WTB one hand opening SAK***FOUND***

[Phil_B]

WTB a one hand opening Swiss Army Knife. These are locking blade but I don't know the model type. The blade is similar in style to the Spyderco design, with a hole pull.
Condition is not important, so long as it's not broken (broken scales is fine as I'll re-slab it).
Missing toothpick etc, no worries either!
Got one? Cash PP waiting....

I think you want the Victorinox Trailmaster.

They can be had online pretty cheap.

I have one. It's ok as SAKs go. The blade lock is "backwards" from traditional liner locks. I don't like serrated blades, but this is a pretty good one -- not deep serrations like Spydercos.

Thanks guys. Phil. :-)

If you want to remove the serrations, I did a write-up on SOSAKonline. If you don't like the chisel grind and front serrations; they are easily removed.

Thanks Saunterer, that's a terrific site. Two things close to my soul, Cats and SAKs.
I can't open your pix, but I found a pic of a beautiful carbon fibre SAK on the custom section on the site.
I've Emailed the site (vet charity one) to see if he'll ship to me here (UK).
I noticed for the first time that the Bundeswher knife and trailmaster one I'm after are the same bar the handles.
Thanks again. Anyone not been to the Vet charity site, please go, it's well worth it.
Ta mate, Phil. :-)
Yep, got your pix to open now, thanks. Nice work, but I like serrations so no problem there.

[saunterer]

No problem Phil. I updated my picture URLs above to my home website, so maybe you can see them now. I enjoy my OHT, but really enjoy it now that the serrations are gone.

Tim is the best to work with, tell him a SOSAKer referred you.
