One of their best models! Another fantastic video buddy!

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey Randy 💪 The Tinker & Tinker SM are such good - 2 layer models 👌 Thanks for the great feedback, much appreciated, my friend 🙏 Atb Gus 👍

@SpecialEd_59 Год назад

Classic, I like the Tinker Small too. (Who am I kidding, I love most of the SAKs). Thanks Gus!

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey buddy 👊 Agreed... 😁 No problem at all, my friend - glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching, Atb Gus 👍

@manwiththeredface7821 Год назад

This and the Spartan are great introductory knives for someone who's not familiar with the world of SAKs.

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey buddy 👊 Absolutely agree with that, as they are simple & effective EDC's. They are also very similar to the original 'Officers Knife' 👌 Appreciate the feedback, my friend, Atb Gus 👍

@mikecurtis2585 Год назад

Hey Mike 👊 💯% buddy 💪 Appreciate you stopping by to add your take on it, my friend 🙏 Atb Gus 👍

@davidguilbert7666 Год назад

Great video, I collect all the ones you mentioned….so far I have about 45

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey David 👊 Thanks buddy, much appreciated 💪 45 - that's more than me! 😁 All good, perhaps you may show them, at some point... You have enough to start a channel, even if you uploaded, once a month. That would be cool 😎 Thanks for watching, Atb Gus 👍

After a series of traditional folders, I started carrying a Tinker exclusively about 40 years ago.. I never considered another knife because the Tinker did everything I expected it to do and a few that I didn't. It''s simply a great tool, not only for beginners but also for people who've carried knives most of their lives. If I hadn't discovered the Super Tinker several years ago, I'd still be carrying the original every day..

@gadgetgus 11 месяцев назад

Hey Michael 👊 Great feedback, buddy 💪 I also love the Tinker, one of my fav double layers, for sure. The Super Tinker, I still need to review, as I also use it in my weekly rotation 😉 Thanks for stopping by, Atb Gus 👍

@LastChanceKnives Год назад

Nice review! The Tinker is my favorite Victorinox for EDC and the Feildmaster for outdoor use.

@gadgetgus Год назад

Cheers buddy 🍻 I appreciate the positive feedback, my friend 💪 I also enjoy the Fieldmaster, which is coming up for review next week or so - stay tuned 😉 Glad you stopped by, Atb Gus

@Practical_EDC Год назад

Wonderful video review as always, Gus 🌷 Just got the Tinker Small myself a few days ago, there really is something special about these Tinkers.

@gadgetgus Год назад

Thanks buddy 💪 I really appreciate you saying so, my friend 🙏 ❤️ 🫂 The TS is a great compact EDC - underestimated by some... Glad you stopped by, Atb Gus 👍

@j1166240 Год назад

The Tinker small has been my EDC for the last 6 months and haven't looked back. Great video and review Gus! Jeff

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey Jeff 💪 I absolutely get that, I still enjoy my Tinker SM, but since they don't make them anymore, I now use it occasionally and use the 91mm, often. Thanks for the positive feedback & for stopping by buddy, Atb Gus 👍

Can never go wrong with them silver boxes eh Mr.Gus?! Never get tired watching SAK videos! Have a blessed week my friend! Cheers, Kimmers and Jerbs 👍🏻🇬🇧🔥🔪🔥🇨🇦👍🏻

Honestly, you just can’t beat them , even the blade steel is fantastic, I don’t know why people talk it down. Great video mate. God bless 👍🏻😊

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey Marc 👊 Cheers buddy 🍻 Appreciate your valid feedback, my friend 💪 Long time, no hear... hope you & your family are all good 🫂 Atb Gus 👍

@rabadabadoo491 Год назад

I'm feeling it, the Spartan would be my 2 layer pick, and bump up to the super tinker for some 3 layer goodness 🍻

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey buddy 👊 I hear that 😁 The Spartan, which I reviewed some months ago - is such a classic! I also enjoy the Super Tinker, in my rotation, especially when I know I'm gonna be needing scissors ✂️ 😉 Thanks for taking the time to comment, Rab 💪 Atb Gus 👍

@Kekaula100 Год назад

Another excellent video as always showcasing the Tinker! I do not have this, but I do have the Super Tinker in yellow Plus scales. This is surely worth considering and adding white Plus scales. Thanks.

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey buddy 👊 Thanks, much appreciated 💪 I also enjoy the Super Tinker, especially when I know I'm gonna be needing scissors ✂️ 😁 I'm reviewing the S.Tinker very soon... 😉 Thanks for watching, Atb Gus 👍

@Kekaula100 Год назад

@@gadgetgus Fantastic. 💯 will anxiously await for your upcoming review on the Super Tinker.

@michaelcolloton6971 6 месяцев назад

Since my last comment, I've added a Pioneer X and an Explorer to my EDC rotation. My Tinker still finds its way into my pocket a couple days a week. I can't imagine life without a Tinker ready at hand when I get dressed in the morning..

@gadgetgus 6 месяцев назад

Hey Michael 👊🏼 All great carries, which I rotate myself. The Explorer I'm reviewing soon, too 😉 The Tinker has an extra special place, as it's the original MacGyver model in the 1980's series... Thanks for stopping by, buddy, ATB Gus 👍🏼

@retrostu1 Год назад

The Tinker is a great option for an EDC. I didn’t know there was a Tinker small (or used to be). Makes me want to collect the full Tinker Line-up! 😂 Great video Gus, thanks for sharing 😁

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey Stu 👊 Thanks buddy, much appreciated, my friend 💪 A 'Tinker Collection' - love that! 😁 Glad you stopped by, to enjoy it, Atb Gus 👍

@SpacecityEDC Год назад

Great video Gus. Always loved the Tinker series by Victorinox, carried them for years and years, such handy pocket knives. SAKs are such a great value even now with prices jumping on so many other brands Victorinox still maintains great prices. I'm a SAK junkie though 😂 Thanks for posting your videos are always so well done 👍

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey buddy 👊 Thanks for the positive feedback - much appreciated! 💪 I'm reviewing the Super Tinker soon... 😉 Glad you enjoyed it, All the best, Gus 👍

@jasonroper7154 10 месяцев назад

I absolutely love it, have a few, even a custom titanium scale model

@gadgetgus 10 месяцев назад

Hey Jason 👊 It's such a classic MacGyver model, and a lot of the time, all you really need 😉 Your collection sounds awesome, buddy 👌 Thanks for stopping by, Atb Gus 👍

@SussexEDC Год назад

Completely agree about two layer SAK's. They marry form and function perfectly. Slotted screwdriver, phillips screwdriver and a second blade. What's not to like? You know i'm a huge fan of the Super Tinker, but this is another good option.

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey Ant 👊 Perhaps a hybrid version, between the two... A 'Compact-Tinker' - that has the Phillips tool & the Awl/Reamer & Punch on the back layer! 😉 Thanks for watching, Atb Gus 👍

@Mike-kc8rl Месяц назад

Macgyver loved this one too! Although I think his was the small version at 84mm?

@gadgetgus Месяц назад

It was Mike 👍🏻

@MB_EDC Год назад

Great review. The two layer SAKs are cool. I managed to get a Walker before they disappeared. For me I prefer a knife with scissors so I would upgrade to the super tinker. In fact I bought one for my wife….

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey Mark 👊 Thanks, buddy - much appreciated, my friend 💪 I also enjoy the Super Tinker, Climber, or Compact, which I rotate when I expect to use scissors ✂️ the next day, which to be fair is often 😁 especially, when I'm in an urban environment. Otherwise, less is more... Thanks for stopping by, Atb Gus 👍

@jeremyspaulding7735 Год назад

An awesome model. I have 3 of them myself. Plus a super and deluxe as well. Great video 👍

Hey Jeremy 👊 Thanks, buddy 🍻 I also have a lotta of love for the Tinker series and shall be reviewing the Super T very soon 😉 Appreciate you stopping by and commenting, my friend 💪 Atb Gus 👍

@Robert_Thomas832 Год назад

Nice review Gus. Really tempted as my camper and huntsman have corkscrew but the Phillips seems to fit the bill on tinker.

@gadgetgus Год назад

Thanks, buddy 👊 much appreciate you saying so 💪 I completely get that 😁 You can never have just one SAK... 😂🤣 Did you see my SAK Short on the Tortoise exclusive, Camper? I think you'll like it 😉 Thanks for watching, Atb Gus 👍

@Robert_Thomas832 Год назад

@@gadgetgus Tortoise whittler? V nice. I'm an Opinel and Svord Peasant user in addition to SAK. Tinker on the way from Swiss tools. Keep up the good work.

@gadgetgus Год назад

@user-zp1uy5jv2b It's a nice Whittler, for sure 👌 I also enjoy Opinel's. I have some more to review soon, if you're interested, I reviewed the Walnut No.8: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-27TLxnP-oKA.html I still need to get a Svord, but I will... Atb Gus 👍

@MilledSteel 11 месяцев назад

Great knife. I wish they added a year code on the blade like Buck or Case though

@gadgetgus 11 месяцев назад

Hey buddy 👊 That's a great idea, it would be nice, for sure 👌 I'm reviewing the Super Tinker soon, which is also pretty damn awesome 💪 Thanks for stopping by, Atb Gus 👍

@rafaor2920 7 месяцев назад

Great edc, for me better than with scissors.

@gadgetgus 7 месяцев назад

Hey buddy 👊 I hear that, it's a great option, for sure 👌 I quite often rotate the Tinker in my weekly EDC. I'm glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for watching, ATB Gus 👍

@John-wo5bp Год назад

Gus for a ultimate carving tool a sak for me needs 2 blades one large and 1 small I use small blade alot myself and knife must have a exellent saw the sak has on mine to collect my branches for carving I modified the large flat screwdriver to a gouge works great to carve eyes if im carving wood spirits and 👍🐾🦊🇮🇹

@gadgetgus Год назад

Hey John 👊 I've always enjoyed 2-layer SAK's the most, for EDC, which I switch up, for other regular models in my weekly rotation. As a carpenter, most of my life, I have a multitude of saws & tools. The SAK saw is a great little saw that's very capable, and I use quite often 🏕 🪵🔥🌳 Good to hear what you've done with the slotted screwdriver. Perhaps you could do a video on it, I'd be interested in seeing 👀 that... 😉 Thanks for watching, Atb Gus 👍

@John-wo5bp Год назад

@@gadgetgus I only got a mobile phone but yeah any bigger than 2 layers sak you get heavy and has tools im not going to use only buy a sak with tools your going to use I use bench grinder to turn flat head driver into a small gouge not forgetting to quench tool or you soften steel burn temper out then it won't hold a decent edge anymore 👍🐾🦊🇮🇹

@gadgetgus Год назад

@John-wo5bp ...I only have a mobile, too, like most of us, but that's all you need to get started, then get a mobile 'overhead' holder or simular, which makes life a bit easier 😉 We could do with a few more active roles in the community. Come on, have a go... Atb Gus 👍

@John-wo5bp Год назад

@@gadgetgus I'm no good with technology I did carve a phone holder from scraps of wood but yes I concur im pretty resourceful fox make use most things made flint arrow heads and blacksmith a few medieval arrow heads just for a project 👍🐾🦊🇮🇹

@gadgetgus Год назад

@@John-wo5bp Fair enough... Atb Gus 👍

@jamesbranham2217 3 месяца назад

It would be even better if they could figure out how to switch the Phillips around so it's more like a screwdriver

@gadgetgus 3 месяца назад

Hey James 👊🏼 They can, but they set the other tools 'in-line', as most people use them more frequently. However, I'm reviewing the Explorer very soon, which has an in-line Phillips... 😉 The Scientist & Yeoman had in-line Phillips, I wish they'd bring back those models! However, if you find the right 1/4" socket, you can slide the socket over the end of the large flathead/caplifter and put any 1/4" screwdriver bit you want in there... Thanks for stopping by, ATB Gus 🍻

@BCJerbs Год назад

5stars indeed

@gadgetgus Год назад

Cheers brother 💪🍻 Atb Gus 👍

@marcdee4427 Год назад

It could be better though, just add scissors ✂️ lol 😂

@gadgetgus Год назад

😁 I also enjoy the Super Tinker and will be reviewing that soon... I use the Spartan, Tinker or similar, since they are all great options, when I know I'm not going to need scissors that day or weekend 😉 Atb Gus 👍
