I've owned very few Wengers and have voiced my dislike for the tools in the 85mm knives for years.  However, I recently came to the realization that the Vic Delemonts actually have fixed some of the gripes I've had with them--namely the reamer/punch, can opener w/small screwdriver and sharper saw.  I suppose SAK guys should no longer be pining for the days of the 84mm w/scissors or saw now that we have the Delemonts.  Maybe I can't really complain about them anymore.

A challenge it will be for me, but I think I'll pull it off with a Soldat or a shiny, new S17 so challenge accepted.

Great to have you join the challenge NutSAK :tu:

Agree re the 85mm with scissors being essentially what many are looking for in an 84mm X, was saying just that to Huntsman when we met for a beer a few weeks ago.  I know many people prefer Vic scissors to the serrated Wenger, me too, but it’s a close run thing, they’re still very good. The Evo14 is a particularly well rounded model for edc IMO

:cheers:

You'll have a month off in between.  You quit dating a girl, a few weeks go by and you think, hey, she wasn't that bad... ;)

True.
