This is nothing to show-off, I rate it as a fail.

Was going to be ComboTool/Blade, Scissors, Saw, Magnifying Glass. Put in the File at the last moment.

I think five layers too much on a smallish frame and the spring on the ComboTool and Main Blade is weak. Not sure why as the snap is okay on the other tools.

Could be taking it apart again.

Just finished a similar Vic version of that one. Got the yellow scales for Christmas which I really like. I always felt and actual Explorer would need a saw and I like the two saws together so that’s how this came about. Chunky but I like it.

Ok I decided to do this one with bone dried for years in my garden.
This bone is cow bone from my butcher .
I acid wash the metals to give vintage looks.
Sorry no process pics but the most difficult part was to carve the holes for pins giving enough deepnes but not breaking the bone.
Quite happy with final result.

Configuration: Ranger with an older, thicker main blade and its spring (stamped Officier Suisse with crosbow). Nickel silver bolsters, red plastic in from an older Vic knife, so it's solid, not hollow. Scales epoxi glued and peened. Bail stainless, rivets brass, brass bushings. Noticable havier and wider than regular Ranger  :)

Agree, that has a lot of retro appeal. That is a fantastic looking knife.

I agree. I have a Woodsman that's an Explorer with a wood saw added (or Huntsman with inline Phillips + mag glass) and it's easily one of my favorite toolsets -- works well exploring the outdoors or in town, as well as a practical EDC.  :like:

Very nice build. Something about those older plastic scales always look more solid and appealing.  :drool:

You guys will probably think I’m nuts, but i was off work today and had the modding bug so I broke down a SwissChamp, Cybertool 41, Traveller Lite and turned them into a “CyberChamp Lite AVT” and Craftsman. Sounds like a bad trade off, but I have always wanted my own version of the ultimate champ. Size wise the modded champ is exactly the same size as a SwissChamp XLT. Curious what you guys think, see images below.

A pair of Alox Ramblers here too, the red one is bladeless and uses smooth scales from a Companion.

Still have not been able to find a Wenger Double Blade, so I modded another one. Turned out ok, six layer, but still pocketable with locking straight blade paired with 2D in line Phillips and full serrated blade paired with Wenger combo tool.

Scientist

Made this one about a year ago, and I’m a little disappointed with it. There’s interference between the blade and Phillips driver that makes closing the blade a little sluggish, and has even scratched the side of the blade.
Think I’ll turn it into a Yeoman.

The CyberSolo, essentially a pocket bit driver. Never used it much so it's going to be absorbed by another SAK soon. The back scale is a front economy scale with the shield removed by acetone and new attachment holes.

I love it. Good job on that back scale. That option has been discussed here but not sure if that was with you. Not that it matters :D

Since I am limited to a SAK and a fixed blade for the next week at minimum,  I decided to carry this mod I did a fee years ago :cheers:

The Master Ranger  :tu:



It is a Champion without scaler and small.bkade removed but an inline awl added in :cheers: Then I put those translucent blue, plus scales on it :dd:
