Newest one.

Well thanks to all who helped me decide over in the Swiss Forum I produced this this morning. 



It's a Yeoman.  I did say I wouldn't listen didn't I?  :P ;) I had strongly thought that I would go with a saw rather than the scissors but in the end I just know that I use the scissors more and having the saw in place would just mean I wouldn't end up carrying the thing.  Thanks to all who expressed an opinion.

This differs slightly from an original Yeoman in that the layers are swapped around a bit, I put the Phillips in the middle layer.  This just seems a more logical place to me.  Hope you like it.  :)

Nice one Gareth, looks good in the blue  :tu:

I agree entirely.  The phillips in the middle makes much more sense.

Cheers chaps  :cheers: .

Here is one slightly better shot.  Still getting used to a new camera (that's my story and I'm sticking to it).

It's a really nice colour isn't it?  It doesn't seem to show up the little scratches as badly as the black does.  I just can't bring myself to carry black SAKs as I can't stand to see them marred in any way, they're just to pretty to use.  :cry:

That looks nice Gareth. What did you butcher to get the Mag glass?

I really like that Phillips on a SAK, but the only mag I've got to pair it with is pretty tatty, which is a shame. Hopefully one day I'll acquire a knife with a good mag, but a ruined phillips :)

I used to come here a lot.

The mag and 'driver came from an old, and very knackered, Explorer.  You can just see in the second pic that the Phillips has had some work on it to bring it back to working order as it had been badly rounded.  The mag glass is perfect with no scratches at all, but the plastic surround has a couple of marks on it.
