World's Largest Tool (Large Pictures)

#1

Post by para-force »

Swiss Army Knife tool that is.

Taken from here, the source on SAKs, as described by Dennis Piretra, Marketing Director for Wenger North America:

"Thought you'd want to see this. We have one here in NY and have a few more
in-bound from Delemont. It weighs 2lb 11oz and measures 8 3/4" wide. Total
implements: 70 (I think). Do you think we should make a pouch for it?"

Well, it'd be a great conversation piece.

And think about the gag potential: "Could I borrow your knife?" "Sure, here it is."

It would take you ages to get the knife out :D
Do you think you could use it? :confused:

Getting it out would be part of the fun. It shall be done with fluerish, pizzazz.

Actually using the tools is near impossible, adding to the affect.

It would be a lidicrous proposition, add to the "knife-nut" persona.

You could just drop the **** thing on the neck of the bottle and open it that way. Come to think of it, this is a great SD tool; just throw it at your attacker and render them unconscious. :D
Ask me where I got my awesome SUPERHAWK!

More like Mid-Cal now
