I've been a fan of SAKs since the early 80s. Anyone else like them? Here are a couple of my favorites.

Here's the one I bought at the Military Rod & Gun Club in Grafenwoehr Germany in 1983. I carried this the rest of my time in the Army.

This was the heat before Leatherman's came out.

Tom

I carry a SAK climber. I have carried a SAK 99.9% of the time for the past 30+ years. Value for money, they are one of the best.
Sorry I don't have any current pictures.

Tony, no toothpick and tweezers in that Spartan?

Rob, your Fisherman has the classic square Phillips head shaft. Cool!

Rod, my two favorite models are the Camper for outdoors and the Climber for city. Love that scissors!

Needless to say, SAKs make great companions for RMKs.

After 36+ years, it's time to treat yourself to a "full service" SAK. grin
