And that something is a Victorinox XXLT!
(SwissChamp XAVT on left, SwissChamp XXLT on right).
This one even included the carry sheath.
And for the size comparison shot.
(From left to right: SwissChamp XAVT, SwissChamp XXLT, SwissChamp XLT, SwissChamp).
Scratch another off the ol'bucket list.

I know what you are thinking:"I AM INVINCIBLE!!!!!!!!!!"
"Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall;
Some run from breaks of ice, and answer none:
And some condemned for a fault alone." -William Shakespeare, King Lear (1608), Act IV, scene 6, line 169

Nice! I just got my XXLT a short time ago as well.
Crazy stuff I don't think they will be makin' them like that any more.
I think I need Giant, but right now I have more important uses for the giant funds required.

The XXLT, well, there doesn't seem to be whole lot of them out there on the market. So I am stoked to finally get one.

They don't exactly grow on trees
Well done in getting hold of one
I had no idea that they made a pouch to fit that beast. I thought the biggest they made was for the XLT.
I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

Chako does the sheath have a belt loop for belt carry
If it did, it would make a great photo op , picture of XXLT on belt .... 1 second latter pants on floor
Those massive SAK's would be tricky to use wouldn't they
.
You would need a heavy duty engineered shelf for those queens

Yes it has a belt loop, and yes, gravity would rear its ugly cheek.
Actually Neil, I was about to buy yours, when I got embroiled in that credit card mix up. I take it ICanFixThat bought it? Either way, it all worked out in the end.

Hey Chako...could you take a pic of it laying in your hand, so I can get a real grasp(no pun intended) of how big this baby really is? Thanks! She's a beaut!

That is a bit of an odd request. Not sure what that would prove other then I have really big mitts.

I'm guessing these will chock a wheel in a emergency
so it can really do more than the average SAK
