Yes, original as far as I remember.  They do take a bit of staining knocking around on my keyring and even after a good rub I'm not certain they're quite as white as they once were.  Not so bad as to say they don't still look good though, even in person.

That’s great to hear! :2tu:

Some plastics take on a definite yellow tone, after a little over a year or so…
So that’s another plus for the Celidor scales. :tu:

Probably best described as "pale cream" rather then "brilliant white" these days.
Be excellent to each other and always know where your towel is.

apart from the length of  the pin, another important factor is the size of the "head" of the pin, most will probably have to be filed down a bit to fit....

I considered other options as well (like molding the pin into the toothpick or cut out a slot into the toothpick) but then I tried this and it worked.

Of course not ideal - if you want to use the tweezers you have to deal  with the loose pin and I am mildly concerned about the possibility of the tweezers coming out accidentaly in my pocket (ouch...) but I use the tweezers very seldom so it does not interfere with my regular use of the knife and I really enjoy the enhanced capability.

Obviously it is not a huge step for the mankind, but even the Rome was not build in a day!

It has the 4 main blades I use most. 
Of all the Pharma Ramblers I've seen so far they have had the same medication listed on the scale.

I've picked up a couple of Ramblers over the last week or so. Trying to decide if it can replace my Mini Champ Plus.

If it doesn't work for you, I'd recommend trying a Vagabond.

Thanks, NutSAK. I was actually leaning more towards a Manager as I like the pen in the Mini Champ.

But then I'd want to add a layered scale so I could have tweezers and toothpick and pin, leaving the modded Manager nearly as thick as the modded Mini Champ.   :(

apart from the length of  the pin, another important factor is the size of the "head" of the pin, most will probably have to be filed down a bit to fit....

The tweezers aren't totally flat. Try inserting the pin inside the tweezers. I think the pin head fits without a problem. It's awlso easier to retrieve the pin.

I carry a Midnite Manager as my EDC for ages now. I regard it as a Rambler Plus.

It actually started as a Rambler, I just swapped the scales.

That's also a nice way to do it! I have thought about doing the same to an alox but haven't taken any apart for some time
