![]() ![]() Or, how come I can’t have a Swiss Army knife exactly the way I want? I started looking into what the world of SAKs was like and I had the same question that almost all fans have – how come there isn’t a perfect SAK. I have a number of multi-tools now including many Leathermans, a Victorinox SwissTool, a Gerber, and a SOG PowerLock model, but the long tradition and classiness of a Swiss Army knife has always appealed to me. Truth be told, I only used it around my uncle’s basement to cut sheets of paper and saw through empty soda cans and chopsticks. It’s still in perfect condition with not a hint of rust or wear. I recently was organizing my EDC and found the Wenger again. He bought me a Wenger Backpacker II and I cherished that thing so much I kept the original box and instruction sheet for the next 15 years. One summer, I asked my uncle to buy me a Swiss Army knife from the small town’s outdoors store. When I wasn’t out doing fun things like that, I was taking advantage of their cable TV in the basement, watching MacGyver and wishing I was part of the Phoenix Foundation. ![]() My uncle’s family would take me out fishing and on boat rides on the Great Lakes.
