I own a number of SAKs, and have carried them on 5 different continents over the past 30-something years. They are by far, bar none, the most handiest "multi-tools" on the face of the planet! I have a 1997 model Wenger "Soldier" that is a favorite. But the one I carry the most, whether in the pocket or resting in a nylon pouch on my belt is my Victorinox "Ranger" model. In fact, it rests on the table beside my computer here in my room in Kirkuk, Iraq as I write this. I also have a Vic "Mini-Champ" that remains in my kit bag all the time. At home in Texas, I also have a Vic "Explorer" made for "The Nature Company" chain of stores that has the addition of a saw...a very handy knife that I carried for years. As well, I have a Super Tinker that I also carry when the urge strikes me. No matter what other type of knife I may be carrying, rest assured I will have a SAK somewhere on my person!
