The Ranger is an example of a SAK with a great assortment of tools that I really like and admire but don't use.  Why not?

I think some of the lyrics of an old Elvis Presley song explains my feelings:  "Her hair is soft and her eyes are Oh so blue / she's all the things a girl should be but she's not you"

I have become so attached to the Explorer and its set of tools that it has become my go-to for EDC.  I frequently carry a secondary SAK such as the CT-29 but the Explorer is the SAK that I use most often.  As much as I like the Ranger, I don't want to give up the inline Philips and magnifier.

This hasn't stopped me from enjoying my ownership of the Ranger.  In fact, it would have been a perfect companion for my many motorcycle camping trips (rode for 35 plus years).  These days, it has an honored place among my other SAKs.

The Ranger is an example of a SAK with a great assortment of tools that I really like and admire but don't use.  Why not?

I think some of the lyrics of an old Elvis Presley song explains my feelings:  "Her hair is soft and her eyes are Oh so blue / she's all the things a girl should be but she's not you"

I have become so attached to the Explorer and its set of tools that it has become my go-to for EDC.  I frequently carry a secondary SAK such as the CT-29 but the Explorer is the SAK that I use most often.  As much as I like the Ranger, I don't want to give up the inline Philips and magnifier.

This hasn't stopped me from enjoying my ownership of the Ranger.  In fact, it would have been a perfect companion for my many motorcycle camping trips (rode for 35 plus years).  These days, it has an honored place among my other SAKs.

I love the Explorer too, but I think if I had discovered the Ranger first, it might have been the only SAK I might have owned.  My son has one and it's darned near perfect for what I need.

Expedition?  I hadn't heard of it but checked on SAKWiki and another site and found Expedition Lite.  It had an LED light instead of a magnifier.  I would definitely get an Expedition if it had the magnifier.  Swapping the small blade for an awl would be wonderful!

Even though we all have our favorite SAKs, it is amazing how many SAKs we have in common.  For example, I look at the Swiss Champ Sunday thread and there are the usual suspects (including me).

Thanks guys for sharing!

So is the Expedition a mod?  SAKWiki doesn't list it and neither does the Smartknives site.

The Ranger is an example of a SAK with a great assortment of tools that I really like and admire but don't use.  Why not?

I think some of the lyrics of an old Elvis Presley song explains my feelings:  "Her hair is soft and her eyes are Oh so blue / she's all the things a girl should be but she's not you"

I have become so attached to the Explorer and its set of tools that it has become my go-to for EDC.  I frequently carry a secondary SAK such as the CT-29 but the Explorer is the SAK that I use most often.  As much as I like the Ranger, I don't want to give up the inline Philips and magnifier.

This hasn't stopped me from enjoying my ownership of the Ranger.  In fact, it would have been a perfect companion for my many motorcycle camping trips (rode for 35 plus years).  These days, it has an honored place among my other SAKs.

Nice one NCJ 8) :like: :like:
Add the inline phillips and magnifyerto the Ranger, and you have an Expedition... Replace the small blade with a 93mm inline awl, then you have Poncho's ideal knife... :cheers:

Expedition?  I hadn't heard of it but checked on SAKWiki and another site and found Expedition Lite.  It had an LED light instead of a magnifier.  I would definitely get an Expedition if it had the magnifier.  Swapping the small blade for an awl would be wonderful!

Even though we all have our favorite SAKs, it is amazing how many SAKs we have in common.  For example, I look at the Swiss Champ Sunday thread and there are the usual suspects (including me).

Thanks guys for sharing!

 :cheers:
That's why I called it the Expedition... same tool config except for the lite and electronic scales... In reality, expedition does not exist :cheers:

So is the Expedition a mod?  SAKWiki doesn't list it and neither does the Smartknives site.
Yes it is... I think Poncho has made one already minus the inline awl

It is still apart awaiting an in-line awl :facepalm: :D When I get that piece eventually it will be the SAK to rule them all :dd: :D
