93mm Solo.  I like this knife.  Like all saks without back tools it has very clean lines and looks good.  Has no key ring, which is also clean looking and comfortable.  Unfortunately that means I will probably lose it if I try to carry it in the baggy sweats I habitually wear. 

It actually might make more sense as a tool if this thing had a locking blade.

I’m not sure why I’m slightly obsessed with single-bladed Alox SAKs…and yet I am.

 :iagree: The lock blade would be great on the Alox Solo or the 108mm older Solo (which I don’t have, but would love to find one).

It falls out of my pocket sometimes but the single layer Alox without keyring is easily one of the most comfortable pocket knives I’ve used.

Wonderful collection  :like:  those single layer electrician and pruners are neat… I’m assuming they are the single blade and not combined with the plain edge?

They are indeed the single-bladed versions.

The Alox Solo is a great knife and so is the Alox MC.  What better way to spend Monday Oneday and Minichamp Monday than with this pair.

The Alox Solo is my food safe knife.  I’ve used the Pioneer and Pioneer X a few times prepping some food, but it does get non food use so sanitizing can be a bit of a job.  The Solo only touches food.  The MC does get varied use, but it’s pretty easy to clean with such little surface. The wharncliffe blade is my favorite for small fruits.

Today I cut up a few bananas and celery for the kiddo.

Being Monday OneDay I grabbed my favorite waiter. I sure like the one layer options until I need some scissors.

I was looking for which knife is focused on each day of the week.  Found this old thread dealing with Monday.  Got the warning about being an old thread and consider starting a new thread.  So I thought, let’s just go for it.  Here is my Monday Oneday.
Did I miss a different Monday focus?   What about Wednesday?

Lots of larger SAK's, how about some smaller single layer 58mm mods.

Wenger Wednesday.  I have a one layer somewhere.  Oh yeah.  There it is.  A friend from the site sent it to me for Christmas.  I like it a lot.  Best wishes.  G  :D

Lazar and IMR, I like both of the above.  I would have used a single layer smaller size, but, I don’t own one.  This may push me into another acquisition.

Y'all made me pull these out of mothballs as I never carry them so I forget that I have them.  It's good for them to see the light every now and then.

I didn't know about this thread. I don't have a Handyman for the Handyman Mondays but I do have a few monolayers. Here's one of my favourites.

Here's an Alox Bantam (which shouldn't come as a surprise). Given my close proximity to Canada, it stands to reason I'd find Canadian coins from time to time.

Plastic cutlery just doesn’t work for steak.  It’s a little short for a steak knife, but…Alox Bantam to the rescue!

Looks like it to me.  :tu:



It's a shame my Ambassador's scales are a little ragged.  Previous owner did a number on them with pliers looks like.  I had to soak the Vic in some hot water to get the grime off and to loosen the scales because one of them was bowed out.  It looked like it had something wedged between the scale and the liner for quiet some time.  Nothing a little head and a lot of heavy books couldn't fix.  Too bad these types of replacement scales aren't easy to come by as it's from the Victorinox Collection Series No. 2.


May the best of your past, be the worst of your future.

DAY 26  Monday Oneday

My first Vic was a Climber, which will be featured this week.  The second was this Bantam, which was easier to pocket carry in uniform pants.  It also had the two tools I needed more in those days: blade and bottle opener.  :cheers:

Greetings G-D  :salute:

The 007 stuff is very much just sitting about and waiting (followed by a bit of hasty activity) and then S.F.A again  ::)

I'm back out there in the next few days which is just as well as I was doing nothing but hadn't finished  :whistle:

Stay safe out there  :cheers:
