A look at the Victorinox Electrician. This video has been published months after filming, so shipping from K&T should be back to normal. Fallow me on Instagram / scotsman_762
This was my first SAK. I picked it because it seemed like the perfect knife. A pry tool, a scraper/pick tool, a utility blade and a slicing blade that will actually be sharp when you need it because the other options save you from abusing your edge. I have 5 SAK’s now and several other pocket knives but this one gets the most use. I found another this summer which was after this was discontinued. I grabbed it. Backup in case something happens to this one. People say the Compact is the greatest EDC, but I carry this way more. Slimmer and robust. The plastic SAK’s kinda feel like toys compared to the Alox. This is in the conversation imo for greatest EDC SAK.
Imo this is the king of Saks. I like having two blades on a slip pocket knife, one for dirtier/rougher work and the other for more formal things. If you think of it in terms of edc it's great also, it's like all the tools save the blade from the everyday abuse that often send pocket knives to the junk drawer. Prying, scraping, popping beer caps, drilling holes in various materials, and shamefully using the knife blade as a screw driver. If you snap the tip off on a sak somethings wrong with you because there are tools in the same handle better suited to whatever snapped that tip lol
Great video! I regularly carry an Alox Electrician. Victorinox used to make several knives that could be had with or without the keyring. The Pioneer had a no keyring version. The Standard was a no KR Spartan. An 84mm cellidore Electrician was available no KR. Also, some of the 58mm 74mm came both ways
The difference in price is because the higher demand of the Pioneer which is produced in much higher volume than the Electrician, thus the lower price.
