I'm in. But I'll have to buy another MiniChamp. The one I owned before had multiple issues, and my sharpening skills were in their infancy, so I made a mess out of the tracheotomy (emergency/Wharncliffe) blade.
-
Oh this is a fun one. I'm game.
It's the perfect excuse to get an alox one anyway... :facepalm:

This is so typical.
One has a knife, then comes a challenge to use it, and then all the sudden one needs a new one to actually use because the other one wasn't supposed to be used :D

No, not really. I have a MC I keep on my desk. But I have about a MiniChamp worth of VVV-bonnen. And an Alox MiniChamp is just soooo sweeeet.

I noticed that and I think that is pretty nice to have a model with that time period tools. Having the current model with the new tools makes for some interesting history. Especially if they have different tang stamps. :like: :tu:

I don’t have a Mini Champ, but I’ve always wondered if they really offer enough additional utility to justify the weight penalty over the Classic. If I can’t find a cheap used one, I’ll still be a spectator.
Show me what the Classic’s big brother can do!

This is apealing. I've been curious about the MC. I'll have to see how things go with the Schrade Tough Tool challenge and if the month of February is kind enough for me to find one I at the right price in time. I may just be challenged out for a little while. We will see.

Okay, I picked you 3 as you're all in the US which makes shipping less expensive for me, and here's my offer. Cody gets first pick, then Mizedog, then Douglas gets the last one by default.
I have 3 extra MiniChamps that are used that I have picked up along the way. They're very nice, just not mint, and not in original box. I will offer these to you for free and shipped for free. It is not a pressure to participate either. Just so you can have them and find out what the mighty MiniChamp is all about.
The left one is a Midnite Mini with a dim RED LED light. The middle and last one are standard and pretty much the same..they show some scale wear mostly.
Cody, what's your pick? Once you pick, please PM your shipping address.

Could I start the challenge on the 4th of 5th of march (and then do it until may the 4th or 5th)?
I'm going to Vienna for a long weekend starting the 1st of march and since i'm travelling with only hand luggage I can't take the MiniChamp with me ::)

I don't think that's an excuse. The size of te MiniChamp is ideal to hide in *erm* bodily cavities... :facepalm:
Just don't go through a bodyscan.

Yikes! I'm floored, and humbled! When is my turn, I'm happy to take one with red scales ;) I will follow that up with putting my other SAKS to rest for the entirety of the challenge so I can participate in earnest. This will be a good challenge as I will be traveling a bit during March. Come to think of it, I traveled during the Executive Challenge and survived.
Thank you, you Enabler ;)

Most coloured aloxes have the logo of the selling store on the engraving plate. While this Minichamp was not made on request, since it has "Victorinox" engraved, it was made by Vic for selling through their own stores.
I'll search for an example of a store logo. Give me a sec
-
Most currently available, if not all, red alox Minichamps are made on request by a store.
Like this one from Schweizer messer Essen:
Note the store logo on the engraving panel.
-
Really? I never knew this.
I know SchwezerMesser has the shield on their SAKs, but didn't know that was store specific.
I'm a bit worried to buy a MiniChamp Alox at Bever (Dutch Outdoor store) right now.
I dkn't want a silly Bever logo on my MiniChamp! :ahhh

FB, the Mini is already a favorite but I due to timing I won't be joining this challenge even though I will be carrying it. I instead will be in the Misic Men Mamorial Center Drive Challenge. Music Men touched me deeply in the short time I got to know him before his passing so I feel this is a must for me. Thank you so much for the kind gift and it is already a part of my EDC.

Well, I was planning on buying an alox MiniChamp with vouchers I had laying around.
To bad that won't happen now. I needed a headlamp so I got those instead :facepalm:
MiniChamp with Princeton Tec Sync and Quad Tactical
Got them both at a discount and simply could not pass them up.
The Sync has a very intuitive mode dail and the Quad is waterproof.
So, I'll participate i nthe MMMC (M3C?) with my trusty old Celidor MiniChamp.

I'm dropping out. The forum is not working for me at all, slow loads and freezing all the time. 9 out of 10 times it just won't open. So, honestly, I lost my interest.
Next to that i'm still running in and out of the hospital with my dad, takes up a lot of time.
Have fun with the challenge!

I'm dropping out. The forum is not working for me at all, slow loads and freezing all the time. 9 out of 10 times it just won't open. So, honestly, I lost my interest.
Next to that i'm still running in and out of the hospital with my dad, takes up a lot of time.
Have fun with the challenge!
Hope it works out with your dad!

A beer for the Mrs. and me after a long day of travel. The caplifter needed a second try, although these Asahi bottles are a bit strange, their collar is different - the other day I tried with a LM bottle opener and it was a total failure, the tool didn't even fit the cap, so this is a win for the Minichamp.

Mactire - MCC Day 01
I've had a month to cool down from the Swiss Champ Challenge and the Handyman has found it's way back in my pocket as MC.
For this challenge I will keep carrying the Handyman. I remember from the Executive Challenge that I do miss tools like the pliers and the saw on occasion, not having it with me makes my life a bit miserable. Also, when I don't have the Handyman in my pocket I feel like I have lost it somewhere.
Day one is quite uneventful. Spend the day on OR (operating room) and I can't take a whole lot of stuff with me. For sure I won't take a SAK with me because I wouldn't want to think what bacteria are living between the liners. (Does any of you know of research done about germs in pocket knives? I'm very curious.)
Mactire - MCC Day 02
Visited the Amsterdam Coffee Festival today. Everything coffee and related.
Brought back two coffees to take to work, one comes in a can. I tried to use the Nail Cleaner to open the can, but the required force stopped me from going further.
Apart from taking a quick note with the Pen, that's all the action for the MiniChamp today.
Mactire - MCC Day 03
Lazy sunday, very, lazy, sunday. When I was fed-up with my own lazyness I scribbled down blueprints for a drawer knife holder with the Pen.
I used a new mini circular saw to make it, it had some learning curve to it so I'll be replacing this one with either a store bought one or a prettier one I still have to make.
You might be wondering, why no pictures? Well, I left my phone in my locker friday. :-\
So I won't get it back untill after day 4.

Here’s a late day 4. Built an ikea dresser. Lots of boxes.

Mactire - MCC 04
Again, not much action for the MiniChamp.
I needed to cook, but the MC isn't very suitable for cooking.
So I made something simple, mini pancakes! We call them 'poffertjes' in Holland.
All the MC needed to do was open the package and cut a slice of butter!
The butter and powdered sugar were added afterward.

Haha, I recognised the cardboard fillers! That had to be IKEA!
Build a couple of cabinets myself about a week ago. To store our boardgames under the stairs.
We decided upon a nice dresser, my GF measured it and when we got home the cabinet was 1 cm too tall! :o
So, again back to IKEA. On saturday... The hell of screaming children and catatonic parents.
Luckily they returned our dresser and we got several smaller cabinets instead.

Sorry for entering so late guys, I wanted to start yesterday but our flight was delayed over three hours and by the time we got home I was tired. Got some Chinese takeaway and after that immediately went to bed because this morning I had to get up real early for a 2 hour train drive to get to a 2 hour meeting for work (and after that 2 hours back by train).
Anyway...here's Day 1!
Used the MiniChamp to get my new battery charger out of this disaster they dare to call packaging :facepalm:

After wrapping up the Tough Tool challenge yesterday, this is my day 1. A special thanks goes out to FolderBeholder for sending me a MiniChamp so I could participate (I had one already, but with severe issues).
Tools used today. These are recreations of the original photos. The originals sucked and were blurry.
Wharncliffe (emergency blade): opening medication, breaking up train set box. Cut and Picker (orange peeler): cutting banding straps holding train set parts to packaging), peeling orange. Combo Tool: removing and then replacing screws to access locomotive's battery compartment.
Normally, I don't do toy grade. But I am a butter finger, which has put most of my good locomotives in the shop, and I have an antique Lionel needing a full rebuild and several replacement parts (bought it dirt cheap, knowing the issues, for a project). This Power Trains (Jakks Pacific) set, a bit bigger than N scale, was $10 on sale at Amazon and I couldn't resist. Thinking about adding a couple of the add-on sets they offer. I'll try to get a photo of the layout tomorrow. I have no space, so I had to set it up on the table, and put it back when done.
Borrowed photo:

Found a scale that can measure my corpulent self tonight. Of course it was a fine opportunity for the minichamp to open the box.

Mactire - MCC 05
The MC is accompanied by my Handyman. Both ride in the same pocket. I'm a bit concerned with the scales on the MC as the Handyman is rubbing against it all day.
My idea was to make a shorter keyfob for the Handyman, to have it hanging in my pocket and give the MC some room.
I did not get any further than selecting the hardware; carabiner and shackle. Maybe tomorrow.

I did get to use the scissors to cut a sticker to fit a bottle cap. Smurfing Strong Coffee is a Coffee Roaster based in Amsterdam. I picked up a can of their roast at the Amsterdam Coffee Festival. Contrary of what you might expect this coffee is not heavily roasted and surprisingly offers a lot of flavour. And the name makes a nice statement.

First off, apologies to the mod who has removed the picture from my previous post. I should have been more considerate about the coffee.
The MC saw a whole lot of action today.
In the morning I had to open a box of eyePads. Not to be confused with iPads. We use these to cover patients eyes during examination.
A great pre of the 58mm SAKs is that even the Large Blade does not scare the muggles.
Then I made coffee and the puck got really stuck in the filterholder. I'm under the impression fresh coffee expands more when wet than pre-ground store bought coffee. Used the Ruler to loosen the grounds.
Doggo is sick. He needs medication. But the pills they prescribed are for heavier dogs. So I used the Nailfile to reduce the weight of the pill and meet the apropriate dosage requirement.
When it was time to go to bed I had to turn off the TV. The power button is broken so the Cuticle Pusher did a fine job pressing the switch inside the TV.

This year, I think challenges were pretty well-chosen, given most so far are personal favorites. Today, since I was still moving furniture and such with the painting of my room, I added the Surge (to be used next month in the Surge challenge) for its pliers and bit kit. I used its pliers and the bit driver with the Phillips bit from the bit kit a lot removing assorted stuff from the walls. However, tonight when I changed into my sweatpants, the Surge was still in its sheath on my jeans, and I needed to put in a screw, so I used the MiniChamp and the SD tip of the ruler. Making the somewhat tight screw grip the shadowbox more tightly was no problem. I also used both blades, pen to open the medicine, Wharncliffe to sharpen a pencil.
These camo sheaths are nice for the cheap price LM was clearancing them out for (these were from 2011, and were originally sold with a matching Realtree Surge and hold everything shown, but I doubt they'll last longer than the standard Wave pouch. I'm putting them to the test with the Surge and ST300 challenges, and will be the main sheaths I will use, which will be the true longevity test.

Tools used, scissors to cut out insurance cards (unlike my previous provider, they aren't plastic, just printed on a big heavy card sheet; that's poorly perforated) and ruler to size the opening on the tip of a skeleton key in order to see what size the spare would be; so I can carry the spare, not the "original". We have a few pieces furniture that has the old skeleton keys with locks, but were purchased without the keys. I plan to replace the keys to all of them. I think my old (1830s) drop leaf desk is the only one that has a key, but that's only to the leaf, and there's three large drawers on the outside with Swedish locks that lack keys. The old radio cabinet my collection is in I also plan to retrofit a lock into it. Believe it or not, my folks don't have a whole lot of money invested in these old pieces of furniture. I got the desk for my birthday, and it cost under $200 at a local used furniture place.

There's a hole in my Fuzzbucket, so... Day 10
We've not done much today, it has to be said. We had big plans, but laziness got in the way. Anyway, Minichamp, like myself, likes to show off a bit. Here he is trying to make a big impression on my latest knife... I'm sure you're sick hearing the name...

Wharncliffe opening medicine and that was it. They mostly stayed in my sweatpants. Today's job (breaking up half-rotted planters made from landscaping timbers, removing the screws so that the remnants could be thrown in the brush pile) was fairly heavy duty--it even tested the limits of my three heaviest duty EDC items--4" Knipex Cobras, 8" Lucas Engineer's Pliers, and the Super Tool 300. The screws were all bent or stripped out. Resulted in a groove being worn in the bolt gripper portion of the Lucas pliers, but the Cobras and ST300 were unharmed.

Mactire - MCC 07
Used the MC to open a package. Anoter Swissmemory. I have great plans for this one.
I bought it specifically for a 64MB to 64GB modification. Now I just have to hope everything works out...
Mactire - MCC 08
While cleaning a cabinet I found a tiny friend from the past.
In the spirit of the MiniChamp I figured the GameBoy Micro would pose perfectly alongside
The MC didn't get any use today.
Mactire - MCC 09
I had the marvelous plan to use the MC to mod the Swissmemory to a 64GB drive.
With some poking and prodding I got to remove the sliding part from the USB drive, I cut down the plastic with the large bladen and used the nailfile to smooth it all out. Should work perfectly no? Well, it didn't.
I had to remove all the plastic and had only the metal part of the connector left.
The PCB was easy to remove from the Swissmemory with the blade of the MiniChamp and the Swissmemory combined.
I could insert the SanDisk PCB, but the notches had no where to go.
Time to pause the project. I can do a much better job with the Dremel and would not destroy the scissors of the MC.
Mactire - MCC 10
I used the Dremel to cut out notches out of the USB drive. I did get to use the ruler of the MC to measure out the appropriate positions. Sadly I don't have a picture of that.
Finally, at the end of the day I used the Philips screwdriver to screw a screw in the wall

Used the scissors and nailfile to trim and round off cable ties that keep the excess cord on my wired mouse (with the Mad Catz RAT mice, they burn batteries, and it seems I've had trouble getting my RAT-M to work after updating the laptop to 10) all the while poking me when I use it. But I'll probably end up trying the RAT M yet again. It has more buttons, especially good in games that have weird button choices, like on one where the CAPS key changes vehicles. Not to mention the "slow motion" feature I never used, and kept accidentally activating (it used the tab key) With this computer and mouse, I completely eliminated that problem; by completely removing slow-motion from the key bindings, and swapping the caps key for the illuminated button on this mouse.

Hanyman, CT and MiniChamp
As far as screwdrivers go, the CT seems to be first choice. But I do like the Philips on the MiniChamp.
Mactire - MCC day 13
Did some prodding and poking with the MiniChamp.
Remember the Swissmemory I modded? Well, this happened:
I should have filled the housing with something to prevent the back pushing out.
I did not get the metal part out of the housing with the MC today.
Mactire - MCC day 14
The philips screwdrives has proven it's worth. I love this tool.
Bought a new kichen timer that needed it's batteries installed.
Sadly, the batteries were dead. So I used the coke-spoon to remove the batteries.
And used the Philips screwdrive to reattach the cap
Mactire - MCC day 15
Breakthrough today! I've been pondering how to get the metal part out of the Swissmemory for a few days and decided to give it one more go with the MiniChamp.
The Warncliffe knife was just sleek enough to catch the metal behind the plastic rib (if that makes sense).
With the assist of the Handyman Pliers it came out! Great success!
Now to find some plastic to plug the hole.

A cupboard shelf of mine lost middle plastic support peg. As it broke it reamed the hole. Decided easiest fix would just replace with a wood screw.

Minichamp tried and failed today. :ahhh

Not expecting much more use today.
Wish I purchased some orange translucent knives when they were easy to find. They look cool.
I wish they were available in 91mm too. The orange Spartans are different and 'back painted' like silvertech scales. I like it, but not as nice IMO. More like a creamsickle color.

Made a slight change yesterday, when I found that the only pair of my everyday carry pants I had that wasn't torn or had a watch pocket were a pair of cheap carpenter's jeans that lacked a watch pocketso I took the clip I made from a cheap pocket watch's chain (in most cases, used to keep the big boys, i.e. CT34, Champion, SwissChamp from feeling like a brick) and put it onto the MiniChamp. Improves carry a lot! It was really convenient when using the pen to check off the list at Walmart.
Today I just used the Wharncliffe opening the medicine.

Anyway, look at this. I've just been served a cheese and ham sandwich, and look, there's no butter or marg or anything, just dry bread*... What's the world coming to, I ask you?!

Most of my green SAKs. From left to right, Master Gardener, Super Tinker (scales were on a CT34, and are warped, but you don't see these green scales that often so I swapped them with the Super Tinker's standard red ones, and interestingly enough, the Vic shield on the back is hot-stamped, not inlaid), and Irish Classic SD, which for quite some time was my regular use Classic SD before I discovered the Alox Companion (I should get one of these in green).

I just had a local shop put on a new belt tensioner and serpentine belt and wouldn't you know the belt broke with under 50 miles on it.
It's back to the same shop, hoping they make it right. Awaiting their phone call.
I can't justify buying a new one, they're about $40,000. Mine is a 2004 and I hope to keep it running for a long time. Here she is when not on a car hauler.

Only 50 miles on the belt is terrible never heard of that before

Day #18 - opened a pack of LED lights for the car's headlights.
It was quite an ordeal to get them in place!
The first one was really easy, but the second one... Smurf my life!!
The light fell inside the headlight, and I had a really hard time getting it out again! Had to disassemble a big part of the engine compartment's right side, to be able to reach it. Many tools came to help, unfortunately the MC want one of them. Used the Leatherman Sidekick's bit driver (mod) to loosen some torx screws: a Knipex pliers to loosen some bolts; a screwdriver with extension to move the LED into a better position; a big pair of tweezers to pic it up carefully; and the Rovyvon Aurora flashlight to see what I was doing!
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why we always carry so much stuff in our backpacks!!

Put batteries in an Easter decoration using the combo tool. Also tried to fix the battery compartment with the nailfile (one of the threads had broken off and was floating around inside, but that didn't work. My plans, since the foot of this toy contained the battery compartment, and it was the same shape, flipping it around so that the internal thread for the battery compartment would also hold the cover on, didn't work.

Finally put this old jewelry box (obviously homemade and hand-painted) to use, I found it in a bunch of junk whoever was running the estate sale didn't think would sell. It is missing something at the top, and a drawer pull. Think it cost me $5. I've had it 10 years. The family who originally owned the place immigrated from Germany over 100 years ago, but I don't think it's that old. Very solid construction, and it obviously took whoever made it a long time.
The white desk organizer mostly holds sheaths and my checkbook (as well as charging cables and eyeglasses cleaning supplies), while this jewelery cabinet will hold smaller EDC items, like watches pens, smaller folders, and my cellphone.
Crud. Just realized my camera didn't focus too well on the MiniChamp. Guess I left it on macro.

Removed coupons to local restaurant from back of Food City receipt. I'm actually going to complain to management about it--because most of the ads seem to be work-at home jobs in "cold calling" which is basically telemarketing. Twenty something times a day gets ridiculous when you're putting up with a barrage of this nonsense. On another note, I've noticed a lot of stores these days are selling ad space for the back of their receipts.

Quite a bit of use. Used the "orange peeler" both as intended, and to rip open a new drill bit set. Wharncliffe opened the pizza I cooked for dinner. Tonight, I carried a Secretary as well. I think I've carried it maybe 3 times since a member here gave several of these away. It's a great, slim little penknife. Can't wait to get the watchmaker's version, which I think is on the same frame. I need it to change a few batteries.

Hello all,
I just returned home from vacation to Branson, MO. Because of travel, lack of Internet connection, I was unable to make regular posts happen. But, I can tell you that the Mini Champ was used daily for opening food packages, cutting tags off of suveniers, and daily beard, and nail care. The blades came in handy for opening boxes. In fact, I don't remember needing the Climber I took as a back up. At one time, we thought the Climber would be needed to open canned goods in the condo we rented. But, we found a dedicated can opener, which kept the Climber on stand by.
The Mini remains on my keys for now. I'd I could only get both the toothpick, tweezers in their, and retain the pen...
I saw The Duke at the Hollywood Wax Museum. He approves of the Mini, but wondered where my Bowie was

I know what you mean. You can put the toothpick in a lanyard like I do. and keep the tweezers and pen in the scales.

Day 23, just got back home from a two hour work meeting for which I spent 6.5 hours on the train today. It should have been a productive meeting... if it weren’t for a couple of smurfs that kept steering the conversation back to a couple of completely irrelevant issues. Easy for them to waste their time, they came from The Hague, where we had the meeting. They didn’t spend 3 hours to get there (and another 3 to get back) unlike many of the other attendees :facepalm:
Well at least at home there was something waiting for me in the mail:

I, uh, managed to misplace it somehow this morning. Here's a photo of the backup. Hopefully I can find the one I've been using for the past 20-something days. Logo scales were off a broken Bijou. It's for CAE systems, a company who does training and builds simulators for the aerospace industry. These scales were a replacement for the red ones I broke, and they're damaged as well and aren't snapping onto the scales. Thinking I'll go with Stayglow on this one. What do y'all think?

For keychain duty, Stayglo rocks. For me, it charges on the drive home, then helps me find my keys when I drop them going from the garage through the dark laundry room. The ink has long since been rubbed off.

Found the MiniChamp on the headboard of my bed. Started on some home improvement projects with my folks, and carried these four items. While the Mora got used for most of the cutting, the Benchmade 7 for unpacking the bundles of wood we're putting on the kitchen wall behind the sink, and the SOG for its serrated blade, pliers and bottle opener (pried open both cans of finish with it), the MiniChamp still got its fair share of work. Started opening the shrink-wrapped bundles of lumber with the cut and picker blade, ended up gouging a piece, so I quickly grabbed the Benchmade from the house, got down to the garage, and back to work. Blades did quite a bit of cutting. I also plucked a fly that had gotten stuck to one of the nearly-finished pieces with the tweezers.

Mactire - MCC day I've lost track
I'm sorry to say I have to opt out of this challenge. My intermittent posts are no fun when others are putting in the daily effort.
I do carry the MC every day, but I'm lacking the time to make a decent entry every day.
Some highlights I've been able to capture:
The Swissmemory I modded fell apart and I could not get the metal parts out.
Fortunately I tried again and managed to pry it out with the Wharncliffe. The curved tip could just reach around the corner.
Since I started using a knife for sharpening pencils I stopped carrying a pencil sharpener. I might get some odd looks. But it's far less messy to carry and works just as well.
The small pen is a joy to use. The width of the MC is just right. The thicker Swissmemory is slightly less comfortable to use.
And then, a more ambitious project...
We bought a kitchenpaper holder that needed to be mounted on the inside of a wooden door.
First I removed the sticky tape that was left by the previous owners of the house. I used the large blade to scrape it off.
And we were not going to use tape to hang the holder. Just old fashioned screws. I don't want this thing coming down or rattling when I use the door.
The Philips screwdriver is an absolute joy to use.
That's it for now. Perhaps I'll update again but I don't consider myself part of the challenge any more.

Day #30 - label cutting, package opening and nail trimming. It's how I finish this challenge.
It's been good fun! I was already used to carrying a 58mm with me daily, so having to carry the MC was quite easy. The real challenge was remembering to document the uses and post it everyday!
The MC really is quite capable for it's size, and has way to much tools if you ask me... The Vagabond has all the useful tools in my humble opinion.
Nevertheless, either one is great, and there's not much difference in thickness, and, in this challenge, the MC was always up to the task!
Thank you Obi1shinobee for kicking off the challenge, all participants for the pictures of such great uses, and Speedy, for always cheering us on even though he was not participating!

I need to look at the calendar. I started late, and know I have a few more days left. I think April 5 will be my last day. The Minichamp did what I needed--within reason. In most cases, when working around the farm, I grabbed a larger folder, and a full-size industrial grade multitool or the proper tools. For general stuff around the house, and about the town, it did all of it. The Minichamp is light duty. It will not handle that bent, rusty stripped out mess of a Phillips screw. It isn't going to pry nails. It will do the stuff knives of this size are designed for; for example opening mail, changing batteries in small electronics/toys, pulling staples out of paper, trimming your fingernails, opening store packaging; and the medical-specific stuff some of its tools were originally designed for; emergency surgery, namely tracheotomies (Wharncliffe/emergency blade), cutting the safety band off a pill bottle (cut and picker blade), and counting pills/beads (pharmacist blade/cuticle pusher).
Today, I think I may have lost count what I did with the MiniChamp. I cut fruit with the Wharncliffe blade, cleaned my fingernails, and a few other things.
And soon, I go from carrying a small, light easily carried tool (especially after I put the suspension clip I made from a watch chain for my Champion on it) to a beast weighing a metric ton (well a little less than a pound in sheath, with accessories) for a month. But still, when I'm not working, the Minichamp will be what's in my pocket. Around the house, I see no need in anything more than a small folder in my sweatpants. On another note, I can't believe a month went by this quick. For some reason, my computer has already started a 4/2019 folder with this photo when I uploaded it.

Happy end of Match, everyone. The Mini Champ had been great! It's migrated from my keychain to my dangler, depending on the day, and the need. The only time I felt that it didn't cover the need is when I needed a larger driver, or pry tool. I really appreciate having this little tool.

MiniChamp and a wood scaled, genuine Eddie Bauer SAK.
April Fools! It's your run of the mill Chinese SAK clone. Literally everything on it doesn't work. Given it came from directly from Eddie Bauer, I bet my great-aunt gave something like $20 for it . Eddie Bauer doesn't even sell a knife with their own logo any more for some reason; which is a shame given there were many Victorinox and Wenger models with their logo. I got it for Christmas one year, and ever since it's been in Granddad's old lunchbox he carried in the mines, which typically houses the low end POS knives I don't want to throw away, and can't in good conscience give to someone (and that's not counting a good sized box full of the things in the outbuilding). My rules for giving a knife away is simple; it has to be something I'd carry and use every day without issue.

Rockin' the spare again. Laid the red one down to take my larger knife out, and somehow misplaced it (again).
This was a catalog movie theaters could order promotional stuff for Gone With the Wind (the 1960s remake) from MGM before it was in theaters in 1964. I'm sure they're not that common. My folks don't even know where it came from or how they got it. I took it off the top of the china cabinet (where it was laying under the old heirloom Rodgers cutlery set); as my grandmother was painting, and I was sure paint would get on it.

I cannot remember who was it that, during the challenge, was messing around with a Swiss memory, but that stuck with me and gave me an idea...
I also wanted to get my dual USB+OTG flash drive into a SAK.
I finally got my hands on a 128mb used Swiss memory, and got working on it.
First part is done (first 3 pictures).
Next step will be to take it apart, and combine it with the 64GB Vic slim flash drive, I already had (last picture).
I'll put an update once it's done.

How do you have both the toothpick and tweezers in the SAK in that last picture? :think:

I made the custom CF scales you see in that SAK.
At the moment it's one of a kind, because it was done mostly by hand and a dremel.
