Re: [OldTools] Pocket Knives - Derived from Honing Oil Thread


I bought my second SwAK (Swiss Army Knife) in a Sporting Goods store during
Christmas break 1987 near Big Mountain Ski Area, Montana (USA Jeff), having lost
my first one somewhere in the Middle East.  It is the "Camping" model -no longer
listed; and has  hack saw, and wood saw blade along with the usual suspects
(scissors, toothpick, 2 blades, two openers, etc).
It is in my pocket right now.  I keep telling myself to send it in for repair
(one of the scales (sides) is broken and glued on, the small blade is getting
short from too many sharpenings and the scissors spring is broken.  But I'm just
too attached to it to want to risk losing it or going without it for a few
weeks.  (maybe my misplaced wallet crowbar also has something to do with that).
