Good morning, Tony.  I carried a Spartan out on an early morning shopping for ice cream trip.  Might as well take a photo.  The ancient Boker wanted to be in the photo too, so I said..... well, okay, but only just this one time.  Best wishes and happy Spartan Saturday. Gary

Thanks to our new Canadian member for kicking off Spartan Saturday.  We are a pretty easy going bunch here.  We like photos too.  I will send a dusty photo of Plain Red Spartan looking over some wood which just might become some new scales?  Best wishes to awl.  Gary

    Just a practice match.  They need to keep their skills sharp.  Everybody knows who the SAK Champion is already.  Best wishes.  Gary

   It is actually a Friday evening Spartan post.  Spartan Saturday sounds better.  Early or not, might as well kick it off.  Best wishes.  Gary

Hi Barry,
       No Spartan today?  I had another Archie with the Three Layer Thursday festivities.  It does serve for a one panel cartoon funny and adds a little color.  Plain red Spartans might need a little background. 
       I bought my first Spartan around 1980.  A town over the mountains about 60 miles away had a Walmart and all the people from miles around went to see the new thing.  Now they are in every town and one is within a mile of my house.  Anyway, I took Dad and off we went on our little shopping adventure.  Walmart.  Got to be great.
       Naturally I went back to the little sporting/outdoors section of the store.  They had it all.  Including a sale on Victorinox.  Now I was carrying a regular sort of knife I suppose and Dad usually had a Case stockman.  The Spartans were $8 and some change.  I nabbed one.
       Dad looked at me and asked, "You're not going to buy me one, too?"  That wouldn't do.  They had what I remember as a Huntsman for $12.  I remember it had lots of doo-dads and I recall the name.  Red naturally. 
       To make an eternally long story short, neither of us ever carried the knives.  Dad probably swapped them both off for something.  Maybe I did.  It takes a while to get used to different carries.  Best wishes.  Gary

I really enjoy stories like that Gary.  My Dad got my first SAK for me in Wichita on a trip back in October 1983.  I carried it exclusively until 2015.  I found an old PST and was interested in the history of it.  I found Multitool.org and the rest history!  I've had a few Spartans, but this is the only one I currently have.

       Liking that blue a lot.  And the memory.  I have been thinking about that Huntsman I said I bought.  I might have said the wrong thing.  I thought about it before I joined this site and got infected with chronic SAK induced insanity that it must have been a Hunter.  No such critter.  Then I thought, maybe it was a Huntsman.  I am about to come to the conclusion that it was a Hiker.  I wish I had the thing in a drawer right now.  What a bargain.  Best wishes.  Gary
