Awful scissors on a Victorinox product? I would have never guessed that.
The Spirt scissors are your heavy duty cutters. Your SAK scissors are fine detail scissors. The Spirit cap lifter is your pry tool, scraper, larger driver. Your SAK cap lifter is a cap lifter and light duty scraper. Because the Spirit locks it can handle tougher work. I've had my SAK cap lifter fold with moderate pressure. As a cap lifter its great. Great tools.
Again, beautiful reds! Now I have to check out the Skineth. Both my SCs are 1980s so I don't want to mess with the scales.
The MC, Waiter, and Spirit is a great set. Today tried pocketing the Explorer with the butter blade Spirit. I find I use the mag lens and small blade enough to miss it when carrying the waiter. Carried a microstream and rite in the rain pokka pen. I’m not sure what’s better for pocket space, but I did miss several of the MC blades and that damn scoopula is quite useful for a lot of tasks. A bit of overlap in the tools split about half and half with redundant and unique implements. [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ] I’m more likely to pull out the Explorer than Spirit for cap lifter, but prefer the locking screwdriver. The awl is 50/50 and I don’t think I’ve used the eyelet on the Explorer for any sewing related tasks. [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ] How do I choose scissors? The Spirit scissors are just awful, except they cut zip ties and those plastic bindings on packaging wonderfully. The Explorer scissors get more use. Everything else has its dedicated use on the separate tool.
You use the Mag Lens a good bit? My eyesight is bad in one eye and I love my Explorer but don’t use the Mag Lens much. More of a I forget I have it till later kinda thing.
Turns out I don’t have the Cybertool 41 but the smaller version with no saw or file. All these years living a lie.
Spirit butter blade, Explorer, and Midnite Minichamp today. A frequent favorite combo.
