Hey guys. While my EDC changes a lot, there is one staple that is ALWAYS there. A SAK. What's your favorite SAK model to EDC? Tell me👇

@its_just_sock 4 года назад

never carried one before, but from these i think id go with the cadet, feel like it would be a good pairing with the gerber dime.

For 10g more i prefer the Mini champ. Orange peeler/box opener, 2nd blade and nail cleaner are handy for me

@EBuff75 4 года назад

I carried the Executive for years. In college, the orange peeler worked really well for unlocking simple door locks on practice rooms, study rooms, etc.. Just reach into the crack between the strike plate and the door and then pull back, using the hooked part of it to snag and retract the latch. Sort of like using a credit card, but much easier. Also, the tip of the orange peeler is a flathead screwdriver.

@oling2812 4 года назад

Although it literally never ever gets mentioned, my favourite SAK is the Bantam. Essentially a trimmed down cadet which combines the bottle opener and can opener into an incredible single 'combi' tool which works great for either task. It's a single layer SAK weighing in at just 29g (1 ounce) which is 11g lighter than the SAK minichamp (also one of my favourites and on my keyring). It's an invisible knife which never leaves my person and I completely forget it's there.

@timothyvolkers5343 2 года назад

I picked up the cadet recently and I really love it. I however bought the 2020 limited edition version in the Indigo Blue Alox handle scales. I picked up the 2020 limited edition version in memory of my mother that passed away just a couple of weeks into 2021. She was much loved by everyone that knew her but she was my roommate, closest friend and confidant. My mother was Chronically ill and had been close to death several times over the last decade of her life but finally her illness came to an end on January 15 2021. Interestingly enough just 2 weeks after the passing of her father someone I greatly respected and considered a good friend. So in memory of my mother especially but my grandfather as well I picked up the Victorinox Cadet 2020 limited edition version in Indigo Blue it is and will always be a special piece of my pocket knife and EDC collection.

@rashadnagi7531 4 года назад

My Tinker goes everywhere with me, I always wanted a real Swiss army knife as a kid and when I found out as an adult how versatile and varied the designs were. I found my match in the Tinker.

@ironman2326 Год назад

The Tinker was my first midsized real SAK that I bought in high school after I got my first job. Carried it everyday until I lost it on the ship in the Navy back around 2002. Just now bought another one (though I have about 8 or 9 other SAKs now). Forgot how great it was with such a simple set of tools!

@lapischarlie207 5 месяцев назад

I always carry a victorinox, I got a huntsman from my grandfather and an SD classic from my other grandfather. I have since put the huntsman in my toolbox as I never had a use for the saw or the corkscrew and the SD classic still lives on my keychain. Now I carry a rambler in my watch pocket everywhere because I always need to use the small screwdriver, I also just bought a Tinker Deluxe because it has the small pliers and the big screwdriver which is exactly the toolset I need every day, I make jewelry and the pliers are perfect for bending wire, rings and squeezing beads, absolute 10/10 tools.

@theoutdoordude2259 4 года назад

I don't think the tinkerer gets enough respect. It's my favorite!

Super Tinker was my very first SAK back in 1985. And Yes, I got the idea from watching (the original) MacGyver. And yes, I still have that one in my collection.

@ActionBastard666 4 года назад

My absolute favorite SAK is the Tinker Deluxe. The scissors and small pliers come in clutch and I basically use them every day. I work with small PCB’s so the precision of the jaws are amazing :) That’s the smallest tool I can carry where I feel I could tackle basically everything that would be asked of me on a daily basis, unless it comes to large tasks that would require heavy pliers or a saw. Great video!

@pettadonato9391 4 года назад

Love the Explorer! The magnifying glass and tweezers make a good combo and the end placed Phillips is hard to beat. The glass is also handy as a backup firestarter.

@hunterthane5397 3 года назад

Coming from a farming, hunting, fishing, camping background the huntsman works great for me I think I've had mine close to 12 years now

@sreilly688 3 года назад

I love the Fieldmaster. It's pretty much the huntsman but it has a screw driver instead of a corkscrew that i would never use.

@JACathcart5181 4 года назад

Great review Taylor. These knives are so iconic, and I believe every serious blade collector should own a few. The fit and finish for such a massively produced tool is remarkable and you can't beat the price for a Swiss-made product. I own a dozen or so SAKs and carry a Champ everywhere, I use it frequently and it's the "safe" knife when someone at works wants to borrow a blade for something. There is no way I'm handing them my Custom Mini Crooked River :)

@billythepigeon7345 3 года назад

I got my first victorinox when I was 10, a stainless steel scaled Executive model, same model my dad carried on him throughout his adult life, but it didn't have the toothpick and tweezers so he gave it to me, I still have it. I now carry a cyber tool lite in a pouch on my belt, far too big for the pocket. I use pretty much every tool on there, with varying frequency, during my work day. I have a modified Huntsman that I use as a carving tool. I've built up a substantial collection of models over the years though.

@timothyvolkers5343 2 года назад

I've been a pocket knife EDC dude since probably around my freshman year of high school and I'm 38 in May. I was given the Victorinox Swiss Card not long after the release from my sister for Christmas. I love the Victorinox card and use it frequently but the tool I use the most from the Swiss card is the scissors. I've used the tiny writing pen and the little knife but I frequently return to the scissors. The Victorinox Swiss Card is probably the EDC item I keep with me that's the oldest EDC tool that I own. It would be either the card or a Kershaw Chive, the Chive was my first quality pocket knife. I love both tools but the Swiss card is in my wallet and goes with me everyday.

@sreilly688 Год назад

Super tinker has turned out to be my favorite. Need 4 tools. Knife, scissors, flat head and phillips. Zac is definitely onto something if the compact had a Phillips screw driver it would be perfect

@JuicyJerm 3 года назад

I currently carry the Farmer Alox. Love it, went with this model for the saw. Over time realized fir everyday use i need slightly different tools. I just ordered the mini champ in alox. Probably also with be getting the newly realized brass cadet. Im obsessed with brass. Even started making my own brass beads and brass prytools cause I got tired of paying 20 bucks for a plain brass bead I can easily make myself.

@arcticraz2701 3 года назад

Nailclip 580 and a Cyber Tool Small is my daily carry. Gotten me out of a few pickles, fixed tons of stuff... and I never have to worry about peeling a finger like a banana trying to get rid of a hangnail. The power of both of them solve darn near any problem you have!

@abutler0311 3 года назад

Agreed!! Cadet with Scissors needs to happen 👍 The money clip is a larger version of the Classic and thats the one I carry the most.. Great tool for sure.

@kulls13 2 года назад

I've carried a Tinker for years and I love it. I actually really like the secondary blade. I sharpen it at less of an angle to make it razor sharp. So the main blade is for boxes etc and the small blade is for fine cuts that I need a super sharp blade for.

I always carry the super tinker. Basic toolset with Phillips screwdriver and scissors. I added plus scales with a pen. I have a Bantam as a backup or if I want a smaller package. I made a pocket clip on a short lanyard to keep it in place and pull it out quickly.

I have a Camper model SAK that was purchased in 1962 when I was about 7 years old. As a kid it was in my pocket everyday and still rides there about once a month or so. Its in very good condition but certainly has a few scratches here and there - that's almost 60 years of memories! I bought it in an open air market in Saudi Arabia for 7 rials = about $1.40. (US citizen but my dad worked for an oil company at the time.)

@korgan7779 4 года назад

My favorite is the Pioneer X. I believe that I got several of the earliest versions of Brassworks work. When it was just one guy doing it on Instagram. Top notch stuff

@noliyoshida7486 2 года назад

My requirements for SAK are to be as few layers as possible while keeping the scissors. So my favourite 3 are Ambassador, Compact and Classic SD, in that order. The Climber gets an honourable mention for it's smaller blade - which I find I use more often than the main blade, surprisingly. So quite similar to your picks

@raijinmadapaka 4 года назад

I really dig the ALOX Minichamp in Champagne Gold.

@wileecoyoti 4 года назад

I do the classic SD when I'm out (way out sometimes) in the field. For the weight there's nothing nearly so versatile: scissors for nail hygiene (can make the difference between swamp rot and comfort), knife is self explanatory, tweezers for thorns and cactus spikes, file for modifying equipment, and the end of the file is a basic screwdriver for adjusting my gear or camera equipment. Only thing I don't think I ever use is the toothpick.

@Tundra-yb8gj 4 месяца назад

I have the Pioneer X. I use the reamer all the time. In the configuration where it’s on the end, I use it to open packages I stead of a blade.

@davidcallan7844 4 года назад

Scissors and blade on the alox money clip are great.🤘🤘

@ROE1300 4 года назад

So, based upon your comments and favorite knives you mainly use your SAKs for trimming loose threads (scissors) and cleaning/filing your nails (file). I use mine mostly while camping so my favorite is the Camper. I have uses for the reamer/awl, saw, and main blade. The secondary blade is useful for fine carving/whittling. The corkscrew holds an eye glass screwdriver, soon some tinder for fire starting, and can help increase the size of a hole bored by the reamer. Currently there is a ferro rod that replaces the toothpick. The tweezers are useful in removing splinters and ticks.

@martintanz9098 Год назад

I have over a dozen Victorinox knives. My OG was a Camper. I carried that all through my high school and college years, including a year overseas where it was my only knife and tool for the entire year. Used it for opening cans, and bottles, and uncorking wine bottles. Used the main blade for cutting meat and cheeses. And the secondary blade for cutting and peeling fruit. I basically used every single tool on that almost daily for food preparation, except for the saw. I currently carry the mini champ alox. Before that, I carried a Manager, and still might return to it someday as it was a very good EDC mini knife.. And I carry a Pioneer in a pocket organizer in my car because, you never know when you might need a knife. And finally, I rotate among various knives on my desk, but mostly stick with the Climber.

@subwoofer6726 4 года назад

I've always carried the Fieldmaster or the Huntsman; but more-so the FM because I prefer having a screwdriver over a corkscrew. and I don't mind carrying a knife with some weight. While I do carry dedicated blades, if I had to chose out of all my knives, I'd carry a SAK! My dad has carried one all his life, I think his is the classic red Fieldmaster, an it's served him well. I took it from him when it was gunked and the parts were stiff, but it was nothing a little soaking in water with dish detergent, brushing, drying, sharpening, and lubricating didn't fix! After that got his SAK nearly back to working like new (minus the inevitable wear marks that come with years of use; which I could have sent to Swiss Army for a total repair with new scale and dissembled cleaning, but I wanted the satisfaction of feeling accomplished lol). The smaller blades are for finer cutting work. For a knife enthusiast the blades are nothing to run home about, but it's good stainless steel, and in the hands of a person who's good at sharpening and honing, the blades easily fix. I would like if SAK opened up a "Custom Shop" where you could customize your SAK from ground up, your tools, size, scales, finish (stainless steel, blacked) ect. Would cost you much more but you get the SAK YOU want if none of their premade models match your fancy.

@Daveluvsoutside 3 года назад

My personal go to Victorinox that I carry literally everyday, everyplace I go is actually the only one I have at the moment and it’s the Electrician Alox. I did a lot of research and chose this knife because I liked that it had the second sheep’s foot blade over the can opener. That’s the thing I use the most on it. It’s a great knife and I love it. Wanna get either an Alox Classic or Minichamp next to compliment my electrician. I think that would be the perfect set up to me

I just bought a SAK like a month ago, and went with the Nail Clipper one. I already carry a Leatherman Skeletool, and a Emerson-Kershaw knife, so I'm unlikely to need to use the SAK knife, but it's nice to have a good pair of clippers, file, and scissors on hand (since I always notice my nails getting long when I'm not at home). Slips in an Altoids tin with a few other useful things.

My favourite Victorinox is a model no longer produced by Victorinox. It is the old Voyageur Alox, with a main blade, a combo tool with can opener, cap lifter, screw driver and a wire stripper on the first layer. And on the second layer the Voyageur has got a pair of scissors. Very nice companion for the urban environment. And my second choice would be one of the old Golfer models. It is a slightly smaller Victorinox Compact, without the nail file on the hook.

I couldn’t quite wrap my head around your observations: first you say the pioneer x is too big, and shows that prefers a custom that is about the same size (thickness of the scales), then you say the cadet is too small… well, there is no in between (except maybe the Evo series, that have broader blades, at 85mm length, but with thicker scales and no alox). These custom scales are very cool and the addition of the pocket clip seems a nice touch. I really forget about my 2 layered SAKs in my pockets, especially when hanging with a pocket clip. They don’t bother me at all.

I use the small knives on SAKs for carving but i guess you could use it as a back up.

I like to use my Harvester when doing stuff in the garden or when I'm out camping

I've carried one of my huntsman (or a Farmer + rambler) for years, I have a celidor and a wooden scaled one. ( I did some fancy filework on the main blade.) I've been carrying a compact on a Tec P7 pocket clip for about a year, for when I'm not in the woods. It's perfect. Nearly. Huntsmen are probably going to retire once I've got the Farmer X (due end of May)

Actually I was needing this vid. I'm looking for one myself. Thanks for the content, the mind reading content😂⚠️

I love my pioneer X red carry with my Olight s1r red. But I just purchased a climber. Waiting on it.

A 58mm in some form on key ring with a Firefly vs toothpick. Pocket a SAK w/saw & usually scissors, up to Champ. With Firefly or FireAnt & tinder. Live in rural earthquake area 18-25 mi to get home if possible. Great channel

The tinker is on my keychain all day every day. Along side a leatherman squirt ps4. Together it's everything I need.

I've always been a fan of the tool set on the Huntsman, but I like the pen, pin, and file/multihook on the Compact. So here's the deal. Bought a set of dark green plus scales. A couple of simple mods to open a second pin slot and short tweezer slot (with tweezers filed to a point) and it's almost my perfect SAK. To get all the way to perfect, I would have to swap the multihook for the Compact version, but that's one mod I haven't brought myself to do yet. I also added a 6mm button magnet to the can opener, and a paracord pull to the key ring with a 1 inch double drilled ferrocerium rod and 1/4"socket threaded on. The paracord pull is a loop tied with a figure eight knot and attached with a larks head for easy on/off.

The Compact with a Phillip's SD would be perfect!

I like the Explorer. The magnifying glass is surprisingly handy. I have no need for a saw. I also like having 2 blades.

I’ve carried a ‘classic’ on my keychain for over 30 years.

@janodewald6087 4 года назад

Just bought a Classic for my wife. Right now on my belt is the Rescue Tool, got a Sentinel and a Bantam Alox, but at the moment, I am thinking about purchasing a Cybertool M. I don't have custom scales for them and I don't carry them as backups, so the SAK is always my go to blade as well. And dude, start drinking wine, you are missing a lot of joy in life ;-)

I love my Huntsman. So much utility for outdoors.

@maxneyasit8130 3 года назад

Mini champ, pioneer X, hunter XT and some times hunter pro I think, rambler, compact and waiter is perfect EDC tools to

@johnryan1386 2 года назад

Hoping to pick up one of DE Custom Forge titanium pioneer at his next drop. If the compact only had the blade scissors and combo tool it would be perfect

For me the best is Huntsman and Minichamp. I have both.

@ryanl3106 3 года назад

the secondary blade I found more useful than the primary blade. I use the 2nd blade mainly for open boxes and cutting ropes/lines (doing dirty work). I have a Victorinox Hiker, the main blade for cutting foods/pealing fruit skins, etc. (doing food-related tasks), and leave the dirty stuff for the small 2nd blade. Opening boxes will always leave some glue residue on the blade, and often hard to wash away. The only reason I regret choosing the Hiker is the screwdriver, I will rather change it to a corkscrew instead. BTW, If you know how to open an oyster, you can open it using the bottle opener on your 91mm Swiss army knives(bigger is better). I used it to open at least a dozen of them when I don't have a proper oyster knife in hand.
