Title: The Pioneer X Owners Club
Post by: yud on May 06, 2016, 02:12:19 PM
Finally someone listen to the millions screaming out in pain and made an Alox knife with scissors.  In celebration we here today are froming a club to celebrate ownership of the Pioneer X.

And likely argue about the nail nick.

The Pioneer X is top of my SAK EDC food-chain at the moment. I cannot see how another production SAK can displace it.  :tu:

This sure was a long time in the making. Considering how long it took women to get the vote in Switzerland though, i think we should be quite happy.

Glock 26 9mm?

I'm awaiting arrival of a Pioneer X this week.  I would think this model would be as popular, if not more popular as a Farmer.

Now maybe we might see a Pioneer Pruner X or Pioneer Electrician X?

I would also like to see a small blade Pioneer X (electrician, pruner or sm. pen blade) and a hefty combo tool instead of the bottle opener.

The Pioneer X is hard wearing and tough, more than any Compact or Climber could be.

Even if you lose the OHO knife and the small pistol (Glock 27 in .40) the Pioneer X will still be carried.

Pioneer X arrived today.  If the nail nick was switched to the opposite side because of production concerns (differentiating 3mm vs 2.5mm pivot holes) maybe they can find a different production solution and return the nail nick to the expected location.  It is rather odd to try to open it and I'm not sure it was a very good decision to change it for production reasons.  If they do decide to switch it back in the near future, we may have a future collectible.

I'd still like to see and "X" version with a small blade (pen blade, electrician's blade or similar).

If that is truly the reason, I wonder how they manage with the saw which is identical between 91mm and 93mm apart from the pivot hole.

Regarding some above comments.

I carry SAK tweezers and toothpick in my wallet. Although not nearly as convenient as on the handle of a SAK, I have had occasions to use them. So there is no reason to do without just because your SAK carry is a Pioneer X. I did, as suggested by someone try, using a drink stirring straw as an improvised holder or sheath, but it disintegrated with time. I would like to make a little flat holder out of Tyvek or something similar to make access easier. Ultimately I want to get a little holder made out of very thin Kydex / Concealex for the toothpick, tweezer, and perhaps the small SAK pen. It could be carried in several ways, e.g., on a keychain.

As I posted elsewhere about the nail nick:
Quote
An interesting detail that can be seen in the pictures of the Pioneer X or read about in the discussion in the thread at the Swiss Forum involve the scissors themselves. For those who have not wandered over to the other thread, the detail is that the nail nick is on the opposite of the scissors than the regular 91mm line. At least one person did not care for it as it cut across the slant on the outside of the scissors. Unless one has the scissors open and staring at them, say in a photo, I don't think the visual purity matters, and once it matters I don't think I care. [;)]   I think I prefer it on the outside rather than an inner face anyway. There is a lot of speculation as to why that was done. One reason I recall being advanced was to keep the scissors straight at the factory so they do not get mixed up. The other reason was so that one could install them on the new longer 111mm One Handed Soldier and still reach the nick.


I don't recall anyone bringing up the ergonomics as a reason, but that would be why I like the new position. Now all tools open from one side except the straight line awl which is tucked away on the other side anyway. So now when I grab the knife with my thumb on the emblem or shield, as a right hander, there is no confusion. I am ready to open any tool. (If one is left handed your thumb would be on the same side but on the end away from the shield.)


In the 91mm line the standard position of the nick always leads to a bit of confusion for me. I imagine some frequent SAK users may avoid this, but I feel it requires a bit of concentration when you grab the knife to orient it as both the blade and the scissors are visually long. Now the blade and the scissors may open toward different ends of the knife, but from the same side. I like this better. Moreover, as I mentioned, now you grab the knife one way to open any tool except the awl and that seems natural anyway.

Perhaps I should have said less confusion as 91mm scissors habits occasionally crop up. ;)

My Pioneer X arrived so I'll be carrying it for a while. [:)]

Some specifications for comparison purposes and carry decisions. Knife model, Handle length, Weight, Thickness (measured above the rivet in the middle, not on the rivet. Thicknesses varied a bit depending on how hard I turned the caliper screw by a few hundredths of a mm. On the celidor or Stay Glow models I used a similar measurement position, just up from the middle.


Knife Model                    Handle Length  Ounces  Thickness

Wenger Standard Issue        93.1mm        2.4       11.56 mm to 11.58mm
Victorinox Soldier                 93.1 mm        2.4       11.62mm - 11.66mm

Climber                                 91mm           2.9        16.76mm thick (Stay Glow handle)
Huntsman                              91mm          3.4        19.15 to 19.10 thick (Stay Glow handle)

Although I think the absence of a saw blade makes the Pioneer X a bit more svelte for urban carry, like the Climber versus the Huntsman, I still look forward to a Farmer X. I do not see a crossed fingers emoticon up above, but here is hoping! The saw just adds so much power for a relatively thin layer, even only used occasionally. A Farmer X would be excellent in those pictures posted with pistols, after all a saw can be used to clear shooting lanes. Personally, I am more likely to use it to trim a branch in my yard. :)

My Pioneer X with a Bob Lessard "Urban Pioneer" I acquired a couple of years ago.

The factory Pioneer X has been my only carry for the last two weeks.

What made you get an X if you already have a scissor having Alox?

Aloxia is a common disease in this area of cyberspace Harley, alox produces powerful symptoms in the afflicted including feelings of euphoria and extreme compulsive episodes. Aloxia has no known cure. It is treatable, but it appears to be something that can only be managed by making the disease progessively worse. Aloxia starts with a small benign object, usually around 93mm in length, but sometimes even smaller, there have been cases of a single 58mm object growing into a full-blown multi-dimensional obsession.  There are reports of the disease growing beyond many boundaries both financial and physical, sometimes dragging innocent bystanders into the disease or horrifying others with it's bizarre symptoms. So far there have been no reported casualties, but there have been some unfortunate mishaps, and mild social awkwardness is fairly common in sufferers, who seek comfort from other victims via the interweb. Using slang terms such as 'aloxaholic', etc. are common indicators of those who are aware of this uncatastrophic disease, and may possibly have Aloxia themselves.

The PX has been a good EDC model for me so far. Since I have been using the awl for most of the things I use the small blade for, and not needing a corkscrew lately, I barely miss my Climber. I also like the heavier main blade and openers on the 93's, so it's been working out well. Maybe I'll break my Explorer's record with this one, only 7 or 8 years to go!  :)

I grabbed mine the other day to open the box with the awl and as I opened it, it cut my thumb. The awl on my X is almost as sharp as the main blade.  :facepalm:

I've had "keen" edged awls on other ALOX but not like this! It almost passes the paper test!

Hi All!

Long time lurker, owner of a Huntsman, a RangerWood 55 and a Swisstool Spirit, been looking at an Alox for a while but the RangerWood taught me to appreciate the scissors at my Huntsman for EDC, been on the fence of picking up "another" SAK (slippery slope, if the posts at this forum are any indication)

Wifey actually bought me the Pioneer X for father's day.

That is a stupid name - it will never sell with a name like that. Come on dks, up your game or this ship is sunk before it sets sail.

What about 'The slightly less useful Aluminium scaled 7 function pocket knife'.

you are right, Pioneer just sounds too american....

Maybe the "Alps", or "Grant"  :P  or the "Swiss" or the "Red Cross".....

Maybe we need a poll??

How about a name made up of one of the 4 languages of Switzerland?:

Italian: coltello da tasca sette funzione

French: couteau de poche de sept fonction

German: sieben Funktionstaschenmesser

Klingon: Soch Qap SutwIj qoDDaq taj (my favourite)

Maybe it should be named 'Descissored Knife - Swiss' in your honour? You're welcome.

OK, if this is what the public wants,  I will accept the honour  :salute:  Maybe we can just shorten the name, using maybe the first letters from each word, to make it easier for non native english speakers?

I'm not sure - I've only ever seen plain silver. We could make enquiries with some of our forum modificationers. I have some nice paints here in the U-Boat. Mostly grey but I'm sure there was some red and blue as well.

I like the way you think dks. I hope using a fancy steel won't put people off buying it.

I have looked into the colour question. I can only produce silver colour, but can offer different levels of focus. Such as:
(http://i923.photobucket.com/albums/ad80/magentus2112/f2c59de4-4d5d-47bc-8a3c-36f9a11076d0_zpsamhglyyx.jpg) (http://s923.photobucket.com/user/magentus2112/media/f2c59de4-4d5d-47bc-8a3c-36f9a11076d0_zpsamhglyyx.jpg.html)

Or:
(http://i923.photobucket.com/albums/ad80/magentus2112/53f4a789-a7c5-4c1f-9d43-1e2864460fb8_zpsl5ml3csn.jpg) (http://s923.photobucket.com/user/magentus2112/media/53f4a789-a7c5-4c1f-9d43-1e2864460fb8_zpsl5ml3csn.jpg.html)

And a left handed version:
(http://i923.photobucket.com/albums/ad80/magentus2112/a1151b5a-7204-420f-9023-d9dc1224d192_zpsxkqfuil9.jpg) (http://s923.photobucket.com/user/magentus2112/media/a1151b5a-7204-420f-9023-d9dc1224d192_zpsxkqfuil9.jpg.html)

The two places I know of in Europe that have coloured Pioneer Xs are these, I have the LCSAS one, as I liked the Swiss flags on the nameplate on the back:


http://www.couteaux-du-so...rinox-pioneer-x-red-lcsas (http://www.couteaux-du-soldat-suisse.ch/J02/index.php/en/product/749-vic-0-8231-20r4-victorinox-pioneer-x-red-lcsas) (only 2 left!)

I'm pretty sure LCSAS, at least, will deliver to the US


In the latest Swiss Bianco newsletter he's said the US store will be selling coloured Pioneer X models, but without the key ring nub (to be different, I guess). These models will have Swiss Bianco on the blade, but no nameplate logo (I'm not keen on blade markings myself).

I'd like a blue model and I'm planning to use it, so I guess I'll wait.

Nothin wrong with that. I plan to carry and use mine. I'm not worried about resale. I'm buying it for myself, not the next owner.

I heard that Blade Stamp on Swissbianco SAK's is the result of Victorinox policy for non-standard SAKs (be it models or colors)

I think we should petition DLTTrading or Cutlery Shoppe to order some. I wonder if we got together a big group buy willing to pre-order if they would?
I'm in! I figured they would have been here by now. Guess I'm just impatient.
Still waiting because I thought one of them would have received a shipment of colored Pioneer X's by now. I even left comments to both companies on social media to do so. I don't see why they would not... maybe Victorinox is taking their time, they do seem to treat N. America as their secondary market sometimes.

I want one of the red ones so bad, but $80 makes me feel like a fool. I'm worried the red won't be available here and I don't want a blade stamp.  :poh:


The ones from LCSAS don't have a blade stamp, but instead have the nice Swiss flags logo on the back scale (see my pics). They cost 55 CHF, which is about $55, plus shipping, but LCSAS do ship to the USA. Only one left of their current stock in red, though!:

Only took a few days to receive mine from Switzerland to the UK, so at least they seem to send them out quite fast. I think the LCSAS one is the nicest of all the coloured Pioneer X versions I've seen, don't think you'll regret the purchase!

Good to hear they ship out fast, but I picked a pretty busy time of year to order. At least I have the pics of yours to look at till mine arrives.  :cheers:
I agree that the red LCSAS is one of the best looking I've seen. If you have to put your mark on a SAK what better than the Swiss Cross.

Pioneer X or modded 91mm scissors?

I like the look. It's kind of a lighter wash than some I've seen, at least the way it shows up on my screen. And I love that green! Is that the dunkelgrün or darker? I can smell the mossy brook just looking at it. Nice knots too. Way beyond my comfort zone with paracord tying.  Very nice and very new looking for a used one.

X or modded 91mm?  Hmmmm  :think: I never thought it could be a modded 91mm, but that does make sense.  The seller called it a Pioneer X, so I just figured it was.  The wash is pretty true to how the screen shows it, not too dark.  I think it was the green scales that made me love it most...though I don't know which green it is.
The lanyard came with it.  :tu:

As you might be getting the idea by now, the modded version of a Pioneer X is preferred here over the factory version ;) :D The brass and green do go together very nice :dd:

I have been carrying my silver Pioneer X non stop for months now (except for the few days I misplaced it--I felt lost. lol). The scissors work quite fine for me when I need them.

IMO, the scissors are the best part of the pioneer. If all the tools I've been the most impressed with them. Mine got a work out today cutting  lengths of paracord. Never even faltered.

The capability of the scissors was never in question for me. It was the placement of the nail nick. Now that I've carried it a few days I've gotten use to it and actually like that I don't have to spin the knife around to access it.

Grim and dark - even outside there's barely enough light to take photos.
That thing in the front is supposed to be green, though it looks coal black on my screen.
Red and grey are more photogenic - Schweizer Messer were right about moving their S to the blade...

Sorry for the late reply Nascar.  It's a standard 2-3 layer Vic Zermatt pouch with a steel.  I can't find the number right now.   That's the smaller Light my Fire firesteel...maybe a "Mini"?

Nice collection!

Correct me if I'm wrong. Am I looking at a Pioneer X, minichamp alox, Farmer, Electrician, and Harvester?

You are correct TY, that is the vendor, so that post is basically a mini brochure.

Well, the clip doesn’t set flat on the scale. There is the adhesive strip. I’ll get a close up pic later and post it.

One thing to remember here is I used a used clip. The clip was originally on something else and when I removed it I had to scrap the original adhesive strip. I bought some 3M strips and trimmed them to fit. 

When first installed, the strip was very gooey and moveable. Once setting overnight it becomes very rigid, yet flexible enough.

Yes!!! If Victorinox release the PX in black and other colors, I would snatch them up. I have noticed a blue PX but never could determine a source. I voted red in the recent survey for the PX as the 2016 MT of the Year because that was already the majority preference but if multiple colors were available, I would go with black first, followed by blue, green and red.

Let's hope we have some color choices like the Cadet and Pioneer!

You're right. So I'm now reconfiguring my SAKs and will put the 58mm Rogue in my other pocket also.

The keyring is really a hotspot. What was Victorinox thinking!

And now I understand why jaya doesn't like the scissors nail nick, it's too recessed and on the "wrong" side.

But I still really like this beast.

Both the PX and Minichamp Alox gets my vote... As to which one to get, really depends on priorities first... Then you can get the other, once pocket funds allows for it...

I've got them both and they are both very desirable SAKs with differing capabilities. The question is which one do you need--a small multi-tool that packs many tools in a tiny package or a larger, heavier duty tool stressing a more useful size blade, scissors, inline awl and openers/drivers? The PX was my first Alox purchase and the only 93mm alox to offer scissors. For me, the larger, heavier duty PX is too much to give up.

Pioneer X, for the win.  :D

I got my Pioneer X not long after they were available here in the US. I've had one in my pocket ever since. Lost the first one I bought for a time, and I went through withdrawal for about a week waiting for DLT Trading to send me another one. My regular, non-X Pioneers are just not the same.

I've wondered where to get the occasional blue, red or black Pioneer X that I have seen on this forum. I finally discovered that they are from Swiss Bianco (Googled Swiss Bianco yesterday and followed the link to the site). I noticed that they have a black Pioneer X available for $80. I am tempted but it is more than I want to spend considering that the PX I have will probably continue to be the one I will use.

Yes I've seen those as well but I refuse to pay that much for a SAK.

Given that a PX can still be had for less than $40, we would be paying twice as much for a color option that will fade with regular use. That's the part that doesn't make sense to me.

It seems that most times that I need to use a blade, it's from a conventional 91mm Cellidor SAK.  Well, yesterday I needed to cut some paracord and I had my Alox storage drawer out and the PX was the closest at hand...I am always impressed with these blades from the 93mm Alox SAKs! They feels so much more substantial than the 91mm blades.

I work for TLS (Toyota Logistics Services). We are part of TMS (Toyota Motor Sales). I am in Georgetown, KY and we are located adjacent to the Toyota factory (TMMK-Toyota Motor Manufacture Kentucky). We have people working at the end of the shipping lines (Plant 1- Avalons and Camrys, Plant 2- Camrys and Plant 3- Lexus ES 350...) and we actually buy the cars from the plants, put on the Monroney Label (price sheet), other various stickers and books in glove box and throw carpet or all weather mats in the trunk.

Then shuttles take those cars over to our lot where other options are installed and then the cars are staged for shipping via rails or truck.

I am currently at the Buyoff location at the Lexus Plant. That picture was in my break room above the shipping line.

This picture is looking out the window to the left of the other picture.

Let me tell you, the 2018 Camry launch has been horrible!  Yard hold after yard hold!  Seems like they just can’t make the new Camry without there being some sort of problem!

They were so far behind because of all the problems that we were working 2.5 hours over everyday and several saturdays to get caught up. For several months!   Finally get all caught up and another few problems pop up.

Looks like all is well now. The two plants making the Avalon and Camry have stopped calling all the overtime.

I went to Lexus this month to work (@ TLS we pick our area every month...) because they had little to zero overtime. Now plant 2 where I was working is calling zero and Lexus IS calling an hour or more!  Karma!!!  Haha

Nice job. I've removed the key ring attachment point from a dozen SAK's, sometimes with more finesse than others. The key thing is to have it feel good in pocket and hand. (sory 'bout that pun.)

I've got two PX's: one with the key chain attachment and one without. And I'm constantly thinking about grinding the attachment point of the one that still has it.

try approaching the nick from the end of the tool, instead of plunging down into it from where the nick starts, let the thumbnail slide into it parallel instead of perpendicular, seems to be a bit better for me

The PX is my favorite Alox SAK.

The Soldier and Cadet are my other favorite Alox SAKs.

I hear ya, El C.

I've noticed that what I do is to use my left thumb nail to lift the scissors, and my right index finger to finish deploying them. I think that's what I do.  :think:

Anyway, give the 30-day PX challenge a shot (yes, you can do it) and you'll see that the nail nick issues seems to dissolve like the head on a nice brew.  :cheers:

Yup, ran into the scissors nail nick "problem" this morning too. To an old codger like me (after all I'm way past my first half century  :rofl:), this is going to take some time getting used to  :D

Edit: cursory comparison between a PX and my SwissChamp reveals striking similarities between their respective scissors, with the notable exception of the position of the nail nick. Assuming that the rest (tang profile?) is identical between the two, I can see some mods on the horizon... (no, not of the red beauty, of course  >:D).

Title: Re: The Pioneer X Owners Club

Is anyone offering PX scissor-opening lessons?

Really?  :think:

Step 1: "Hold the beautiful and incredibly nice PX in your right hand, with the legendary Victorinox Shield and Cross oriented facing toward your own person." "Nice. Well done, children."

Step 2: "With your left (sinister) hand, use your thumbnail to engage the nail-nick." "Wow, you all really have a knack for this." "Now; using your left-hand thumbnail and your right-hand fingers, pull the scissors out and up while you pull the body of the PX down." "That's right, boys and girls." "You have now deployed the legendary SAK 91/93mm scissors." "Many sheeple don't know how to do this complex task, but you have!" "Wow, you are amazing and will probably become astronauts based on this one skill alone!"

Step 3: Snip something.

I'm right-handed, but even I don't have an issue deploying the PX scissors. I find it hard to believe that a talented musician who can manipulate an E-string with his left hand, whilst strumming a B string with his right hand, has difficulty of opening a pair of scissors.  :twak:

This, from a musical incompetent and overall klutz.   :facepalm:

Perhaps a few minutes practice?   :pok:

Ok, just went & dug mine out of the drawer, I tried both opening with the right &  left thumbs in the nail nick. Admittedly I have tough nails but I had no trouble opening either way. Left thumbnail in the nail nick was easier though. It was noticeably easier than using the right thumb. At least for me.........YMMV.

Butch,

I've gotten to an age where I like to take a nap in the afternoon. Might be a short nap, but a little nap is nice. However, sometimes I have a dream. Sometimes a nice dream, one where I'm eating ice cream on a warm day while puppies play and tomatoes ripen in the sun. But sometimes the dreams aren't so pleasant. I had a bad dream the other day. In this dream I handed my nephew a standard flat-head/slotted screwdriver. He looked at me and asked where the "on" button was. The ground seemed to melt under my feet. Fortunately I woke up before anything more worrisome occurred.

Not sure why I mentioned that dream here.....maybe I need another nap..... ;)

I'm doing a 180° on my previous thumb suggestion, I found a better way, hold in right hand with shield facing down and key ring facing right you can grab the nick with your left index fingernail and get it started and then let your thumb finish the job as its in the proper place for us ape related creatures.

this method is not as awkward and you don't feel like your gonna slice yourself as with the thumb/shield up method

Ok, this dream is telling us something. It may be significant that it was your nephew, not a son or daughter. Of course you may not have a son or daughter, so it may not be anything other than it was your nephew. Was the screwdriver a Craftsman, Snapon, Mac, Proto or a cheapo wooden handled on from the 99 cent bin? The brand could have great meaning. Especially if the brand name rhymes with your nephews name.
Now to put this all in context, if this were a Peanuts comic strip, I would be sitting in the Doctors booth with my Lucy mask on & telling you to pay 5 cents please................. heckydern I don't know??????????????? :think:

That red MTO PX is absolutely stunning! The coloured Alox really has distinguished look about it...

May I ask, what is the taped area on your silver PX? Is that a pocket clip of some sort?

Yes, it is a Nite Ize Hip Clip covered with tape. I work around new cars and need to not scratch them. LOL

Tried taking a license plate off with mine today, needless to say it didn’t work. Had to run in the house and get a full size screwdriver, the one I tried to undo with the PioneerX was a little rusted tight, I’m sure if I worked it I could have got it to pop, plus I was using the can opener on a Philips and I didn’t want to break it, now the other, forget it, it took two hands with a full size screwdriver to get it to snap!

Warning: Admiring great photos of wonderful Alox models can lead to purchases!  I was happily browsing the "What's your latest SAK?" topic and the next thing I know, I am over at DLT Trading buying two Pioneer Xs (black & blue) and a 2018 special edition red Pioneer.

I remember purchasing a standard Pioneer X and having the belief that this would be my one and only Vic Alox purchase.  At the time, I was fond of the Super Tinker and made frequent use of the blade and scissors tools.  The Pioneer X was a SAK dream come true compared with the Super Tinker with better build quality and slightly larger blade.  I couldn't imagine the need to get any more Alox SAKs.

Meanwhile, those in the Alox & Pioneer topic areas treated my declaration with amusement. I was told that there was no known cure for Alox Addiction and that it was just a matter of time before I came down with it.  I never did come down with Alox addiction but I did end up with a storage container full of Alox SAKs.  :whistle:

My standard PX along with my MTO special edition red PX will soon be joined by black and blue PXs.  This time, I am not claiming to be finished with any further purchases.  I love it when waiting for something special to be delivered!

I finally purchased a black Pioneer X from DLT to go with my black Pioneer and black Farmer. I've carried it for a month to give it a fair trial. In my opinion Victorinox really missed the mark with the left-hand scissors. I'm old, arthritic and right-handed. I do not like the placement of the nail nick for the scissors and find it very difficult for me to open them; therefore my Pioneer X is side tracked to the drawer, no longer considered for EDC. I certainly favor the Alox in line awl, but when scissors are needed I will put my Climber in service.

For me the caplifter opens up much easier, possibly due to the short radius or the scissor spring is stronger; also the nail nick is larger and deeper on the caplifter. My opinion, for what it's worth.

I don’t like the PX scissors either. I’ve cut myself a few times trying to open them. I’ve learned how to do it safely but I have to concentrate so I don’t cut myself.

My major issue with the reverse nail nick is that the only reason they made it like that is to be sure they don't mix them up with the 91mm.  Could they not have found a better way to address the not mixing it up issue?

...it's good to learn new things, but in this case they could have allowed the consumer to just open the scissors the way they're used to doing it.

A bit late to the party, but now I can join the club, as the Mrs. gifted me a Pioneer X for Christmas. In her words "the big brother" of the Alox Minichamp she surprised me with back in September.

First impressions after a couple of days: It's more hefty, more boxy than I was expecting, but still very pocketable. The nail nick on the scissors is annoying and awkward, but I'm getting used to it. Also, the bane of the 93 mm Alox models, the keyring hole was as uncomfortable as on my Pioneers, so it deserved the same fate: filing into oblivion - now it sits in my palm nicely.

Just passing through  :D

I got a Pioneer X a few days ago, the final piece of fodder for a planned mod later in the year. I filled the tread on the scales with some adhesive and brass powder so I can carry it (hate the feel of 93mm/84mm alox) and have given it a few days pocket time.

I wanted to see what the fuss was about regarding the nail nick placement, and now appreciate what people were grumbling about. It really does make fishing the scissors out more awkward, and there is no design advantage in use to moving that to the outside face. After some thought, I think I know why they did it, but wish they hadn't. I'll be drilling out some 91mm scissors for the mod, and getting that nail nick back where it belongs.

The other significant annoyance is the lanyard ring spacer, which really screws up the ergonomics of the knife, particularly when using the main blade or can opener. That will have to go too.

Aside from that, the knife is a good size and weight, and I do like knives that don't give two spear blades. I don't mind knives with more than one blades, so long as there's a significant difference to any additional blades, such as a hawkbill or serrations.

I think I've learned enough about this knife to confine it to the mod fodder pile, and go back to one of my regular carry options. I like the fact that there's now a proper scissor spring available for 93mm mods, but as it stands, I'm afraid I wouldn't want to carry the Pioneer X as it comes from the factory.

Post by: AimlessWanderer on March 01, 2019, 09:58:19 PM
For Aloha, and anyone else wondering about the scissor access...

The spine of the main blade, and the spine of the can opener are pretty much the same height, and rising at the same angle, so in theory, the nail nick is no more obstructed being on the outside edge as it is on the Pioneer X, to being on the inside as it is on the 91mm knives

(Pic 1 below)

What makes the difference, is that on the 91mm knives, there's plenty of space between the spine of the blade and the nail nick, (Pic 2 below) because you are reaching over the lower scissor blade (left hand side as pictured below), but now on the 93mm, the nail nick is tight up against the adjacent tool, the can opener (right hand side as pictured)

I've thought long and hard as to why they did this, and can only reach one conclusion. At a glance differentiation of parts. It stops the stores pulling the wrong parts, or at least gives the assemblers chance to notice, before they drop scissors drilled 3mm in a 91mm knife. There's no other reason to move it, or to change tooling from the smaller framed version. I wish they'd chosen to mark the tang in some way instead, which would have allowed them some differentiation, without making it harder to get in to the nail nick.

Post by: twiliter on March 02, 2019, 01:32:38 AM
The nail nick is reversed on the new 111mm linerlock Outrider too, also a bigger pin size. I think Syph investigated this at length in a Mod Squad thread somewhere...

Too bad they don't use a screw joint anymore, it would be a simple matter to screw a 91mm handle onto a 93mm scissors, the moving part has the nick.  :-\

The Pioneer X is perfect for the office.

Knife blade for food preparation, reamer for opening boxes and letters, scissors for cutting, can opener for screwing, bottle opener for screwing, too, and also for when the working day ends and the beer begins.

My Pioneer X, the lanyard ring was annoying, so I dremeled it away. It's a really sturdy knife and I like the fact it has scissors. But that nail nick...  Why, oh why?

Post by: Buzzbait on May 15, 2019, 04:15:03 PM
I got in a Pioneer X yesterday, without first reading anybody's comments on the knife. Within the first couple minutes of playing with it, I was sort of convinced that maybe mine was defective,, as it was so hard to get at the nail nick on the scissors. But now after a bit of reading, I see that this is a common concern. It's not really that bad, and I probably wouldn't even mention it if was from any other manufacturer. I guess I'm just used to Victorinox always nailing this stuff perfectly.

Will I carry it? I'm not sure yet. It feels quite a bit heavier and fatter than my precious OC Pioneer, and I find the standard silver alox to be kind of boring. I think I may have to get myself a colored one if I'm going to give it a real chance. I may require a pocket clip as well, due to the weight.
Title: Re: The Pioneer X Owners Club
Post by: Thunderpants on May 15, 2019, 05:35:06 PM
I can't say the weight of my green X bothers me at all. I mean there are plenty of SAKs which I find too bulky and heavy to bother with but the X seems to me to be just about perfect.
I do wish Victorinox were a bit more liberal with their coloured alox - I've only ever seen the X in standard red, blue and green (though I think there are two shades of green - I would call mine a nice & dark British Racing Green) - but some other funky colours would be very welcome.
An orange Pioneer X would basically be my grail SAK... let's see if Vic ever makes one in my lifetime!

Does anyone know where I can get a Pioneer X (Alox, Blue) :gimme:  :drool: either in, or shipped to, the UK.

I've tried all the well known sites (and the Swiss Store, London) to no avail. All I can get is the bog standard silver.. :rant:

I have checked the website you kindly suggested unfortunatley, it appears they don't deliver to the UK (it's not an option on the drop down menu)

I can only presume that this is due to the restrictions put in place over the last few years (Offensive Weapons Act 2019) I had the same problem trying to order a Leatherman from across the pond  :ahhh :rant:

Can I join the club?   :) My first post and it's here in the Pioneer X club.

Saw the color and HAD to have it!  You can probably guess my favorite color  ;)

It has such an awesome balance of size, feel and heft.  Only strange thing to me was the scissors nick, almost like it's on the wrong side.

But hey, I say that about every SAK in my collection. Not so much a pouch as a wheelbarrow sized problem ... and one I'm happy to have   :rofl:

I'm in, I was modding Pioneers and adding the scissors layer long before the production Pioneer X was released. Pictured are one of my original modded Pioneer "X" models and a "Cadet X" that I modded from a cadet and donor scissors, thought I would try a different direction on the scissors on the Cadet X. Now if Victorinox would only make a production Cadet X.....

I must be the only person that isn't annoyed by the wrong side nick.

On the other hand - I might be the only one who's thumbnail gets twisted clean off each time I get to the half-stop of the screwdriver.   :think:

I'm thinking of starting my own impromptu PioneerX challenge tomorrow - June 1st. 

With the world somewhat upside down, I've felt like the Challenges have been fun to do, and to follow along as well.

If anyone is interested, keep an eye out for the new thread (if I do ultimately decide to go for it).  Please do join if you can, the more the merrier!   :cheers:

Ah my good man - but have you been preserving your blade's edge for necessary jobs? Opening packages in a manner that keeps glue off your blade? Opening clamshell packages in a safer way? Saving the point of your knife for when you really need to use it?  Opening foodstuffs in a manner that doesn't raise an alarm? Opening finicky packages within seconds?  Clipping loose threads without ruining your hem? Trimming your nosehairs minutes before meeting with the boss?  I should think not sir!   :hatsoff:

Does anyone else become slightly annoyed with the scissors nail nick on the PX? I cut my teeth on the Fieldmaster so I always feel for the blade and can find the scissors after (if that makes sense). Perhaps I’m just being difficult or trying to find a reason to dislike the PX

:whistle: :rofl:

Oddly enough, I am quite used to the nail nick on the PX scissors (such that the Champ scissors require some searching). 
I know exactly where to find it - I hold the knife "by the suspension clip" (in a manner of speaking for illustrative purposes) in the left hand, with the shield facing me.  all the nail nicks are now facing me as well.  So for the scissors, I go straight to the right side, middle layer. 

What might be awkward is - in that orientation, the right hand would have to arc over the left hand to open the scissors.  But what I do out of habit is open the scissors "upside down" in reference to the way I open the knife blade.  Similar to what is seen in this GIF, but with my right thumbnail in the nick and the handle in the left hand.  (hands reverse of image)

On a side note - I tried to open the knife as seen in the GIF and since I am right handed, I dont feel safe using my left thumbnail for the pull.  I switch hands once I open the knife every time.

:whistle: :rofl:

Doesn't really bother me at all. Got used to it pretty quick. It just has a little less room on the nail nick cause the can opener is in the way more.

What i find however, is that the back spring on the scissors has noticeably less snap than on the cellidor models.... Maube it's just tha lack of a tool in the back, and it being peen'd down in the middle rather than "floating" like on the cellidor models...  :think:

Although the cellidor models have a certain acoustical snap to them, I have always found the snap, in terms of the force, is far greater on the 93mm alox.
I find that I need to get a finger under the scissor as soon as I can on the PX/FX in order to open them.

Same here.  It's also my only SAK where I don't take extra care to keep the blades in line, and not do a backflip... disengaging the spring upon opening.  Normally I would worry that the moving parts are a prime target for breakage. But in this case I make an exception as the risk of a premature closure or flesh wound is more dear than a replacement leaf spring.

Well... all i can say is i'm very surprised by this....

Both my PX's came, new out of the box, with a noticeably less spring snap on the scissors than any of my cellidor models, especially when closing them  :o
Maybe they got complaints about excessive spring snap on the scissors and decided to tone it down a little or maybe it's just mine...   :dunno:
Maybe it will loosen up over time with use.

All other tools, yes.... way more spring snap that cellidor models for sure  :ahhh

Im talking about both things... separately... but at the same time. 

I'm saying that because the backspring of the tool is so stiff, I have to make an adjustment in how I open the tool.  In order to get the scissors out in a safe and fluid motion (which is problematic because of the backspring) I need to "catch" it, or and pull the handle instead of the scissors.  This results in what can potentially damage the leaf spring if I'm not careful.

Oh, ok... I got it now  :tu:

I'm really surprised that the springs on some PX are so stiff, and yet even more surprised mine aren't...   :think:
My main issue is more on closing the scissors than opening it. I think it's down to the peening, i think... It feels like when the tools are a bit over peen'd and a bit stiff opening and closing.
But like i've said before, it will probably loosen over time with use letting the stronger back spring put the pressure on it more freely

I do have waaayyy more spring snap than on a 91mm model

Heres a picture of what I mean... I hope .  The un-fixed handle of the scissors rotating further apart, and coming away from the leaf spring...
Where did you get that clip for the lanyard?

Got to love the PX - my first was the Damascus 2016, since added several green and blue scales versions, but this is my first mod of sorts with anodised Ti scales (can’t get enough Ti) and the main blade from a peace themed harvester because I just had to have a dove on this one!

Mine also resides comfortably in a drawer—a designated “orange Alox” drawer, in my case. Last October’s “Old Cross Challenge” renewed my deep and abiding love for the OC Pioneer, so it gets pride of place in my pocket most days.

if i understand correctly, there are multiple orange alox pieces in there, not just this PioneerX LE.
If so, i wouldn't mind sneaking a peak, so feel free to post the pic of the insides of that dedicated drawer.

the difficulty with mods is that it voids warranty's and I prefer to have my knives covered by Victorinox and their workmanship has always been done well for my liking and at very reasonable prices. Thanks Victorinox for not being greedy gougers like some other slip joint knife maker's like one's in the U.S. that want to use U.S. made as if it has some kind of significance in quality.

Zoidberg and Ben, I am curious if the Pioneer XS mod is still in use? And your long term thoughts on it.  I have considered it on paper but am still in the honeymoon phase with the PX. I haven’t even really carried it due to doing other challenges.  A 2 layer alox with scissors is mighty tantalizing.   [ This attachment cannot be displayed inline in 'Print Page' view ]

Yes absolutely, three plus years now and still loving it.
Unless I'm in a challenge I rarely carry anything else.
I have the same in 91mm and one of these days I'll do it to my cadet.

Couple things to think about with the PX version.
The scissor nail nick is on the other side.
While you can get used to it I prefer the 91mm side.
Easy enough to swap the scissors out.
Secondly the spring tension is much more than needed.
Removing a little from the scissor back spring or scissors pivot area makes them a lot more user friendly.

Thank you, good to know. The action on the scissors out of the box is unlike any of my 91mm scissors the way it has tons of snap and tension when opening, but it is pretty weak closing unless I give it a push. Maybe it just needs some breaking in. I think this mod is in my future at some point, and I may try to do pivots instead of peening.

I've got these two, and the more I carry them, the more I like them. I do miss the scale tools, though. I've been wanting a plain silver PX and was thinking about dropping that hint for Father's day. But now I'm wondering if I should go Farmer X since I've already got these two PX's. Any input?(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230527/708389a817416a9c241b90cbce73f554.jpg)

I’d go for the FX MTSAK, I’m a big fan of both models but the saw doesn’t add much thickness or weight and will give you a different model to enjoy
I get around the missing scale tools by carrying a Rambler or Manager on my keychain

That's what I was thinking. I always carry a Minichamp, Rambler, or Classic as well. I just like the bigger scale tools in a 91mm.
