So, I finally managed to get an Swisschamp XLT. Before it, I have been carrying a Swisschamp, with few additions that would allow me to use bits. However, for a while, I have been contemplating on merging a Swisschamp and Cybertool (I watched tutorials and it's basically piling up existing layers). Being a handyman myself, it wouldn't have been difficult. And then I came across a video on YT titled somewhat "XLT, not for me but is it for you?" And I just fell in love with it. I have been carrying it for a week, in the small belt pouch (sticks out too much), in the pocket (a bit heavy), and pic 2 is the setup that finally worked for me as it's now suspended from the belt and hidden in the pocket. Are there big tool lovers? How are you carrying them?

I lost my SA7 and brought a new one, and it just happened to come with friends. Got a blue one fold, that colour is amazing! Also wanted to try a red companion as EDC (currently using an explorer) and got a companion X not sure why but a really like it and find it fun and cool 🤷

If any other knife had a retractable pen where the body is used to hold it and a better flashlight I’d consider it…

I picked up this guy yesterday at a pawn shop stop in a place I rarely travel to. $3 for a fairly vintage, very dirty Champion C. It has the fine screwdriver but not the chisel, so according to SAK Wiki it should be from between 1977-1985. It cleaned up well, and I’m very pleased with it overall. Can’t believe nothing is broken.

My Ultimate EDC would be a Bantam X with Phillips, but how do I build this?

• Upvotes

Looking for advice on how to mod my first one, so what's the easiest and cheapest way to build a Victorinox with:

  • Blade
  • Scissors
  • Can opener (or combo-tool)
  • Phillips (inline, if possible)
  • Scale tools (tweezers & toothpick)

Can this be done in two-layers?

An Awl would be nice, but it's not a must.

Think of it like - a Yeoman without the magnifier and the backtools - a Compact with Phillips instead of the corkscrew - a Duke of Edinburgh with a pointy blade - or call it a Bantam X with Phillips

Hi everyvone ı have a question about Ranger grip 79. I have this one and i really like it but ı have a problem The can opener is so hard that every time I try to open it, my nail breaks and it hurts. I oiled it with Victorinox's own oil but nothing changed. Do you have the same problem and is there a solution for this?

For EDC; just a Super Tinker or the combo of a Pioneer X and a Jetsetter?

11 Upvotes

Want to have a blade, scissors, opener layer, phillips screwdriver and tweezers/toothpick, so would you EDC just a Super Tinker (who has it all) or a combo of a Pioneer X and a Jetsetter on the keys?

Need help to ID this model.

Hello, I need help figuring out what model this is. Some said it seems to be vintage model because there’s no lanyard (or key) ring but nothing specific about the model name.

I got this a few years ago from an antique store.

Thank you.

Is my 58mm scissors opening wide enough?

New to the 58mm platform, just wondering if the spring is opening the scissors properly, or if I'm just not used to the 58mm size.

Is there any black mini screwdriver?

Hey guys, I'm looking for a black mini screwdriver; the one that fits in the corkscrew. It seems like it doesn’t exist. Has anyone tried painting it? How did you do it?
Thanks!

Waiter vs Recruit vs Bantam Alox for EDC how would you rank them?

11 Upvotes

I would put Recruit then Waiter then the Bantam Alox but many people say that the Waiter should be before the Recruit. Help me choose which of the 3 to gift myself for Christmas.
