Anyone else carry two SAKs?
on: January 07, 2022, 01:26:25 AM
Anyone else carry two SAKs?  I’ve kicked around belt carrying a Craftsman while pocket carrying my usual Tourist, but the idea of carrying two feels strange.   [ You are not allowed to view this attachment ]

I've been known to carry a Farmer and a Classic. Or a Cadet and an Esquire.   :tu:

Guilty. Sometimes if I'm carrying a 6+ layer SAK, I also carry a 1 or 2 layer (like a Tinker or my new Excelsior) so I don't have to rely on the wide SAK's off-center blades.
Current SAKs: Explorer, SwissChamp, Handyman (modded), Climber, Super Tinker, Tinker, Woodsman (modded), Electrician, Pioneer, SwissTool, Executive, Ambassador, Champion Plus
Current Leatherman tools: PST, Original Wave, Wave, Wave+, Blast, Bond, Curl, Style PS, Micra

I’ve always got a Rambler or Manager on my keychain and then usually carry another SAK or MT

For the SAK anything from a Cadet to a Huntsman or FarmerX, the MT maybe a Rebar, PST or Spirit

As with anything like this, depends where I’m going. If into the city then probably just the Manager, out to the bush then maybe 3, including 111mm

I have many fewer SAKs than the other respondents of this thread. However, unless a challenge that I am participating in disallows it, I typically carry a Super Thinker in my pocket and a Classic SD on my keychain.

Casual carry:
Rambler on keyring + two/three layer cellidor in pocket + Swisschamp in shoulder bag. I can get by just fine with just the Rambler & SC. The other one represents the habit of a lifetime.

Work carry:
Rambler on keyring + alox Soldier in back pocket + Swisschamp in cargo pocket.

Guilty. Sometimes if I'm carrying a 6+ layer SAK, I also carry a 1 or 2 layer (like a Tinker or my new Excelsior) so I don't have to rely on the wide SAK's off-center blades.

This 👍

You lucky sod. Do you know how rare that model is? The ultimate multitool that can mean you never have to work again.  :D

How about 3?

I usually carry a small pouch that has a Cadet and a MiniChamp, all the time.
My phone case also has a Cadet that stays there.

Lately, I’m always carrying a Alox Classic on my keys and a Alox Bantam in my wallet.

I generally carry 1-2 other larger knives, which may or may not be SAKs.

Yes, at least two.

58mm on the keychain - Signature Lite or MMC.

…and whatever else. Nice thing is the 58mm backup gives freedom from the old tendency to grab something with plus scales.

I've built a wallet carrier that includes a slot for my MiniChamp.
I usually have something between a SwissChamp and a Ranger as my main, but if I'm carrying the Cybertool Lite, I'll carry something else that has all the tools that the CT omits.

MidnightManager on wallet chain always.  Cadet 2, Explorer, Champion, or whatever else I feel when heading out the door.  I can't say if I ever carried 2 larger SAKs tho around town  :think:

Like a lot of people here, I usually carry a 58 on my keychain (most commonly a Rambler) and an 84 or 91 in my pocket (rotates a fair bit, most commonly a Cadet right now.)

When I have to go with only one knife, I usually take the Executive, since it's the only one with a proper (crosscut) file and scissors.

I’m usually carrying three at all times  :ahhh
58mm on the keychain - usually a pharmacist
91mm in the right pocket - these days it’s a CT34
86mm or 91mm in the left pocket - either my trusty Explorer, walker, cadet or scientist

Although my recent acquisition of the Executive model may be a catalyst for a change.  :dunno:
