In his one man thread.
(Haiku is a three line poem consisting of 17 syllables (5, 7 and 5). They are supposed to contain a juxtaposition (usually of every day common objects or feelings) to convey how the related items are juxtaposed).

Next I purchased a real three layer Yeoman but it was confiscated for Father's Day. My wife and I moved from surprise gifts 27 years ago when we became empty nesters. We are pretty inseparable and prefer not to spend time apart to acquire the surprises. This has continued after Amazon made online purchases an easy option. Each of us selects & purchases (usually online) items that suit us well ahead of the gift occasion and then rely on short term memory loss for the surprise factor. :) I then purchased a second Yeoman only to have it confiscated as well. :) Not to be dissuaded (Father's Day is a ways off), I picked up two more Yeomans that remain available. :)
I really like the Yeoman and am carrying it today.

After admiring Yeoman's from afar, I moved steadily from I really like them to I gotta have one. I was really excited to see a "Buy-it-now" opportunity for a Yeoman with the BSA emblem and jumped at it. It turned out that it was really an Explorer with a Yeoman name on the box (learned about this model after the fact from SAKWiki and more experienced forum members).

Built my Yeoman from an old Compact and a dead Explorer a few weeks ago and I've been using it ever since. I'm glad I was able to give new life to my most often used items and combine them to become my new EDC. I know this isn't a "real" Yeoman, but I'm glad I have this tool loadout on me every day.
Good job :2tu:

Have someone wanting me to build a Yeoman. Any tips combining a Compact & Explorer? Should be a simple rebuild and I should be able to reuse the Explorer’s rods? Seems a common mod?

A local medical supply store rented different styles for fairly cheap. Some beaches
Provide them for free on first come first serve. Not all float but can at least go in sand and partly in water.

I wanted to reuse the bushings and the rods from the Explorer, so took extra-care drilling these out. Used 2mm bit and this little grinding tool on a Dremel to remove 90% of the ‘captured’ rod end, and then drifted the rod out with some gentle taps. Last pic shows my peening efforts (not very pretty). :facepalm:

Almost finished my Yeoman WS mod...some major reworking to get it working just right. More details and explanation to follow. Here’s a teaser shot in the meantime of one of the more difficult layers... :cheers:

Took some time and lots of test fitting, but came out OK. I’m going to stay with the ‘Yeoman WS’ nomenclature as this seems to have been used before, although not sure if with an awl.
Basically a Woodsman with Combo tool or Explorer Combo tool with wood saw. :think:

Thanks Rapidray, 🆘, comis. :hatsoff:That’s exactly what I was thinking but you came in a layer less! Very nice. :like: :cheers:

...well, the first one went to a customer, so what was I to do? :dunno:
Took one reference shot before closing up with the last liner. Interesting picture as it shows all the tools down through 3 layers...just make out the folded scissors. Would be cool to fully skeletonize each liner so you could see right through the SAK.
Donor was a tired Explorer (long Phillips and grey magnifier) and an old Compact I had spare. Transparent red Plus scales to round it off, and pairs nicely with my Yeoman WS.

My first 3 YEOMAN arrived today. The 2 yellow once looking like brand new :hatsoff:Nice set Ivo! :like:
Does the bottom Yeoman have a different layout arrangement?
Do all three have the nail file material on the hook?

No nail file on the hooks :hatsoff:
The 2 yellow once have the same tools but another layout. :hatsoff:

I like it when the screw driver is in the center layer.

I like them both , I don't use them , I just collect. :cheers:I admit I like them both too. Yeoman is a good combination of tools.

Since my first Yeoman, a mod, around June or so, I've really come to love the Yeoman configuration. I made a couple of other extended Yeoman mods (Yeoman WS and Yeoman WS+MS), but I still keep coming back to the basic Yeoman as my favorite. I'm planning on doing another one soon with a different scale treatment.
Post by: Ivo on November 18, 2019, 08:03:41 PM
I bought them on ebay jph and I did not pay the listed price , I offered $45/each and the seller agreed. :woohoo: :hatsoff:

I keep coming back to Yeoman as my favorite model. Here is a recent one I modded, then added titanium scales with a copper cross that I found from Australia.
Very nice Yeoman jph! :like: :tu: :tu:

One day while at that venders stand I picked up the box and opened it :o. Oh my, what the heck! I bought it then came here to ask if it was the real deal. Its a +B with changed scales. I've never carried it but as I was relaxing one day I took it out and have been debating if it would be a SAK I'd like to carry. I've been getting reacquainted with my golfer so for now I think I'll keep debating. Cool SAK but I think its time for me to get a Compact.

Are the Explorer lovers around? Since I've moved away from the Explorer the Yeoman has me mixed my feelings.
Good point on the phillips tho.

"I took off the scales when I got it ( a while ago ) and the peeing is legit. "
I didn't think seeing a naked SAK would cause a urinary accident ! :rofl:
I've never gotten that excited about a knife. :D

I have an old mag/phillips layer and a newer one. After carrying the explorer, scientist, yeoman and various mods for a time I thought I loved each one, but I am starting to think I just don’t like the magnifying glass enough to warrant carrying the extra layer. I like the phillips of course, but the can opener does the job pretty much 99% of the time along with a plethora of other uses.
I do find it satisfying to start fires with the mag glass but that is so rarely needed - especially if you have a tiny ferro rod in the toothpick slot and tinder in the corkscrew.
Post by: Aloha on December 24, 2022, 05:07:34 AM
My Champion is in another class IMO so I do like to carry it while around the house. As for the mag glass, I enjoyed having it but I finally decided to get a real loop. I believe that was the turning point for me. While I too like the inline phillps I've managed pretty well without it.
I haven't abandoned my Explorer but I'm not sure it'll get quite the pocket time it once did.

It really is a great SAK. I wanted one for so long. Stoked I have one so I can debate with myself the merits :rofl:
