Mr Mak - that’s a beautiful shot👊 never owned an alox but they definitely look thinner and more refined…I remember my grandfather had one but don’t know which model

The Pioneer has been a staple for the last 25 years. I especially like this Berry red one from 2018.

The Swiss Siprit Multi Tool is just incredibly smooth. It's one of those purchases that you just never ever even consider selling off.
The Leather Case that came with mine is top notch - very nice & has help up very well. I also have the ratchet set - I think it may be the Swiss Tool Spirit Plus? Maybe? I have the box for it put up somewhere. I can say, shes worth every red cent too.

Reground my climber as the tip gave me a cut the other day as it was protruding past the other tools. Almost full convex edge as well. Good for a while again.

Those both look so crisp! What is the second blade?

Just a slipjoint the kids and I worked on over the weekend. They overground the handle so now they call it a “hump back”.

I had to modify the spring to get it to work but still protrudes past the frame.

I pre-cut and hardened a few blanks a few years ago for something to do if I get tired of all the detail work for liner and framelocks.

Bad lighting as I got home after dark.

Here is the hump with mirror polished portions.

I do like how the rounded spine and tip came out. Not something I have done before.
