So i'm thinking I am going to replace my Leatherman Style for a SAK that will live on my keychain. My question is what is a good keychain SAK. I'm thinking I want something more capable than a classic but do not want anything very big. Well fellas what do you have for me to look into? Thank you in advance.

Vic Rally
Vic Rambler
Wenger Pocket Tech
I personally carry the Rally, but own the other two.

Perhaps the Vic Mini Champ as well, but that might be too big for your preferences.

I should add some guidelines. It must have Scissors, Blade, File/Flathead, and Tweezers. Maybe I should just go with a Classic. :D
-
Rambler or Manager IMO.

Manager, Midnite Manager!

Im a fan of the classic and have a rambler , i like to have scissors toothpick and tweezers so the classic is perfect, sadly though as i tend to drop my keys now and then ive broken lots of scales so a alox is better but no toothpick or tweezers :-\ ive got a CAK that is solid got alox scales and still has toothpick and tweezers, i need a modded vic alox classic i think ;)

Like he said!
I carry a Midnight Manager as part of my work edc.The combo tool gets to screws no other MT can reach,and its bearly bigger than a Classic
-
Another vote for the Manager, or if want to spend a bit more midnight manager
Do really like the pen in the manager - has been used quite a bit

Wenger Pocket Tool Chest or Vic Rambler/Manager

With a classic you miss out on a caplifter/phillips. I have a manager, its good like the others say, you have the option of either tweezers or toothpick, the other scale is taken up with a pen. I like it because it has sciessors and a caplifter, pretty fundamental tools, which frees me to carry any other knife I like in my pocket, e.g. small folder. Midnite manager won't give you either of the tweezers or toothpick, because of the LED light and pen in the scales. Most people here agree that the LED in a SAK is not that strong, and that it is better to carry a dedicated torch.
-
I was really "meh" about the classic, but then I decided to give one a try because it was only $8. I can say that the classic is working out very well.
-
I think that you should just keep the LM syle :) … it really look cool and useful 8)
-
Rambler or MiniChamp . Classics are nice , especially Alox . ( you can carry the toothpick and tweezers in you wallet )

That sucks. At least it gives you an excuse to buy a new one.

:D although the sad thing was i was given it as a gift and although a CAK it was solid and alox and just like a classic but with the extras of the toothpick and tweezers that you dont get on a alox vic classic :-\ i might go back to a LM micra ::) :D and keep the tweezers and toothpick in my capsule ;)

Whilst the mini champ is excellent for the keychain, I personally stick with the LM Micra, takes a lot of beating, especially as the cellidor handles take a beating from key's, etc.

The Rambler features more goodies than the Classic and is not much thicker :tu:

I have an Executive on my keys.
Great little knife, 74mm but thin for what it has. ;)
