The original wire striper is not worthless. You just put the cable in it and then you close and hold the main blade on it, then you turn the cable and the blade does the cut. That notch also does way more functions than that.
@omniasomniportance38993 ай бұрын
Isn’t the issue though that if you remove the original knife, then the Spyderco ones may not necessarily be long enough to work with the wire stripper? What are the other functions you can think of for the wire stripper notch?
@greekveteran27153 ай бұрын
@@omniasomniportance3899 Who has a SAK with a Spyderco blade, a couple of people, maybe ten? I talk abou the millions of others, who own SAKS. You can use the notch to bent metal wire,create loops or half loops (hook shape).remove nails with it, open glues that their cups are glued on and can't be opened with hands,use it as a guide to create perfect straight lines and mark wood etc. Here's a KZbin video link with it's uses.

You are absolutely correct. It works well for a certain size of wire and certain size of Swiss Army Knife. Sharpening it adds some extra function and lets it work as a wire stripper on it's own.
@tazman66gt183 ай бұрын
another thing about the Wenger scissors is that they are micro serrated so they grab and hold whatever you are cutting and are supposed to be self sharpening. the nail clippers also have the serrated scissors.
@FittoSurvive3 ай бұрын
True. Yes, the nail clippers are an implent from Wenger that Victorinox bought out. That's also why the nail clippers are 65mm.

i really like the blacked out version. i’d probably pick black g10 liners because not a fan of carbon fiber pattern, which reminds me of pretend vinyl wrap that try to look like it’s a certain material and cheesey car interiors. black is black, but carbon fiber isn’t. the springs being replaceable is a plus and better rebound than level type springs. great work.

Thanks. I have the same issue when choosing a "favorite". Yes, sometimes it's like trying to build a puzzle from 4 different boxes. 😅 This silver build was a major pain. Trying to figure out which tools are compatible and which spring they will fit on. At one point, I wrote my client and told him we'd have to remove some tools, but finally figured it out.
