Every time I see your modifications for your SAK, it makes me wonder why Victorinox didn't think of that when when they designed the knife.
Thanks for this wonderful compliment!
Iirc in some locations one-handed folding knives are illegal. But I would argue most people have genuine non-murder use for swiss army knives like these and it isn't just the one-armed people who benefit.
Take a guess why Victorinox will not make a Felix Immler edition SAK.
The SAK is a lot older than one hand openers like this mod
@@QuantumMechanic_88 that’s a great idea they Victorinox totally should bring out a Felix mod’s SAK as I defo would buy one.
FYI :- The actual thumb stud is available (in many styles) from any knife making supply store and even some knife dealers will stock various thumb studs. Some of these thumb studs are threaded for "screw in" the blade where the hole in the blade must be tapped & threaded, and other models that are "screw together" types that do not require threading, but rather are two part and just use a hole and the two parts screw together.
Using pre-manufactured thumb studs does make this adding of a one hand opener much easier.
P.S. If you do happen to cut into the hollow section of the plastic handle, a drop of clear epoxy can fill the tiny void and a bit of polishing will smooth out the opening.
Thanks a lot for your tips!
Are you a Lefty?
I’m a lefty too.
Like they say Left-handed people are the only ones in their right mind 😂
@@reconty2133 It would be difficult to place the stud on the other side of the blade, you had to modify all tho other tools. The reason to do a "lefty"-stud is because the blade is mounted on this side.
To do a "righty" you had to use a waiter or a bantam as a base.
Thank you for that.
@@reconty2133 And people who are both sides ?
Good idea in case you really need it. Whenever I cut a bolt down, I thread the nut on first and twist it down to the head. It makes smaller bolts fit into your drill straighter, if that's necessary. But the main benefit is that when you remove the nut it cleans up your threads where you made the cut.
I think a drop of removable Loctite on the threads before final assembly might not be a bad idea.
Felix, you are the most clever guy I have ever seen!
Mr.Felix you truly are a gift to TH-cam my friend! Always awesome to see you doing something epic! And the how to makes it 100% better! I thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, knowledge and time with us! Hope you and yours have an amazing weekend full of blessings bruv! Cheers, Kimmers and Jerbs 👍🏼🇨🇭🔥🔪🔥🇨🇦👍🏼
Nice modification Felix , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Thanks my friend!! I appreciate your support very much!
This guy read my mind. Literally. Just a few days ago I imagined a one-hand classic vic 😆
Felix Buck knives has a stud for 8 dollars US a great one , you are the best genius !!!
As a lefty I apreciate so much this Sak modification! I think it could also work in 111mm Sak with slide lock without modifying the scales. It could make my old Work Champ even better.
Excellent job. I don’t believe my level of craftsmanship would result in such a professional product as yours !
wow that is a great mod! I wish the knives came like this from the factory. SAKs are great but a one-handed knife deploy would make it even better
You never fail your fans...with this vid, we remain devoted!
great video as usual, and a good modification for the SAK. I would NEVER do this to my Vic's, as this would void my warranty, even though the quality of Victorinox is so good that I don't think I would ever need to use my warranty. I can open my SAK with one hand now (without any add-ons), but it is slower and a little more complicated. I learn to open ALL my folders with one hand ever since I watched 127 Hours, because you never know when you will have only one hand that you can use to open your knife (even more times than if you have a boulder catch one hand), and I usually carry a fixed blade as my primary (almost ALL my fixed blades have a sawback, some better quality than others, but I really like my Carnivore-X), and always carry my Swiss Champ (usually anyway) as my backup, and as my primary, if I am NOT carrying my fixed blade. That said, I do have an inexpensive SAK, that I may do this to, just to see how useful it would be.
Mehr solche Videos Felix....das ist genau was wir alle sehen wollen. Kreative Schweizer Handwerkskunst. Gut gemacht.
Felix did it again! I love these companies that warns about voiding the warranty while, secretly, enjoys the fact the is a community that continuously buy their products for customizations. Just see Seiko for instance.
This guy is a victorinox genius. I enjoy these videos immensely.
Next time...how to switch all the tool in oposite direction to make it work for a right hand person ;-)
Great job Felix, you used very simple parts anyone can find as well as tools and made a great product!
I will certainly try this. I have other pocket folder knives I want to do this . Recently I shined up the scales with some used Swiss army knifes and giving them as gifts thank you
Felix does it again to bad I didn't have this know how about swiss army knifes when I was a kid fast forward 40 years later. Good music
Thank for this kind words...
You are magic !
The reason why I use a leatherman every day instead of a sak is the one hand opening, with this tutorial I know how I can change my SAKs. So simple, so clever ! Why didn’t I think to do that before !
Thanks for this wonderful feedback!
This looks like an interesting mod, but I’m concerned about the blade being weakened. Maybe silver soldering a piece onto the blade would work better. I have a Swiss Army knife for use while kayaking, including if I end up in the water needing to cut things (e.g. rescue) where one handed action would be useful, but I also want a UK legal carry, i.e. It must not lock. I also have a Leatherman Crunch which I’ve considered modifying the locking blade to make it non-locking. Maybe I’ll spin up the milling machine and sort it one day.
Very impressive modification, thank you so much. 👌🤠👍
Nice job! Thank you for sharing this.
Ah man, that’s amazing. Very skilled work Felix. I bet there’s a Victorinox engineer or designer watching and saying “why didn’t we think of that?” 😜😂
You never fail to amaze me Felix👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks a lot Michael!
Wicked, just wicked! Keep thinking, Felix!
Is this comment positive or negative? unsure...
Sorry. Meant to be quite positive!
Lindo trabajo. Felicidades 👏👏👏👏👏
Ja Felix! Sie sind sowohl erfinderisch als auch geschickt.👍 Bei allem Respekt, ich könnte mein Schweizer Taschenmesser nicht so brutal behandeln 😬... Ich werde meine Nägel weiterhin tragen 😊... Ich wünsche Ihnen ein schönes Wochenende!😀
Der bekommt die ja umsonst...
Great mod to an already good tool. Something that may make it go easier: thread a regular nut on the bolt before cutting it off then as you unthread it the nut will work as a thread chaser to clean up threads, making it easier to start your acorn nut when the time comes.
Excelente modificación, quedo muy práctica y bonita, buen trabajo.
Gracias!
Awesome, great job, Felix!!!!!! Congratulations. Thanks!
Thanks a lot!
Thanks Felix that will work for Germany too👍❤️😀
Ja, ist meines Erachtens 42a konform, weil es nicht arretiert.
Felix, alter Fuchs, da hast du ja wieder etwas ausgetüftelt!! KLASSE!! Danke!!
Freut mich sehr! Danke Kurt!
Excellent!!!!. Un saludo desde España 🇪🇸✨
Gracias!

Hi Felix, another well thought out modification for someone needing this, great stuff again. Cheers Will.😊😎
Wow! So cool! That's such a neat idea! Thanks for sharing that with us!
Thanks for watching!
Finally! A modded sak that doesn’t cost $300!!
😅😅
I have been requesting for this from such a long time thank you Felix
Love it!!!! I wish I had to tools to make mine like that. Awesome.
Nice idea. Thanks!
Greetings from Ukraine.
Thanks a lot!
Eres un Crack Félix,oleeeeeee ,un saludo desde España 🇪🇸
Gracias!
Great modification Felix. Thank you
Thank you very much!
good work, mr felix thank you and may God continue to bless you
Thank you very much!!
Very cool! I just recently thought of doing that with my Opinel.
Go for it!
You’re an original, Felix. I love it.
MORE THIS BRO, EPIC!
Nice modification Felix! Another option might be the Thumb Stud for Buck 110/112. This thumb stud requires zero modification to the blade. It fits over the spine of the blade and uses a set screw to hold it in place. It can be placed wherever it works best for the user. Ambidextrous. Can easily be removed with no marks or damage to the blade. The handle of the Buck knife does not need to be modified either, due to the height of the blade spine above the handle scales. The SAK handle might need to be modified. Also, the t.s. I am referring to only fits a certain blade thickness range. One would need to verify the thickness of the SAK blade BEFORE ordering that part. It runs around $6-$11USD depending which website it is purchased from. Thanks Felix!!
The thin blade on SAK's will be a problem for this style of thumb stud.
@@blueeyeswhitedragon9839 I've used a set screw on thumb stud on a Merkur Kat knife without a problem. I will have to check the thickness. I never even considered modifying the SAK handle--great idea if the screw on stud fits. I just hate weakening the knife blade.
I'm brazilian, great idea, congratulation.
Just discovered your channel. Your videos are GOLD!
woww, thank you very much!
Good Friday to you Felix. Very cool mod. Thanks for the inspiration and sharing your knowledge.
Thanks for watching my friend!
Well done, Felix!
Thank you!
Very slick idea.
Thank you Larry!
That is super, thanks Felix
Thanks for your compliment!
Great modification Felix !
Left handed people must be so happy rn !! LoL
The music though 😖urrrgh
Thank you!
Danke Felix, Nice to see you! t's been a while!
Thank you Michael!
Excellent idea. Great job!👍👍
Thanks a lot Peter!
Exelente trabajo
Yes!!! Being unable to open the blade with gloved hand always causes me problems, especially under the cold weather. Victorinox should learn you!!!
👍👍👍👍👍Very nice work and original idea. I enjoyed your video. Keep up good work!👏👏👏👏👏
Nice!
Thank you.
Brilliant as usual. Thank you
Good work, thank you.
Great video Felix - never thought of that. NICE!!!!
Best Gray
Thank you!
Awesome idea and great work.
Thanks again Felix!
Very welcome!
Original y funcional. Gracias 👍😁
Gracias!
This is exactly what I was missing. Great again...
Thanks a lot Martin!!
Awesome. Nice modification. I like they way you use what is commonly available to make what you want.
I enjoyed the first song too 😉
😍😍😍 Wunderbar und fabelhaft, herr Immler! That makes so much difference! I bought an old blunt SAK to practice modifications, before I ruin my Champ or Outrider... This video I will watch mor often before I try. Great teacher, you, as always.
herzlichen Dank!!
what a good MOD. my friend!!!!!
Thank you Ruben!
The Tony Stark of SAKs right here folks. Brilliant
😂😂😂 Thank you
Wow, fantastic Felix, really cool.
Thank you very much!!
Super clever. Love the use of drill & grinder together. But a serious Mod.
Thanks a lot!!
Excelente modificación ❤❤
Thank you very much!
Awesome idea! Although I do have to say I much prefer the videos where you talk us through it instead of having music in the background. Keep up the great work!
Very nice workmanship! 😎👍🏻
Best SAK-mod ever!
Thank you Runar!
Great idea! Very creative.
lovely work man , truly
Nice mod for left-handed people and I like that you done it so precisely. If you are right-handed then I don’t see the point in having a one-hand-opening knife that is designed for left-opening.
love it!! great for people who struggle with the fingernail slot
Thanks a lot for your feedback!
This is pretty impressive! Well done, man. Love your channel! Subscribed!
Thanks a lot for your support!
Very nice modification Felix, hand made makes it unique 👍👍👍

Gostei. Bom trabalho.

Your videos soothe an aching mind, brother. ❤
Muy buen trabajo, y queda prolijo y es práctico, tendría Victorinox aplicarlo en sus modelos, incluso en las de 111 mm. De nuevo te felicito, y saludos desde 🇦🇷
