Title: What's on Your Wish List?
Post by: NorCalJim on March 18, 2017, 09:53:58 PM
Let's say that most of us have our "Go-to" SAK(s) nailed down.  In my case, it's the Explorer for around the house and the Minichamp on my keychain for out and about.  For most of us, having a single SAK or a rotation of SAKs does not keep us from wanting more.  :)

So, what's on your wish list?

The Alox MInichamp leads my Alox wish list since I had to cancel my Amazon order after it got stuck in Limbo (marked "In stock" but hadn't shipped after a month). 

The CyberTool 41 is high on my 91mm cellidor scale wish list.  Getting a CT-41 will complete my CyberTool collection. Unfortunately, I was too exuberant and ended up with three CT-34s and two CT-29s.  I had recently purchased the CT Lite and will probably sell/trade my excess CT-34s and CT-29 to end up with one of each in the series.

Thanks to photos by Poncho65 & FolderBeholder featuring the Camping logo, I definitely see a NOS or pristine sample in my future.  My first choice would be a Ranger but a good Camper will do.  This item will probably stay on my wish list for some time since I am willing to be patient in order to end up with one that gleams like Poncho65's.

How about your wish list?

Good idea for a thread Jim!

For me, I would like a custom Super Tinker with titanium scales, but that is far out of my price range.

 A 1951 Soldier, exposed rivet 91mm of any kind, Wenger Tahara, Cybertool 41 and an Astronaut model Master Craftsman are my grails.

I would like a Buffalo horn SwissChamp, or a stag SwissChamp.  or a 125th anniversary SwissChamp.

Sometime soon I'll buy a Pioneer X. A colored one. It'll replace the Climber that's half my current carry (the other half being a Carver). This means losing the corkscrew and t&t, so I'll be adding a Waiter to compensate. However much I try, I can't find any single SAK that satisfies all my wants and needs. Which isn't a problem really, since I like carrying more than one.

Disclaimer: subject to change without notice. And I'll be carrying one or two MiniChamps as well.

A Ti 91mm Carver with corkscrew and scissors sounds like what you need.  ;)

A CT41 (MUST have it within a month, been drooling over it since november), Pioneer X sometime in the future, A 108mm model (preferably a GAK) and a OHO  111mm model.

At the moment my Wish list is a Rambler, a Compact, maybe with yellow scales, and an old Fisherman with proper metal inlay fish. I lost mine as a kid and that printed inlay just isn't the same ... *sighs*

Good grails!  I took a look at my rather modest wish list and realized that I had already purchased most of the SAKs that I wanted.  I also realized that my list was more of what I was planning to get next rather than a true wish list.  The CT-41 is not always available and does qualify as a wish.  I recently passed on s Super Timer with a buy-it-now of just under $300.  The Super Timer definitely goes on the list!  There is a SAK that is on the top of my list but it is currently an active auction item on e-bay and I would rather not invite extra competition. :)

Now is the time to get a CT41. Just noticed a few days ago it's on amazon prime for $137. That saves a lot on shipping because you don't have to pay $30 for "expedited" Japan to USA shipping. "Expedited shipping" meant it took a week to get from Japan instead of three weeks and you got tracking info. Wish it was on prime when I got it last year.


 CyberTool 41, rot transparent https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000MLQRCM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_cqDZybHYGHQN0

Speaking of which... my wish list is all 111mm liner lock models... not so patiently waiting for them to start turning up here... Outrider and Workchamp XL are the highest priority...

(Also have two slide locks on the way as collection items before they go... Outrider and Adventurer)

Wow some great stuff on the lists peeps :o


Already had plenty on a list but now it is even longer :facepalm: :D

I would like some of the larger Swisschamps, a Farmer X (when they finally do ever come out) Master Craftsman, an older cellidor model (read that as several but not enough money :whistle: )  :D and I am sure if I think I could go on and on :ahhh

 :rofl:

Pretty funny but true enough!

During the past three months, I have made a good sized dent in my personal "Want it all". :)

Surprisingly, I watched an e-bay auction for a CT-41 get away without bidding (patiently waiting for the right deal on new or excellent used). It's just a matter of time.
My mysterious "unnamed" item was a Swiss Champ XLT that I passed on when I noticed a scratch on the magnifier.  I love the Swiss Champ and am intrigued by the higher models.  The Swiss Champ XLT and XVAT are both on my wish list.

Meanwhile, I thought I would make some room on my wish list by booting the Alox Minichamp.  I have two keychains corresponding to each of our cars and both are equipped with a Minichamp with more functionality than the Alox version.  It just doesn't make sense to get the Alox Minichamp at this time.

Hovering in the background and not quite in wish list territory is the Wenger or Delemont Evolution 28 (and possibly 23 & EvoGrip S54).

I guess I want it all, one SAK at a time. :)

Alox Solo or Safari Solo? They're both very nice. I can tell from experience.

The 108mm Safari Solo was my favorite while I worked in the fruit trade business.
The 93mm Alox Solo is my lunch knife / apple knife.

The Safari Solo. I really, really like this knife.
At this moment I don't have any Alox models, though they should also be on my whishlist.
I have secret plans of building a custom SAK, with stone/acid washed tools. Or black anodised tools.
It's a plan for the future though. But It might as well be a black Alox. I recon that looks great with blacked out tools.
But those are just plans at the moment, I don't have any equipment yet. Have to build most of it.

Post by: ReamerPunch on March 25, 2017, 02:11:05 PM
Let's see...

SwissTool. I am very satisfied with the Spirit, so I'll go heavy duty. Preferably the plus version, to see just how awesome the wrench set is.

Kershaw A100. It looks nice, and people swear by it. I got a Schrade TT USA and love it, so I'm looking for more models outside the big four manufacturers.

BuckTool. I like the curvy handles. It looks pleasing, and the price will only go up with time.

Bear & Son. I am curious to see how it fairs against other brands.

ParaTool. It's still available, and I kinda like the design.

CenterDrive. I would have two MP600s but Australia Post lost them. Thanks guys. I saw the CD in Bunnings, and liked the size (but not the price). I see no reason to buy a MP600 now that the CD exists, other than finding any for a good price.

JPST. I just want one for the collection, but they are rather expensive. This 'll have to wait.

Locksmith. Great tool selection. I don't have any 111mm with the file.

Garant Centurion. Or maybe a Nomad. I find it ludicrous that the only 111mm Plus Scales are commissioned to them. Hopefully Vic will come to her senses and offer them for their models in the future.

Juice KF4. Got a CS4, and I like the size. That corkscrew is in the way though. It sticks out too much. I would not mind it on it, but I'd rather have a flush handle.

Flair. Speaking of corkscrews, this model is intriguing. I'll snag one before they become impossible to find.

SuperTool. I got a 200 and 300, so it only makes sense.

Squirt E4. I have a P4 and a S4, so again, just to complete the set. Though I'd rather get the ES4. We'll see. Thankfully these are not too bad to find.

It's an ever growing-list.  :facepalm:

I like backup and everything that is really in my day-to-day carry I gotta have in 3. Fortunately I got my prime EDC down but over the past year the Benchmade Mini-Griptillian has sneaked into my EDC, so I need 2 more.

New ones already available
- Victorinox Wine Master

New ones not yet available
- Victorinox CF Cybertool
- Victorinox USB drive

Old ones
- Bloody Wenger  SGT Fix-It and/or SGT Shortix Plus

It's taken several years of exploration, but I've pretty much found what I want in terms of pliers based tools. I've also modded several to make them even better for me. Now I need to offload the surplus.

I'm not there with Swiss knives yet though. I have all the stock versions that I want, and have some mod fodder, but still need a few more parts to build the mods that I would like:

Wenger 85mm metal file and backspring

Wenger 85mm fully serrated blade

93mm scissors and backspring

Inline phillips drilled for doing the 93mm mod that places it opposite the openers.

84mm metal file and backspring (long shot, and not getting my hopes up)

Assorted materials for scales. This is already work in progress, and I have a good friend helping me out with some of them. I have also found suppliers for the rest once I get some funds to work with.

I'm planning on doing some folding knife mods too, and restoring a couple of old razors. Lots of ideas, no funds, erratic health, and everything will be done with minimal tools at my kitchen table.  :D Should be fun.

I also need a 3/8"-16TPI bolt/set screw about 1.1/2" long. I'm assuming it's UNC, but don't have the means to verify  :-\

Top5:

Orange/Black 111mm scales & orange cord

Wait, that's not five is it? Nope, but this is it for the moment.
Recently I bought a Sentinel with the hope of swapping the scales for orange ones.
Sadly they are harder to come by than I thought.

Any number of old and/or rare models that generally go for far more than I'm willing to pay!    :ahhh

You're not on your lonesome there !

I'm still looking for:

Original LM "catalogue" PSTs (both Cabela's "Sportsman's Pocket Multi-Tool" and the Early Winters' "Pocket Toolchest"  version) at a price I'm prepared to pay

Orange LM Squirt (these do exist, but are very, very rare)

LM camo Juices (me and a zillion other MTo members looking for these)

Morley Plier-Knife (again, only at a non-stratospheric price)

Odd coloured Gerber Multi-Lites ( I have Black, Green, Purple/Pink) but other colours may exist.

Japanese LM Mini (seen photos, never heard of an actual tool in the wild).

Copy of LM Mini

Tiger Stripe SOGs ( I have a PowerLock)

First Production Run MTs ( I have Mr Pinchy, MP600, Multi-Lite, Al Mar 4x4 & Quickgrip, Buck 360 & 355, Case Ziplight, Smith & Wesson)

Prototypes of name brand plier-based MTs

Good to see this topic still going! I checked my opening post and see that my wishes have been granted. :)

The CT-41 was a long shot and it seems that there were scores of others trying for it.  After several months, I found one and snatched it up.  I was also able to get an old stock NIB Ranger with the original camping logo and an old stock NIB Camper with foil stamped camping logo.

These days, I have some wish targets with BSA logos but am pretty happy with my collection.

In my wishlist at the moment there are:

- Hercules
- A 1988 wenger swiss army knife

Especially the last. I found some auction online, one is, at the moment, around 30.- and i am really tempted (i guess it will go quite high, as it seems pretty unused). The problem is that i spent a lot of money this month already :D I don't know if i should try to get it or not :/

Dunno, but I haven't bought a SAK for a few months and I want something.  I'm thinking knifeless Cybertool and something with a sheepsfoot blade...   Might have to take a bunch of victims donors down the garage and see what crawls out. >:D

My wishlist currently still revolves around mods. Not necessarily the parts, but just the window of circumstance, and good fortune with the results.

The Mega84 V1 needs rebuilding as the V2
The Sheepsfoot Duke needs to become the Townie
The Mega74, Mega91, and Mega93 need creating
Brian needs a new suit
 
I appreciate that none of those will make much sense... yet ... and they'll all be several months in the making.

I also have a few other concepts that I'd like to play around with before setting my heart on specific goals.
Title: Re: What's on Your Wish List?
Post by: Harris on September 07, 2018, 01:19:48 AM
How about both an 84 mm and 91 mm Recruit with an inline awl replacing the small blade, or a Spartan or Tinker with a sheeps foot blade replacing the small blade.

Post by: Sawl Goodman on September 08, 2018, 11:45:51 AM
My current and highly positive experience with a "two hand opening" (is this how you say it?) Centurion has put me on the lookout for a two handed Trailmaster/Trekker (I need a saw).

Why not a plain edge OHT? Because I want comfort when I'm sawing and I'm OK to go without OHO to achieve it.

A one handed Centurion! :)

This ties in with the minimalism thread noted the other day... that's my minimal 111mm sak :)

Sounds great! It's a fantastic knife, so why not issue a version that's quicker to open, too?  :pok:

My SAK wishlist for the next few months:

- Pioneer X
- Executive
- Wenger Evogrip S16 (less preferred but more likely: Vic Evo S16)
- Spirit X
- A birthyear SAK (1980)
- I have two spare Exlorers, planning to have them modded into a Scientist and a Yeoman
- pretty low on the list, but at some point, just to have an 84 mm Alox too: Cadet

And after these? Actually, I'll be pretty happy with my collection at that point, but of course there are always something new/old/rare/nice one can long for... :)
