![Victorinox BANTAM ALOX [0.2300.26] : An expression of human genius!](/img/n.gif)
Let’s all say it together...”IT’S A SAW!”
IT'S A SAW!
I mean, it's a blade with serrations on it, but yeah it's a saw
Thank you. I almost had a stroke there for a second.
"Serrated blade"???? "Click"....off goes the video....
Also fairly easy to sharpen with super fine grit sandpaper
I wish the Farmer had a saw...
At least we get that awesome serrated blade
Dude it’s a wood SAW not a serrated blade.!
From Wiki - a serrated blade is a type of blade used on saws and on some knives or scissors. It is also known as a dentated, sawtooth, or toothed blade.
Regardless of what Wiki says, it is misleading to refer to a saw blade as a serrated blade. In the knife and multi tool community, a SERRATED knife edge is for cutting, like a plain edge is, only it has a “scalloped” or “toothed” edge for cutting fibrous things like rope or cordage. Rescue knives use this type of edge for cutting through seatbelts. SAW blades have a very different double row edge of teeth made specifically for SAWING through wood, branches, etc. That is a saw blade. You cannot CUT fibrous materials with a SAW blade, just like trying to “saw” through a branch with a serrated cutting edge would take a long time… Hope this helps.
Thank you. The SAK Farmer does not have a serrated blade, it has a wood saw. Have you looked at the Rambler?
You're the first person I have heard refer to the saw as a serrated blade. Victorinox are cool. I have a 1983 Soldier and a Rangergrip 78.
Not the first time for me. But I find it totally confusing. A serrated blade is totally different from a woodsaw in my mind.
@@miklospinter Then call is a hard cheese grater or a peeler.

@@ImaginaryEvil Yeah not very many people are going to think of a saw when you say serrated blade.
@@ImaginaryEvil get a life dude
Its a saw man. Not a serrated blade.

Ha ! I just commented on that older Pioneer video, then found this. Glad you saw the SAK light! Do you know how to use the cap remover as a wire stripper when it's half stopped at 90 degrees?
The Bantam's combo tool is not only a bottle opener but a can opener, too. I think you didn't mention that.
And there are quite a few colors out there, but some of them are not easy to find, and most have a shop logo of some kind because Vic requires it for many years now.
*SERRATED BLADE OR BETTER KNOWN TO EVERYONE ELSE AS A FUCKING SAW*
I personally like the size and robustness of the Pioneer-size better. And the reamer.
The Bantam is incredibly thin indeed, but I also find the combo tool too thin. When I have to pry, I'm not really worried about my Pioneer - I would be much more careful with a Bantam.
Nice collection and I agree that the cadet is a nice all around carry-able SAK. The green looks good too.
The tip of the nail file on the cadet can also be used as a screwdriver works pretty well.
Same with the tip of the "real" metal file on other models.
Right now I have a red alox Cadet on my keys.. I saw that Knifecenter was offering a black alox Bantam and I was excited because I wanted to get a SAK with about the same blade length but substantially thinner on my keychain.. Bantam would have been perfect but no keyring unless I wanna get the plastic version.
I think that new style nail file will strike a fire steel. Have not tried it but it seems like it would.
Even Victorinox calls it a saw. It works well when the little sword can’t cut through the wood.
Would you be interested in trading the green framer for a black alox Cadet
Nice. I just got the Alox Solo. I too love SAK. New subscriber too😂
All my sax are Alox except one, which is a gift.
Serrated blade!! No it's called a saw!!!!
You should try a combination of a knife+ pocket prybar.
I used to be a SAK guy until I went into knife obsession. Now I have about 6 of victorinox knives but barely use them. I can't come to terms with the thought that I have to carry 2 knives on me at the same time.
Which prybar would you recommend?
@@09198384558 there are hundreds of them! Steel/titanium... Any shapes and forms. Personally I carry Leatherman Piranha at my backpack every day. But for pocket carry I would look for something slimmer.
I have been carrying my cadet alox for 7 years now and I think I will get another one just to retire my old one
The Alox Cadet weighs half as much as the Farmer. Sold!
I hope you have a 2023 Winter Magic Alox Cadet coming
I do too 😩 but I missed them and now I can't find one. They're beautiful.
Sak’s aren’t a bad. I only have one, I actually like some of the custom ones made with titanium scales. I actually like the customs ones that people replace the blade with a Spyderco blade. I think that it makes it easier to get the blade out versus a finger nail stud to get the blade out.
In the country I live, Bantam Alox is also very hard to find now even in its standard version (0.2300.26), and the 0.2301.26 version (Bantam Silver Alox with keyring) is impossible to find here.
But I'm going to pick mine up today (standard silver), along with Pioneer. Don't really see the point in a Cadet when you have every nail related tool on a 58mm SwissLite on your keychain or Rambler in your small pocket...
Oh my days, have you never seen or heard of a saw? After you called it a serrated blade for the second time i had to stop the video.
In his defence, a saw 🪚 is a serrated blade.
I like SAKs too. And the alox is ribbed for my pleasure.
At least you know enough to pronounce the brand name correctly. The amount of people who call it Victoria Knox is annoying.
I really don't know why victorinox doesn't have serrated blade in medium knife series 😐
It is not a serated blade. It is SAW!!!
i know i dont like the year on the side, the older ones never had a date on the Alox, i dont mind on the blade though . . .like the older knives . . .
The year is only printed on the Limited Editions which are produced for a year. Regular silver coloured ones don’t have the year printed on.
I love my serrated blades and 50% blade stops...lol.
Great review just an amusing vernacular.
sure thats not a saw
I carry the Pioneer X or Canper plus every day.
Pioneer X Inox is a great knife.
@@davidmathews2124 Absolutely agree
Pioneer x is the best SAK in my book.
👍🏻
did he just call a saw a "Serraded Blade" ?
I almost had a stroke
call an amb-a-lance!
Just don't go up to a girl and ask if she wants to see your SAK.
Obligatory comment about saw/serrated blade.
Cadet looks great!
i know this has been already pointed out, but how are you gonna make review videos and not know what a saw is lol
.....serrated blade? Its a wood saw.
I hope Bantam X is exist
Ooo nice…. A serrated blade
he's clueless and missis the whole point of the half stop ,,,its so you lay the wire under he blade ,,twist it than run thru the stripper ,,,he also misses the fact of the can opener ...lot to be said about research before posting a video to youtube...also that is called a saw its not a "blade"
wow. You should delete this video and reshoot referring to the "serrated blade" as a SAW!!!!
You are going to get slammed again.....for not knowing the difference between a SAW and a serated blade. get your facts right before you do the video.
It would appear you learned nothing lol...how do you years later do a review and call a saw a serrated blade...
either trolling or an utter buffoon
Serrated blade? Bye..
You know that film SAW? IT IS A S.A.W.
