Hi awl,
I am planning an Explorer 30 day challenge for May 2024. Who’s coming with me, man?
Unless I am taking part in a challenge, the Explorer is my primary SAK. I think it is the perfect combination of tools for my daily needs. I even use the mag lens! At 4 layers it isn’t too bulky or heavy to ride nicely in the pocket.
Im not sure the rationale for the model name, but for me, the toolset exemplifies what an explorer needs in a pocket knife. An explorer likely already has a legend fixed blade, saw, hatchet, etc., on his pack leaving this SAK to round it all out.
If anyone’s interested, please sign up and join me on the adventure!
-
I'd love to but the Micra challenge is already scheduled for May.
-
I’ll probably join.
I’m pretty sure Marketing gets to name the models, and that they do so on the basis of “whatever sounds cool that we think will help us sell the most SAKs”.
-
I love the Explorer! But a trip to London in May is probably going to put me out of a challenge, unfortunately.

Follow along if you can! Is the Explorer too much knife for London (or is it a flight carryon only kind of issue)?

I’m sure marketing does just that. It does make some sense to me as a pocket knife given what I’d carry in full size tools on an “expedition.”

I’m sure I will check a suitcase for the flight. I’ve done that before when flying domestically, to make sure I have a SAK on the other end, I am not sure how that works internationally with the UK.
I’m also given to understand that people are less accepting of pocket knives in public in England and, as a visitor, I suppose I was thinking that I would try to be as careful/discreet as possible.
I was planning on having my Rambler in my checked luggage for this trip.

Hi Marlowe, you'll be best off checking in any cutlery in the hold baggage I suggest. Knife carrying is just not that commonplace over here these days. The law allows you to carry less than 3 inch bladed folder without lawful excuse but a lock or fixed blade in public would need good reason. There have been a few incidents over the years which have made the general public less accepting but I've always found people recognise a SAK for what it is - a damn fine tool.
-
Is there an issue with being involved with two challenges at one time?

You can participate both challenge but you get only 1 badge.

Thanks for the advice, I keep that in mind!

Agreed sounds like solid advice. The Explorer might be just the right size SAK for a trip anyways.
But I won’t personally give you advice one or another as I’ve not been to the UK nor taken anything more than a classic international. That made it to Japan and back in checked no questions. Japanese security did stop me on the way out for the carryon of my shamisen plectrum. A bachi looks like and is about the same size as a small ice scraper for your windshield so I’m not surprised it was flagged, but it was let through.
Doesn’t SurgeUK work for an airport? Maybe he’ll chime in on the customs side of things.
Is there an issue with being involved with two challenges at one time?
If you choose to do an Explorer badge in the future I’d probably join in if not on another challenge.

It’d be great to have you join :salute:
I’ve never seen those scales before now. Neat. I wonder what year that Explorer is?

I suspect 1991 since this has hook (1991) also has screw on scissors (1991 rivet replaced screw)

i will start carrying my Explorer when challenge begins, i havent yet carried it so much that i could really have strong opinion on it so this will test me many ways. Maybe exclusively carry this to see how good Explorer is.

Those are some nice scale colors, Buzzbait!

Thanks. I wanted plus scales for both knives, so I decided to order some interesting colors. Once the new scales were on, I was over moon with how both knives turned out.

It'll be good to see people's feedback. On youtube atleast it seems a very over looked SAK.
I love mine and its my main EDC pocket knife.
Only time i switch it out is when i fancy carrying my swiss champ and even then it sometimes comes along because i love it so much haha. Either that or back the swiss champ up with a tinker...
-
Tomorrow it starts and im kinda excited to see how good Explorer really is in use.

I think of it more like this…
Start with the basic Spartan.
If willing to go to three layers, what’s the next most useful tool/layer to have?
Many (though not all) might say “scissors”. That gets us to Climber (with the hook as a bonus).
If willing to go to four layers, what’s the next most useful tool/layer to have?
Some would say “wood saw”, which gets them to Huntsman. I would say there’s a good argument for “metal saw/file”, but the Mountaineer doesn’t seem to get much love. I also think there’s a solid case for “pliers”; the Deluxe Climber is sadly discontinued, but they are available used on the ‘bay, all parts exist to mod your own, or the Deluxe Tinker is still available. If your answer is “end-mounted 3D Phillips” and or “mag glass”, then of course the Explorer is made for you.

Day 1
Here’s my Explorer I’ll use throughout this month along with the other two things always on me: my trusty Olight I3T and a cheap pokka pen.
[ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]
I EDC the Explorer but have never kept track of the tool use. I’ll try to post a pic of my most used tool or newly used tool of the day for this challenge to see what kind of use I get.

Day 1 - I have a few Explorers, but this is my favorite. It’s the current model with the newer glass magnifier, but with yellow plus scales. I’m not normally a cellidor fan, but certain colors like the yellow are quite appealing to me.

My yellow Explorer (my standard EDC SAK) with two other components of my basic EDC: Fisher space pen and Streamlight Microstream USB flashlight.
As with most of these challenges, the challenging part for me will be remembering to take and post daily photos.
I’ll probably alternate between my yellow and green Explorers.

The Explorer’s small blade helped start the day off right…

Man I do like those yellow scales, two great looking Explorers.
Unless I end up putting plus scales on my Explorer, all I need most of the time is that SAK, flashlight, and pen.

Since i time to time need pliers im wondering what tool should i pair with Explorer?
I typically pair my Kick with the Explorer. I think it’s the best minimalist SAK next to a PST/Bond. if I really think I’ll just need the pliers and another screwdriver or the wire stripper I’ll grab the Kick. Some redundancy but helpful to hold a bolt and tighten a screw, etc. it may be used when the Explorer can’t meet the task during this challenge.

Used at work tightening jubilee clips on an engine, and slicing some strawberrys for my little girl with my non work explorer!

My yellow Explorer...
:like: I wanted a yellow 91mm for the longest time, but I don't think that'll ever happen. A yellow Bantam, on the other hand, would be more doable.
As I don't (and likely won't) own an Explorer, I cannot participate. But I'll observe from the sidelines!

There's nothing to stop you from owning a yellow 91mm SAK. My Explorer was red when I bought it. I simply bought some yellow Plus scales on the Bay of Es.

The only thing stopping me is spending the money on new scales. I feel I need to earn them when the current ones wear out or are damaged.

That is a good choice. I have paired the Explorer and Spirit many times before.

Day 02
Today I opened more mulch for the yard and rediscovered the shortcomings that usually prevent me from carrying the Explorer.
1 I needed pliers to pull the liner from a lighter to refill it and the Explorer doesn't have pliers.
2 I needed a saw to remove a small branch in the backyard and the Explorer doesn't have a saw.
Therefore, I'm going to have to follow Antti's example and figure out what pliers based tool to pair with it.

Maybe a Signal? Failing that, a Rebar or a Wave would awlways be a good choice. A SwissTool with a wood saw would be up there, too.
-
Any of those would be a good choice but I'm thinking maybe my SOG PowerLock because it's been neglected for a few years now. I can't even remember ever carrying it since the SOG Power challenge in 2016. :twak:

Like Antti Lammi my Explorer saw more food prep today. I was quite sick today and baked beans, buttered Hawaiian sweet rolls, and oranges seemed to taste good for dinner.

Good eye. It’s a sandalwood mala with a bodhi seed guru bead. It’s still fairly new. I typically spend a week or so every winter, beading new malas to pass the time. My yellow Explorer sat on my bench the entire time, the scissors cutting cord and tassels.

After yesterday i decide to choose my Rebwing as my pliers carry instead Spirit. My RebWing is 6 gram lighter and has dedicated Metal Saw and Heavy Duty Saw (for Metal and Wood) also has excellent pliers, even tho Spirit is much more erconomic to use. Also i can mod Rebar toolset when needed.

Well, I suppose it’s all relative, but I think I paid around $2 per stick for these. Which, for a handmade churchill-sized cigar, puts it solidly in the bargain category in my mind.

Busy day for the Explorer. I used the small blade to trim a cigar, scissors to trim my mustache and one of my daughter’s fingernails, large blade to cut the tags off a new bike for one of my daughters, and the hook to pull the strap back through the buckle to fix a bike helmet for another daughter.

Day 04:
The green Explorer got a workout in the garden today. I used the scissors to trim spent flowers and leaves. I used the magnifying glass to check for aphids and to examine other bugs, and the main blade to scrape them off.

It's scarlet sage, growing from wildflower seeds. In some circumstances it would be considered a weed, but in my garden it's quite welcome. Hummingbirds love it.
