Two New Swiss Army Knives

Two big, fat SAKs from the gun show in Albuquerque this weekend. After I clean them up, sharpen them, and put a little lube on the hinges, one's going in the car's glove compartment, the other in the truck's glove compartment.

Two big, fat SAKs from the gun show in Albuquerque this weekend. After I clean them up, sharpen them, and put a little lube on the hinges, one's going in the car's glove compartment, the other in the truck's glove compartment.

I bought some used SAK's at gun shows. They were hand picked and had little wear. I used metal polish to clean off some small scratches on the blades. Had to hone some. I love them as much as those I bought new.

I sprang for a new leather SOS Kit from Swiss Army Brands for a used SwissChamp. I keep one of these at home and one in my briefcase, so it's aways where I am.

Now, we need to get you to the point where you'll buy a good knife to retire that old, oversharpened Buck Woodsman.Their Model 105 Pathfinder is a good one. The steel is probably easier to sharpen than in their old ones.
