750 posts!  Xmas!  End of Wenger!  Let's put all these together. I am giving away 6+ worn out and broken Wengers away for my 750 post giveaway. If one has some basic nodding skills , one could make 2-3 good servicable Saks. Broken blades, snapped corkscrews, bent openers, cracked scales, non locking locks- this batch has it all.

Thank you, Very kind of you papercut, but as I'm not even close to be able to mod a SAK, so will have pass this one.

But again, thanks!  :tu:

very nice of you,  I am not ready to take that leap yet, so I will sit this one out.  others might be more interested in starting to mod than I am.
If I can help, let me know

That's a good point.  Anyone who is halfway interested in giving modding a bash should be in for this one.

Actually I will enter here and if I win I will assess what is buildable out of the available components and then host a giveaway with the resurrected SAK that results. Probably even put some nice wood scales on it or Canvas Micarta or something.  So, I'm in

A chance to do some knife bashing for free. Given my usual level of skills the junk is likely to become more pieces of junk, but could be fun!  Like taking apart an old alarm clock. :tu:

Good luck everybody and  :salute: papercut (please stay away from my fingers though).

Very nice of you. :hatsoff: Parts are always good and we see far to few Wenger mods around here. I'bve never taken apart anything 85mm with a lock and scissors always come in handy but I've said to myself that I wouldn't enter any more giveaways this year.

Looking forward to seeing what the winner will make of these. :2tu:

Congrats to GigaHZ, that's a nice way to end the year. :cheers:

Looking forward to seeing what you make of it. Maybe you'll start liking Wenger mods more than Vics. :D

I took apart a two Wengers yesterday for a mod only to realize I was out of pin stock for them. :facepalm:

Mods to follow in the first days of 2014.

Cool! What pin stock is used on the Wengers? I have only removed the compass and reused the same pins on a tool chest plus.
