What can I say? Nothing but a million foot tower or awesomeness and gnar...I love this thing, such beauty.

Next on my list is the GAK and the Farmer.

Looks like you're equipped for about anything there Mr T! :multi:
I like how you've got that lanyard on the Soldier. It looks like it might protect the blade from whacking directly into the lanyard loop accidentally. (I've notched mine repeatedly that way and had to re-establish the edge) :(
-
You gotta love Alox SAK's. Looking good. :cheers:
-
Glad you like it mate. :) The SI really is a lovely SAK.
-
Great picture mate, I'm glad you liking the SI :)

Thanks guys! Oh, I forgot...Thanks Feline Vet, help those baby kitties!(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v122/ashgroovy/1161803565975.jpg)

I for one am suprised how much I use my Soldier for each day at work.Even though I carry a Rescue and a Swisstool I reach for my SI the most.I yanked the bail off of mine,it rides a bit nicer in the pocket.

It's weird how much the bail divides people so much :think:, it does seem you either love them or hate them :-\
-
I am not down on the bail at all.For what I envision the uses of the SI the bail is more of a hinderance.I do like the option of bail or no bail.Even though a person has to be a bit careful closing up shop so to speak.

You'd think I would learn, but no. Something about my standard fold-the-knife-against-the-back-of-my-pants routine always seems to leave the bail flipped over in front of the blade as it closes. :(
I wish there was an easy way to limit the travel of the bail so it wouldn't get in the way.
-
I wonder if it could be re-bent to take a bit of the gap out?

Well I dont want to hijack this thread but since you asked ;) That black lump you see is called Butyl , its like black blue tack but worse >:D Its put in a machine and heated to 125c then squirted out at 100 Bar :o It sticks like **** to a blanket and is used as a primary seal in double glazing . I'm using my Wenger SI to remove bits of cardboard that are stuck to the slug before I load it into the machine .
So now you know :D

100bar is very very dangerous :o Last year we got told about superheated steam and how it has been responsible for some nasty injuries, simply cutting through flesh and bone :o not something i'd want to mess with!

I've heard lots of horror stories of early locomotives doing horrible things to the engineer and fireman, when the boiler sprung a leak :(
