Victorinox Alox Bantam = ultimate minimalistic edc SAK! Fantastic, light weight and slim package. Smallish but very capable blade and the combi tool to boot! Love it 👍🏻 Outstanding review, thanks brother 😎🙏🏻
Heck yeah!! I can get down with this… my kind of SAK. I’m still growing in my appreciation of Victorinox knives. But I really love the Alox ones (I do like a jack knife and minimalist knives in general). And you’re spot on about the fit and finish. They nail it! Good stuff as always, Slippy! 👊🏻
I carry a Classic Celidor in my wallet and I plan to buy a Bantam alox as a second knife with a larger blade, which will not bulk up the wallet and will fit into a hidden pocket inside. Great review, best regards
I have a Vic-Army of one, “I think it’s called.” And it’s a real workhorse of a knife for box cutting, trimming burs off wood or plastics, and simple rope & cord cutting.
I just picked up a regular mint Bantam last weekend with some advertising on it, of course i had to use google to even find out what model it was.. I run into these things all the time, i need to start collecting them!! thanks for sharing this great piece!!
I keep flicking between getting this and the Swiss army 2… can’t decide which to get first 😂 Love the smaller size of this, but the Swiss 2 has that little pruner/hawksbill blade… decisions decisions!! Another great video and congrats on hitting 2k 🫡
Nice little knife, and as you say, ideal for when you want an inconspicuous carry. I have a Waiter which as you know is similar, but with an added corkscrew that has done good work as a party knife. 😁
I was looking at this but ended up getting a Marbles GI Jack. All I wanted was a small UK legal blade and a bottle opener. it cost like 11 quid and I'm happy with my pick up.
Great tool for carry in dress pants or when wearing a suit or formal wear. Noticed you're also a fan of the Executive, take a look at the Director. Same toolset, but with metal scales even more impressive than the alox models. You won't be disappointed.
It’s so pretty! I’ve got one on my wish list despite it being out-tooled by virtually everything else. I’m not sure if I’d use it if (when) I get one. It’s going in it’s own cushion lined bed at the back of the wardrobe.
It gave it a try some time ago, but ultimately went back to the Cadet. It's just a tiny bit larger, and if prefer having the separate can and bottle openers. The nail file is also quite useful.
I have the Bantam in the shopping cart but I didn't pull the trigger yet.. I have the signature and the camper and the scales start to fall off so I still haven't decided whether to upgrade the sd to the alox version and what model to buy from the thicker alox scales, maybe the one blade ver or farmer x, 😂 im all in or nothing . If they would make a big bantam with scissors and saw i would buy only that one. What would you buy? (All alox) Bantam + sd + SA1. Or Bantam + farmer x
You'll be arrested, and can be fined £5000 or sent to jail for 5 years if you are carrying it in public without a good reason ( such as work purposes, camping, practicing Bushcraft, that sort of thing ). And before you ask, self defence is not classed as a good reason.
Thanks for the info. I got caught in New Jersey with a switchblade back in 1998. I got 30 days in jail and a $500 fine. Now I want nothing to do with switchblades of any kind.@@zednotzee7
