I like Swiss Army Knives. I do some collecting, especially Alox SAKs. Sometimes I modify SAKs to make them even more "ideal" EDC. Making fixed knives is another passion. But I'm a beginner and the way is long....

Martin .. I caught your comment .. " I plan to modify one for me. I'll remove the scissors layer and replace the canopener with a pruning blade and the corkscrew with a philips."
Cool .. would love to see how you do this !!! I like my SAK's too .. but, often one or two blades that just don't see much use .. would love to replace w/ those of my own desire !!
.. some of us started a grp around MODS .. you might like it ..
you have the most amazing collection of alox sak's i have ever seen! the black route 66 farmer really jumped out at me since i live practically right on top of rte 66 here in california. i especially like the ones with black blades. i believe i commented on your cadets previously. anyway, thanks for sharing your pictures. i love watching your slide show!
Greetings from AUSTRALIA Martin,I love the ALOX pix,also have 2 bicolour ALOX I purchased from you last year,pure treasure much appreciated Cheers Gregory in Oz.... ,
You have a really big and spectacular collection. I like the bi-colors ones. How many time and cash did you spend to find'em all? I can wait to see more rare SAK from you
