My Swiss Champ predates the parcel hook and the pin. It has lived in my pocket nearly every day for 37 years and has saved my bacon many many times.
Excellent to hear!
Ive had my Swish Champ for 28 years, I've lost the plastics and mini tools and the scissors are broken, but still my favourite multitool. Think it's time for a new one though haha
@@UJSupanova I have replaced the original pen twice with a new one, replaced the tooth pick with a Firefly fire starter and added Fire Ant Helix Tinder to the corkscrew under the still original micro screwdriver. The scissors are still going strong, I just have to tighten them regularly.
@@johnossendorf9979 Excellent, some good upgrades there
That’s sooo cool!! Such a great testimony to Victorinox too.
A man enthusiastically talking about the subject of his passion. What a sight, honestly! And I also appreciated that your knife seems to be super heavily used (as it should be). Being the first time viewer of your channel, I'm genuinely charmed.
Thank you 😊. Certainly heavily used. So far today on feed sacks, bailer twine etc.
Not seen him before but he’s a great presenter
@@elliottalter7937 Thank you ☺️
Nice video! I bought one in Switserland when I was 15 years old. Now, over 30 years later, it still works well.
You can't say that for many purchases!
Thank you for your video. I have carried different SAK's for over 30 years. They are excellent and non threatening. Thanks again. Regards from Durban, South Africa
They really are a tool, not a weapon!
I have owned my Swiss Cybertool for 15ish years and I JUST found out there is a pin under the corkscrew thanks to you. Thank you!
I didn't know for a long time either 😁
Since I was a small boy, I have owned so many knives amd pocket knives. They are invaluable tools and I carry one all the time and find I use one several times a day. For years and years, I never got round to buying into the hype of the Swiss Army Knife. I have multi tools and many small pocket tools that go into pouches or bags and tins. Then, a few years ago, I bought my son his first knife; a Hunter Swiss Army Knife. I was very impressed and he uses it still to this day, on a daily basis. Somehow, I still failed to buy myself one!! Then, FINALLY early this year, aged 60, I bought the latest version of the Hunter and at the same time, discovererd Felix!! What a revelation! I am now a huge fan and love the qualty and utility of these knives. I have added simple extras to mine, such as a pin, as it didn't come with one, but had the hole. I also bought a screwdriver for the corkscrew, and brilliantly, a great little flat ferro rod, made especially to fit in the tooth pick slot, as I also do a bit of bushcraft and always need to be able to spark up a fire. I already own a clever little Swiss Card, bought for me as present, many years ago, by a dear friend, and that has the biro and a tooth pick anyway, but I now want to change the scales on my knife, so I can add a biro back into the knife itself. Great tools and I am a genuine convert. What a nice clear video you have made and what a beautiful place you live! Thanks. 😊
Swiss Army Knives are easily overlooked because they are inexpensive and unassuming. But they just work!
Can I ask where you got the small ferro rod from
@@TheFairway8 Hello there! Yes, I just looked them up on the internet, and found a company called Firefly accessories who make a pack of three of them, ready designed to fit in the toothpick slot on most SAK's. I may have bought from Heinee Haynes or e-bay....cant actually remember! A quick check just now shows them listed on e-bay.
They were not cheap! (really annoying actually, for such a simple and small tool) but they will last a long time. I have deployed the other spares to a couple of other very small pocket fire lighting kits to carry in other tiny tins etc. with tinder. You might find a few other types available if you search and might find them cheaper. The ones I bought, have a glo-in-the-dark plastic tip bonded to them, (and shaped like the top of the toothpick where they fit perfectly into the knife), which I assume, might just help find it of you drop it in the dark....assuming the knife has been exposed to enough light to charge it up! If you keep the knife in your pocket or a sheath, its probably a gimmick! It is a very effective tiny rod and I have already used it to start fires very easily. Top Tip: these rods are flat, to fit into the toothpick slot. You should only strike along the narrow edge, not the flat surface. This will help stop snapping it if you are a bit too rough (they spark very easily so you don't need a lot of force!) and also will mean it does not wear down and become too loose to stay in the toothpick slot. Hope this helps. Have fun!
Love the idea of the dressmaker's pin, will search through my wife's sewing kit for one to replace the one in my Fieldmaster! Great video, love your natural enthusiam.
Thanks! You want the type with the slightly smaller head - the very large don't fit
Excellent video information. My SAK is the Huntsman.
Suggestion, please in your future videos eliminate background music. We came to hear you, yet to do that we must fight the music. Many viewers have hearing difficulties, the background music quickly becomes very annoying and intrusive. Thus, they must concentrate on your voice while at the same time concentrate on attempting to tune out the music. Very frustrating.
I understand, but others prefer music. It's hard to please everyone
The little pin can also be bent on one of the can opener tools to turn it into a fishhook for fishing..
Oh I like that 👏
That's what she said.
Swiss army knifes are the best.
They are incredibly useful and amazing value!
I just found your channel and I really enjoy it! Look it forward to a lot more content!
Awesome! Thank you!
Great tip with the plastic head pin and the sides with pen hole.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the modding tips. It looks like there are other slots that could be accessed, as well,
by cutting through to them. And I hadn't before seen the idea of remove the scale to perform helpful maintenance on the SAK. Great idea.
Glad it was useful
I like the yellow dayglow plus scales !
Helps me not lose it 🤣
The tweezers can be inserted and pushed into the center hole of a non key interior door knob to unlock and open the door your little one just trapped themselves inside. (USA)
I suspect your locks are different to ours but that's a great tip!
... or you can use a hairpin, small screwdriver or cap to a ballpoint pen.
@@formermpc10 Wow they aren't very secure are they? 😁
When the thumbnail popped up in my feed I thought for a minute that it was one of Felix's videos! I did put plus scales on my 33 year old Huntsman recently, and with properly cleaning and lubrication it is like new (apart from so much blade having been sharpened away!)
Great video, sharing the SAK love.
Hi Alan! Felix is awesome isn't he? I nicked the idea of dunking the SAK in hot water to soften the scales from him - it really works 👍
You can't go wrong with a Swiss Army Knife. One more tip if you want to upgrade/replace scales, there's a UK ebay seller who sells replacement scales with a pocket clip attached. The clip is screwed in and then glued on to the back scale, the one with the space for the screwdriver or corkscrew, on the opposite end, and done so well that they look like they came from the factory with the clip on, also very secure. He offers a variety of sizes and colours of pocket clip, as well as a variety of scale colours. Amazingly the price is pretty much the same as what you'd pay for just the scales without the pocket clip, I think I only paid £12 with free p&p for my black plus scales, with matching black pocket clip.
Great tip Simon, thanks 👍
I have several of these knives. Love them. My Dad was the first person to have one, many years ago, in the fifties. He had found them when living in Switzerland in the late forties. He loved the ones with lots of attachments.
Really enjoyed this video! Unfortunately all my knives are too old to have the pin and biro! Cheers from Nova Scotia.
Good excuse to add another one to the collection 😉
Love the yellow scales!
Me too - I can find it when I put it down 😁
They do look sharp. Might have missed it-what model did you use for the yellow scales?
Awesome job. Enjoyed your enthusiasm and information
Thanks Shane 👍
Brilliant mod kit bro!
👍
Great tutorial. Someone needs to rototill those weeds behind you. None of mine have the hole in the Awl or the pin.
Anyone who rototills my wife's cottage garden plants better be fast on their feet 😁
In Canada that would be a noxious weed patch. Sorry.@@EnglishCountryLife
@@gordbaker896 Really, you don't like things like Lupins & Delphiniums? Here cottage gardens are very informal and flower all season in succession
I prefer Geraniums, Daffodils, Roses, violets, alstromaria and perriwinkle for Ground cover.
Tulips planted in orderly bunches etc.@@EnglishCountryLife
@@gordbaker896 That's seen as "parks & gardens" in traditional cottages here (meaning stiff and formal) 🙂
That was awesome. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for the clear demo of how to change the covers. My Champ came with red. But that yellow would be better for visibility purposes. I'm a fan of the Victorinox Swiss Army Knives, and ever since I was able to buy the first Champ, I have kept upgrading to the newer version. I love them. My favorite tools are the scissors first, then the rest. The pliers were a great addition. The Phillips screw driver and tweezers have always been a go-to tools. My first knife was very useful, and the very first thing I cut was my thumb, after which I learned to respect it.
The scissors are amazing - especially for their size. The Swiss Army knife is genuinely amazing value
Great video thanks a lot ❤
I love all my Victorinox!
Me too!
Thanks for the video! That was exactly what I searched for. I'll update my knife now with those new usefull extras.
So glad it helped Eryk 🙂
Brilliant! I'm off to treat my faithful old SAK to some new scales and a pen. I've already got the pin & little screwdriver and agree that they both come in jolly handy!
Outstanding, let me know if you find it straightforward?
Very useful, thank you for this video!
Glad you found it useful 🙂
Glad you found it useful 🙂
The dressmaker’s pin is a great idea. It should also be a bit easier to use (and not lose!).
It's working so far 😉
do you have a link to such a pin. most pins head is too bulky, to fit with the corkscrew ...
@@g.h._4968 Honestly I just took it from Fiona's sewing box 😊
thanks
Great and informative video.
Thanks Mike!
GREAT PRESENTATION!! Please show us more everyday tools that are your favorites.
Will do!
Thank you Hugh, ive just found the pin in my SAK, i never knew it was in there👍👍
Excellent - I hadn't heard of it either for a long time - crazy huh? 🤯
Happy Sunday Hugh & Fiona from Steve in Tel Aviv, Israel, an ex-London born & bred Plonker who escaped from perfidious Albion in 1968 (during the time of the 1960's great white flight out of South East London). I am a lifelong Swiss Army Knife aficionado & have amassed over 250 Victorinox & 40 Wenger & 5 Swiss Buck Wengers (so far in my collection - but most of my SAK's are decorative scaled 58mm Classics / SD's and year end or other special collectables rather than EDC SAK's) At age 8 an uncle gave me a 58mm Red Classic for my keychain, at 10 years I bought with my saved up pocket money a red economy (no scale tools) my first 84mm Bantam & and only at age 16 did I buy a non-SAK knife for pocket carry, a Buck 110 folding hunter (It was a UK legal carry back then unlike now in 2023). I still have several SAK's over 45 years old & a number of 25 to 35+ years old well used EDC SAK's of all sizes as well as new in box / unused collectables of 20, 30 & 40+ years old. My daily carry always contains at least one SAK - my default keyring SAK, currently a SilverTech scaled 58mm Midnite Manager (I have used 58mm Midnite Mini-Champs too) & a 2nd larger bladed knife and if it is a SAK my number one preference is the 91mm Huntsman or a 91mm Compact or a 91mm Explorer or a EvoGrip S14, S17 or S18 ( lock blade, assisted opening, axis lock knifes, OTF knives are are all legal in Israel there is no blade length limitation either) or 93mm Pioneer X or Farmer X or a 111mm Nomad/Picnicker or Forester or a non SAK such as a Kershaw assisted opening knife with a 3" to 3.5" blade, like wise a 3" to 3.5" Civivi Flipper knife , a Buck 110 or 112 or a Case XX large Copperlock clip point knife.
I use all manner & size of SAK's around the house for cutting & craft work. I have enjoyed collecting & using SAK's for 64 years now, I don't feel strange going out without a watch (got my phone for that) but without a SAK in my pocket I feel naked! ATB, Steve in Tel Aviv.
Hi Steve! Got my first SAK in the 60s too. Always had one in my pocket as a boy (at school or otherwise). I'm a fan of the 91mm size as the best mix of function & portability. Camper or Huntsman for preference although I have Rangers, Evos etc.
@@EnglishCountryLife Cheers Hugh 😎👍👌
Awesome ❤
Thanks 🤗
Funny, I've just put plus scales on two of mine recently, one green and one yellow too 😀. SAKS are amazing useful. Great video. 👍
Thanks Pete. I agree, they are such an underrated tool - I use mine several times a day. Even the metal file is good!
A remarkable video indeed, brimming with brilliance. Might I gently suggest cleaning the tools for added grandeur? Eagerly anticipating the next video!
Yep, it's a knife carried in the picket, not a prop
Awesome class thanks, I acquired an older one at a yard sale and am going to upgrade it. Here in Florida were I live ,we can open carry a knife or sword of any length but need a permit if concealed a little crazy I guess, and of course all none felons can carry concealed guns which a lot of us do especially we veterans.
When you say a permit to concealed carry a knife - I assume pocket carry of a folding knife is okay?
I enjoyed your video 💜
Thank you
Good video thanks
Thanks Tom
I was sceptical when I startet the video. But you surprised me: There are still new handy things to know about SAKs.
I'm so glad it was useful - I'm still finding new things too 🙂
Thanks
Glad you liked it 🙂
Awesome
Thank you!
My deepest warmest regards
Thank you 👍
You can also add a small neodymium magnet to the knife. A very small one fits into the hook, a slightly bigger one can be stored near the base of the corkscrew (your big red pin head would get in the way though).
Great idea 💡
@@EnglishCountryLife another thing:
One can make centimeter or inch marking on the file with a pencil or text marker. Due to the rough surface they persist quite well.
They can't replace a proper ruler or calipers, but are good enough for ballparking things with known possible values. E.g, "is this bolt 14mm or 16mm?"
@jenswurm there's always measurements on the fish scaler tho..
@@danielkeslerjr4407 true, but not every model has a fish scaler.
Thanks great to know the “scales” are replaceable, I somehow lost one of my sides, and I couldn’t get it over my heart to just chuck it away, thanks again really appreciate it,
Keep well
Ciao ciao
Excellent - easy to fit a new set now 👍
Great video buddy. I do enjoy watching a fellow SAK enthusiast 😁
I put Micarta scales in the compact and Ranger huge upgrade to the original scales, much less slippery however they don’t have the pin slot which is not a huge deal for me.
I made a snake knot lanyard with a dressmaker’s pin inside using bank line for my Compact. Works surprisingly well and holds the pin very securely.
The Leatherman small nylon pouch is perfect for a 2 layer 91mm SAK with a little effort originally. May even stretch to a 3 layer.
Good to know!
you can warm the new scales in hot water, then they will fit over the studs.
the pen fits tightly inside the corkscrew for writing, where as elsewhere its still can move slightly.
Interesting - I'll try it in the corkscrew
Una cuchilla de trabajo sin duda. Todas las que salen en vídeos están limpias, excepto estas.
Yes indeed - lives in my pocket!
👍 I love my Victorinox SAKs.
I have a Spartan for in town carry and a Huntsman for when I am in the countryside. One or the other is with me every day. I also place the Ultra scales on my knives and the Yellow color is my choice as well.
Thank you for this video.
They sound like great choices!
I’m 66 and we regularly took knives into school for dinner time fun including sheaf knives.
I still have plenty UK Legal carry knives that are always in my pockets
Pen knives were just tools back then. Simpler times.
Subscribed 🦉
Welcome 🤗
I have had my swiss champ for about 15 years by now and i allways carry it on me in the victorinox beltpouch.
Good choice although I prefer something a little slimmer
Lovely presentation.
Even though I knew about the option of changing to plus scales, your video was a nice distraction on a Saturday afternoon. Like and subscription is done.
Glad you enjoyed it!
You inspired my gf and I to go SAK shopping:D I'm getting a Ranger and they're getting a Swiss Tool X! We're very excited! Also Felix Immler is a freaking genius 😐
Excellent! Ours are used every day, from opening feed sacks to trimming branches. I'm sure yours will be every bit as useful!
oh and yes, he is 😁
Your pin seems way better than the original.
It's certainly easier to get out! Cost less than a penny too 😁
The little tweezers is the first thing to fall out and get lost.
finally you've found a useful function for the corkscrew tool. I usually cut it off.
I've never lost tweezers? Perhaps try some new scales on your knife?
The Swiss Army Knife in this video is one of the most common ones available comercially, it's called the "Huntsman".
Try the "Fieldmaster" model instead, it is identical in every way, even in price range, to the "Huntsman", however, it comes with a phillips screwdriver instead of a corkscrew.
Might be more up your alley.
I would love more videos about tools! It is always great to learn what is useful and practical :-)
Righton- let me give it some thought!
Gday all, as an Aussie i shoudnt be making fun of accents. but also as an Aussie have too. its a dilemma. when you first started talking about the PIN on the swiss army knife, the only word i kept hearing was PEN.
just poking fun, thx for the video and a bunch of info i never knew. CHEERS.
There's a pen in there too?
Do you think you can fit a bit of cut-down emergency microfiber cloth somewhere under one or two of those tools?
I used to have one of these when I was a kid and I saw the Huntsman on sale for only 28 dollars on Amazon and decided it's time to go back to the basics and get one of these again.
I'm thinking of customizing mine a lot for fun.
I think that would be a challenge with the cut outs but you might be able to fit some under one of the scales and then pry the scale off to access the microfibre
@@EnglishCountryLife I'm thinking something cut down to about the size of my thumbprint if laid flat. Then maybe it can squeeze under something or maybe even wrap it around the eyeglass screwdriver bit.
@@Xearrik The small screwdriver doesn't occupy all of the length of the corkscrew so you could probably manage something there
you could make a pouch for the knife out of microfiber cloth.
@@cplcabs Great idea
The scales can actually be removed using the toothpick!
I've never tried that!
Another WoW moment watching your vids.
I have a small one (Quiet at the back there) and it has a hole for a pin!!!
Now to find a pin
I found mine in Fiona's sewing box...she then watched the video 🤦
Your excellent tips gave me good ideas for modifying my own SAKs.
A suggestion: at 2 minutes 20 seconds, your introduction was a bit too long, and would have lost a lot of younger viewers who lack the attention span of us middle-aged geezers. You also risk losing viewers who figure that sometimes the reason people take a long time to get to the point is because they don’t have much of a point in the first place.
However, your points and suggestions were very good ones, so thank you for producing this video.
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
I like the stayglow (glow in the dark) scales.
I've not seen them John - do you have a link?
@@EnglishCountryLife hi I've not seen seen the scales sold individually. I've had several knives that came with them.
@@johnlynch7834 Interesting - I'll look into them thanks 👍
Bought a Swiss army knife for my nephew when I was in Europe decades ago - don't know what I was thinking to not buy one for myself.
Absolutely - but it's never too late 😁
You may be able to cut the pen notch on regular scales
I wouldn't be surprised - if you are careful!
A few years ago I almost got fined and or arrested in the UK after I had bought myself a Seagull outboard motor. The reason was that I was carrying a non locking blunt nose sailor's or boat utility 3" knife. The problem apparently was in the locking poker one uses to undo knots that was part of the boat knife. I needed it to tie the motor to the crate.
That's ridiculous 😳. It's absolutely fine to have any kind of knife so lung as you have a good reason. I've carried a 12" fixed blade and an axe before!
My huntsman and my camper both have plus scales, mini screwdrivers, and custom made lanyards. So does my explorer.
Did they come with plus scales or did you swap them?
I swapped them. My camper is yellow, and my huntsman is green. Also have an explorer, soldier, minichamp ans a swiss card!
@@EnglishCountryLife
@@mjdegrey4843 Good job, I much prefer the plus scales!
As you say, a pen is always useful. I'm not really an outdoors person, but the wood saw on the camper and the huntsman make them perfect all round knives.@@EnglishCountryLife
@@mjdegrey4843 I agree. I wish there was a phillips screwdriver on them both
I have the huntsman Swiss Army knife and I’m waiting for my + scale in forest green to come in the mail
Excellent - hope it goes well!
Now, I have to get my two and check for the pin and see if I have the slot for the pen.
Enquiring minds need to know whether you found the pin hole 🙂
My smaller green one has a pin hole, but the larger red one does not. The red one does has two saws. The green one has a grey thing, but I am not sure what it is or does. It has a battery.
The grey thing is a light
@@gumm1912 They are not very good I'm afraid
Would you tell us the name of the model of the knife used in this demonstration?
The model that I added the new Scales to is an old Victorinox Ranger amzn.to/3KdXcfG
Fortunately we do not have the restrictions on us as you do in the UK, so I always have a couple of blades with me for various uses. I would add the small ferro rod to any SAK (takes practice to use) as you can never carry too many of these useful things on you.
I confess to always having a jet flame lighter & decent torch in other pockets. I would like the option for a small fixed blade belt knife but it's too much hassle
Smart addition BG - that will come in handy for the zombie apocalypse. As the only prepper around, all of the hot chicks will forget that they once thought you were a paranoid whackjob who lived in his mother’s basement and they will breathlessly throw their quivering, lithe bodies at you. Very smart indeed.
I want to get a sak so bad, i have s gerber multitool amd only see weher i woukd miss the needle nose pliers. I dint know which sak to get
For me, my favourite models that are not too large but have the best tool selection are the Huntsman, Camper and Ranger models
You can screw the mini screwdriver in backwards
Interesting - does that help in some way?
@@EnglishCountryLife not really that I know of, but it seems like it could
Another one for you is I tie a short (braided jute) lanyard (square knot to ring) and sort of clove hitch it to my belt or loop so it doesn't make me unbalanced in my pocket on long walks.
@@tylergramelspacher7706 I know they do other tools. I wonder if I could fit two in if I reversed one?
Remember WD40 is not not not a lubricant. It was invented as a water displacement WD liquid. There was some good spray liquid occurred in a blue can with bright yellow markings was that the WD40 could have its original and best use----- water displacement, folks.
And given this knife was immersed in water to soften the scales, water dispersal is why it was used
Where can you not have Swiss Army knife?
In the UK a few places such as schools or airports
@@EnglishCountryLife thank you anywhere else (have you got any website recommendations or links if you don’t want to type it)
I like mine. I have 3
Such useful things!
what knife did you use in this episode? 😊 5:45
Fairly sure it was an old Victorinox Ranger

Thank you very much!

🙂
What is the english word used in the video for PEN? In the USA, we call it a pen, but Felix and you used a different work and B???
As for what else I want to know... What meals can you fix "in season", 95-100% of everything coming from the garden? In the modern world, it is so easy to buy and cook stuff which was raised, grown half way around the world, and not eat "in season" food or grown at home and canned, frozen, dried...and then pulled out as needed.
The word you are looking for is biro 🙂.
We make so much. A simple Marinara is a great place to start but roast chicken, with roast potatoes, fresh peas & squash with sage and onion stuffing is a staple here
Check put Nikgyver too
Check out?
Aye, his channel just like Felix's has great tips for SAK enthusiasts. Thanks for the video. The more SAK tips the better.
Why do you dry it with a hair dryer and then hit it with Water Displacement formula 40?
The hairdryer removes most of the water & the WD40 penetrates the joints & pivots. No point in soaking the whole knife in WD40
Nice video, but I wouldn't use WD40 on a knife that I'm going to use for cutting food.
Good job that I don't use it on food then. This is for feed sacks & bailer twine (although I doubt a drop of WD40 would do me much harm). For me, if a knife has been immersed in water, ensuring that water is dispersed is imperative.

Push rod fir a crack pipe ?
Sorry, I don't have your level of experience of crack pipes
the locking blade is a safety feature and ridiculous to ban it.
Sadly there are all sorts of laws that I disagree with. That doesn't alter the fact that they are either legislation or case law precedent.
My British equivalent is all stainless - and has a hammer. This is so that you can not only remove nails from horses hooves but put them back. I am not joking, present from a daughter, she always hits the nail on the head for presents.
Is it a lightweight hammer for pocket carry?
A yellow swiss army knife? Thats just not right.
Would you prefer blue? 😁
@@EnglishCountryLife yikes! There are blue?! No no no, anything but red is sacrilege....well maybe apart from the wood scales with the metal logo embedded which look quite snazzy....and maybe the red and black ones too.
@@cplcabs There are white, green and more - all real Victorinox options
@@EnglishCountryLife just been looking at different options/colours, I see there is also a clear one and even pink as well...such sacralidge! Well, each to their own really. Some scales look good like a titanium one, although its £68 and there is copper and brass too but they are not original Victorinix and way too pricey.
Here is a little story. About 4 years ago or so, I was travelling from Croatia to UK and I had to transit through Geneva airport. I had a little time there, so I thought I would go to duty free to get a drink and snack to take on the plane. In the shop I saw loads of Swiss Army knives which I couldn't believe as I even got a small glasses screwdriver similar to the one shown in your video taken from me at Heathrow once and all the airports I have been through do not allow anything sharp and/or pointy when going through airport security. So anyway, I thought I would buy one (the cheapest in case it got taken) and see how it goes when boarding the plane. I asked the cashier if there would be any problems and she said no. Well, I got on the plane no problem with my swiss army knife in a plastic carrier bag with my bottle of pop and a sandwich. So it seems in Switzerland, once you go through airport security you can purchase a swiss army knife and board a plane with no problem. I do not know if you can go through airport security with one though.
Crazy...especially since in the UK we can't even carry one without a good reason even if it is 3 inches or under.
@@cplcabs You can carry a non locking pen knife with under 3" blade in the UK except in certain places like schools
Why, oh-PLEASE-tell-me- WHY, do so many people refer to a SLOT HEAD screwdriver as a FLATHEAD screwdriver?? They will drive a dome-headed screw just as well as a flat-headed screw as long as they both are slot headed, but they will not drive a Phillips screw at all well even if it has a flat head as many, if not most, do. WHY, WHY, WHY?
The three types of screwdriver in the UK (no idea where you are) are flat head, Phillips & Pozidrive. Flat head refers to the head of the screwdriver, not the screw head. A flat head screwdriver can drive a dome headed screw or a countersunk screw head or a truss screw head. I'm not sure what a flat head screw would look like? I've never seen one as far as I know.
Your knives are pretty dirty. Best to use an old toothbrush.
Oddly my knives are carried and used every day. They are tools, not ornaments
@@EnglishCountryLife you're right. I think it's perfectly fine, when you can see that tools get used. My intent was not to offend but to recommend. I have in my key drawer an old toothbrush, that i use to clean my sak before i take my shoes off. Best regards.
Glad you cleaned it :)
Nice video mate. But what i find most interesting is, that @FelixImmler is referred all over YT but has only got slightliy over 100k subs himself.
Nice tip with the screwdriver in the tool slot. Thank you!
I agree - Felix is under appreciated!
@@EnglishCountryLife That was the quickest respond to a comment on YT by a creator.
@@rinnsbebelindegrombe We have notifications on - we think it's important to respond when people are kind enough to leave a comment 😁
@@EnglishCountryLife thank you for the time you re investing. When a channel has grown to specific size (like yours), its not easy to keep up. I ll now stop bothering :) have good one!
@@rinnsbebelindegrombe You too - & thank you!
