No, I’m stumped.  ???
Isn’t that just an awl?
Or chisel (on left).

Chisel!

The large screwdriver is also listed as a crate opener.

I doubt it.
Larger pin diameter and way too wide for the 93mm frame.
You'd better ask Robert to craft you a similar tool.

Who is this "Robert" you speak of?  Take me to this Wizard at once!

Also known as Bob Lessard - He is indeed a wizard

Why not try and make one yourself from the screwdriver  :pok:
- All you need is a grinding stone and maybe some files if you want to make the stripper too - The notch is already there to be sharpened

Someone did that here - Where pretty much every tool on the SAK was either a blade or chisel of some sort
You might find it if you search for whittling - As it was in a thread about whittling

I sharpened everything on an 84mm Tourist - no back tools make it very comfortable in the hand for whittling - I think I passed it on to caninesapian a couple of years back. Others have done similar and more thorough mods

hehe thats very cool!

Really hard to get much done lately with the little guy home from school.  Also since I normally use alot of disposable gloves and respirator filters (which are impossible to buy now) I cant do much grinding or polishing work.  Trying to focus on a few new designs in the mean time.

I always misread that as crater opener. You know, the tool aliens use to open up freshly made moon craters :facepalm:

I started a few ideas and never had time to develop.  One was a removable wrench that locks into a scale but doesn't increase its thickness at all.   Then there is also the fold out bit holder screwdriver idea for 1/4 inch hits.

Also, the local food banks where I live are hurting pretty bad so I'm probably going to build something fancy and unique and auction it off on IG and donate the proceeds.

I did start on the design of a removable scale wrench for the front scale of 91s.  I think the retension mechanism I use for the scale drawer will work.  I'll post some pics when I start cutting the prototypes.

Today I started on a Canada theme sak.  I forgot I used to heat the copper with a heat gun before peening and it really does give a crisper edge.

Here is what the wrench looks like so far.  This is for a 91mm front scale.

I just posted the G code for the wrench and for the scale for it to fit.  I'll cut it now then show some pics.
