Classic shown with the current EDC Cadet. I wasn't quite prepared for how small this is! The Alox scales definitely shrink it down a bit. May need a Mini Champ for a bit more to hang on to! :DRambler is 10mm thick, Classic 9mm. Both Cellidor.
EDIT- Or maybe a Rambler. Can someone tell me how much thicker the Rambler is compared to the Classic? I imagine at least a little bit, the Philips/caplifter looks fairly thick.. Thanks in advance. :salute:

I have one of those on my car keys. I don't know what the scales are but it sure is thin. Gifted it to the wife until I got her the Edelweiss classic she now has on her keys and uses all the time.

The USPS just delivered my latest 58mm SAK - a new-to-meRallyRover
(http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa284/DaveB58/Knives/SAKs/Rally/IMG_1455.jpg)
Just add scissors and you have the Rogue, which I like better than the Rambler. Flat driver is a better pry tool than the SD nail file plus can handle #2 Phillips, and the standard nail file can do most screws that the Ramble 3D Phillips driver can. I like the standard nail file for cleaning under my nails too.
I have one on my keys.
I have some Rovers and Bijous and if I ever get around to it will mod the Rovers to make Rogues

So, did you reclaim that one or is it still being held hostage? :P
I can look but not touching allowed. :facepalm: :facepalm:
:serverloft: :-\ I guess you'll have to resort to furtively caressing it then :cry:
It's going to need a clean and sharpen sooner or later. :dd:
It took me a few days to reply 'cause the sheer thought of the passion released on this occasion was quite overwhelming. I'm a sucker for a good love story :D

Look at all those cute little green ones, they've taken the best of both parts! As for the Bosch and the cabbage colour one, it seems they look pretty much like their parents.

I suppose that 1st is a predecessor of Bijou, 2nd - Deluxe (but why there are no Victorinox stamp), 3rd - I don't know :) and 4th also is predecessor of Bijou, but why there are no toothpick?

Thanks for your answers!
1st one is a Bijou, with early version of the nail file
2nd one is a "common" version of the Deluxe (the ones with gold coloured Victorinox stamp are the rarer ones)
3rd one I don't know...
4th one appears to be the Classic Gold Ingot (1 gram gold inlay), they simply don't have a toothpick

Unfortunately, it's a plastic, not a gold :(
And there are no KR, so it more closer to Bijou, am I right?

Weird, why would they make a plastic version... maybe it is some kind of sample version?
And you're right, the Gold Ingot is a Classic so it should have a keyring, and this one doesn't have one.
Crazy stuff you got there, with also the one with the cut&picker blade :D

TazzieRob,
Your comment inspired me to add a Rogue to my meager 58mm SAK collection. The mailman just dropped this one off this morning. It has some pocket wear on the scales, but the tools/blade appear to be unused :tu:

ITS HERE! (took 8 days longer than I expected, but I am always very optimistic when it comes to shipping times :-\ )
First 58mm SAK, a rambler, and it will be my new edc (maybe by itself?!). :like:
Really like the small size, I have small-average hands and it is comfortable to use with a few fingers, tools are easy to take out, and easy to close with one hand.
Was not expecting the weaker springs, but everything is buttery smooth and snaps back. :cheers:
The little philips is great, and the toolset will pair very well with my Hiker out walking and camping. :drink:

Congrats! :tu:
I carried the Classic SD on my keyring for many years and used it frequently. Then I found the Rambler not that long ago. IMHO the combo tool increases its utility several times over. I've got a number of Classic SDs, and a couple old ones I put new scales on as they original scales were badly cracked and chipped. Probably won't see much carry time any more with the Ramblers and MiniChamps. The newest of them will be used as "giveaways" to people I encounter that have done something deserving of a token reward and would use one.

I'll add my 58mm to the thread. I'm unsure if the case is original to the knife, but it came with it and fits perfectly:

I was struck by the close-up of "Victoria" and the umbrella. I grabbed one of my assortment of classic SD SAKs and saw "Victorinox Swiss Made Stainless". I haven't checked SAKWiki yet but it would seem that you have an early version of the classic. Can you enlighten me?
Thank you!

Thank you NorCal, sadly I don't know much about this knife as I usually buy 91mm and 84mm sizes, but I liked the case that it came in, so that's why I bought it.

The camos get carried, but not much. The LEs not at all. My usual is the silver alox MiniChamp.
The orange Alox caught my eye but I do like T&T available so I don't have any 58mm Alox. I carry my Classics in rotation but in my pocket not on a keychain.
My grail 58mm is this. It's a Swiss cycle clothing brand and my one Classic that's a shelf queen.

I made my own leather keyring sheath for my beloved classic. Simple pouch sheath, wet formed so it fits like a glove and takes almost the whole depth of the knife for security. Makes it easier to use not having it 'attached' to the keyring, but as a pull out tool with nothing attached to it.

I made my own leather keyring sheath for my beloved classic. Simple pouch sheath, wet formed so it fits like a glove and takes almost the whole depth of the knife for security. Makes it easier to use not having it 'attached' to the keyring, but as a pull out tool with nothing attached to it.

Such a great was to carry a 58mm. Nice sheath. I also carry my 58mm Manager in a keychain sheath for ease of use.

I keep the Manager on my house keychain at all times ( about 6 years now ). I keep my minicamp on a ball chain and wear it from time to time. I'd love to find a sheath like the one I have for my Manager. Its made in China and I've looked around a bit but so far no luck.Have you tried AliExpress :tu:

Yeah, I had one of those. Once.
Then I made my own from heavier leather wth better sticking that held the knife more secure.

FB, when you get it, please put up photos of both sides's back springs and liners. It seems to have a width of 6 on one side and 5 on the other. I'm interested to see how it's set up. A nice one, serrated blades are a nice addition.
Post by: FolderBeholder on August 03, 2018, 06:13:48 PM
Should pair nicely with my Spyderco MiniChamp. Now all I need is a 58mm w/some Wenger tools to round out the modified collection.
lichan, here are some of his words about the springs, etc.
"Clip-Point and Serrated Blade are from a Cutco USA 1888 model knife. I added small spacers to match the hole size inside the pivot on CUtco blades and added a third back-spring with a brass spacer between Cutco blades. I modified the serrated blade's tang so it would sit below the liner. Very cool project, it took alot of planning to get it to work. "

When I was a knife nut, my very favorite pocketknife was the little Case Peanut. It was small enough to drop in a pocket yet it could take care of most things I would use a pocket knife for. Now that I have downsized to only owning SAK's, I find the 58mm to be my new "peanut." It's so small you can forget you had it on you until you need a knife. Or a scissors. Or a little screw driver. Or a tweezers. Or a toothpick.
The 58's are like a .22 caliber firearm; Very under estimated.

Right. Not to be ungratefull, but gift-cards aren't the nicest gift to give. I'd much prefer (to give anyway) a nice card with money in it. Money, the universal gift card. :D
The old paper VVV never expires. But stores ade opting out on this one. It's replaced with a VVV Card. Which also never expires HOWEVER after the 3rd year they deduct €6,- from the credit to 'maintain' the card.
Anyway. If you have VVV bonnen or cards, Bever accepts them and they sell SAKs :)

Now the leather case is home made to protect my favourite one, a blue Deluxe. The Alox [Edit] Executive is new to me and has the older, cut, nail file. I have a question about this one though, how rare are these? I'm considering replacing the scales and rebuilding it into a wood Bijou (with T&T and visible pins) but I'd like to check if that's a bad idea. The blade has the full four lines "Victorinox; Switzerland; Stainless; Rostfrei" opposed to "Victoria" and the crossbow if it makes a difference.

Added the tiedye SAK on the right. I was worried they were the same one, but I think the one on the right is considered the red one. Anyone know for sure? :dunno:

My name is Barry. Glad to have you Carl! :D
At least accumulating SAK's is a heck of a lot more economical than collecting boutique brands like GEC and Case. :D
And since most of them are red handles, the better half doesn't know when I get a new one! ;)

I wanted to make a locking mechanism for the blade on a 58mm SAK...I pondered it for an hour or so...
(http://www.musee-rodin.fr/sites/musee/files/styles/zoom/public/resourceSpace/1052_c59cc1300707c8b.jpg?itok=KJPsFwm1)
and this is what I came up with:
(https://i.pinimg.com/564x/69/9d/fc/699dfc7faecf77377a11a1411b595d84.jpg)
maybe someone has come up with something better but I find this works like a charm. The pen works as part of the lock, when extended the blade can't move. However, if you retract it, the collar can be slid right off the blade. The blade functions as a great awl now, something I couldn't do safely before.
Cheers,
H.G.

There should be a badge for this!!
For 58mm? If you like the mod, cheers. It's rather an easy fix but not necessarily the best one. I never use the blade because it closes way too easy. Now I feel more confident testing its limitations. I find the pen blade on the manager to be a surprisingly decent awl in my experience.

I never had an issue with the blade for general usage, but like you, I respected its limitations. I am hard pressed to find a sharper blade anywhere, except perhaps the Opinel. I just admired the creative thinking behind this mod. I never would have thought of it :D. You're definitely right about the blade making a good awl!
Barry, look at me, this is serious. If you want a knife that cuts like an Opinel, but without the wood swelling issues, get the Victorinox florist knife. Thin, thin edge, rugged nylon scales, and slices and dices like an Opinel. I've never had one before and picked up one at a gun show two months ago. I'm amazed at this knife and wish I'd got one a long time ago.

I wanted to add a Classic to my pocket EDC kit, but one with Cellidor scales was too thick to fit in the case and I didn't have a spare Alox.
But I did have a Bijou missing one scale (that I used for my Mini Champ Plus mod: https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,87486.0.html ).
So I popped off the other one and it works great. The exposed rivets keep it between the straps on the outside of the case.
I pulled out some of the contents for the photo. From left:
- 2" hex bit extension
- Hex key with ends slightly shaved to take my hex bit coupler
- Selection of hex bits and coupler (The hex bit coupler fits on the inline Phillips on SAKs, with a slight shim.)
- Swiss-Tech Micro-Slim flat wrench in background
Some other stuff in the pocket EDC kit case:
- 2 foot tape measure
- Rare earth magnet
- Scotch and electrical tape
- Matches
- Needle and thread

✅ Complete color palette
Did anybody buy some of new 2021 classic SD?Of course! I have a Lime Twist one.
I have quite a lot of the 58mm knives. Getting the whole group in one photo would be a little tricky.

Also bought a simple Rambler:

I also noticed a strange thing: the "coarse" part of the nail file seems shorter in new SAKs.The grey SAK at left is about 4-5 years old.
Did anybody else noticed it ? ???. Maybe it was already discussed in the forum?
