Start a new thread with a photo showing the Swiss Army Knife Toothpick being used in an unusual way.

I just received my "new" PST and have started to clean it down and relubricate it. I used my SAK toothpick to scrape dirt from the nail nicks. Then I dipped the toothpick in oil, using the tip for easy application to contact parts. The back end of the toothpick is also great for opening stuck tools, but it wasn't necessary for this one. :tu:

I've used the toothpick to clean out pivot points before, but I never thought about using one to apply oil as well. Genius!

I use (and wash!) a SAK toothpick almost every day as, well, a toothpick! I don't think anyone wants a picture of that though :D

The product description for some of the watch case openers describes the toothpick as just that, and I have to admit--it's a perfect use for the tool--regardless of what the application is, most oil bottles allow for way too much to get into pivots and other applications.
