Now that's nice! Please do more 130mm mods! I wonder if the Ranger Grip could be equipped with standard scissors. That would make it the perfect Victorinox knife IMO.
If you ever decide to do another Wine Master conversion like this, I would be interested! I work wine festivals for a Virginia winery in my area (North Mountain Winery) and would LOVE to have this on hand when I am behind the table!
Another vote for more 130 or 111mm projects. These Wenger models (I know it's Victorinox, but it's a line made from Wenger Ranger Grips after Victorinox purchased Wenger) were awesome. I like the ones with needle nose pliers like Ranger 74 Grip. My dream knife is Wenger RangerGrip 95 - Rescue II. These were made only 500 for Bulgarian rescue forces. They had everything. I'd like to see you make custom made one with the same tools that RangeGrip 95. Anyway - I love your channel and wish you well!
I will be making a 111mm Spydernox here in the upcoming month. I will be using the Spyderco Delica 4. This will be my first 111mm Spydernox. Building a remake Rangergrip 95 would be exciting.
Beautiful! I love my Winemaster much more than I ever expected to, but I noticed immediately how much it was just screaming for this mod. BTW, I've found that a hair dryer works wonders when removing the wood scales
I always wondered if adding scissors to a Ranger Grip 55 ( or Ranger Wood ) might be possible. As a bushcrafter I don't need the bottle opener or the can opener all that much, but scissors would be really nice. So maybe that layer could be modified.
I've done a Ranger 55 mod to remove the opener layer altogether, and swapped out the corkscrew for the awl. Makes a really nice bushcraft knife: just blade, saw and awl.
Only the best from the best. Great journey mate, you make it look so simple. One of our colleague have been in the Hospitality for decades and has his own modified wine opener or rather a "waiter's friend". Besides making alteration, magnets is in use. Great little gadget but it hasn't a knife. A dedicated knife {Honey Badger) is carried in a modified sheath along with the waiter's friend. We get great ideas from watching your shows. Cheers from Australia.
Beautifully done! I'd love to see a version of the winemaster with acid etched tools and perhaps custom scales (if they even exist). Anyways great work. I enjoy every of your videos.
Foil-Cutter: used to get the paper-wraps around the more expensive wine-bottles (sealing the cork) off (waiters cut them, bc the "rip off-thing" tends to fail its job); it is also used to pull the lable off the bottle (you can see wine-collectors asking for the lable if they drank a wine they don't have in their colelction yet) Also: nice work :) what is the source-knife for the onehanded-blade?
neither do i, but my dad collected wine - and so it came i've seen the waiter in action many times thanks for the RG61-link :) (too bad - no woodsaw, kinda need that thing often; so i guess i'll have to swap scales on the RG78 then... (i want that thing in army green ;)
I've used 58mm tools before in place of the back tools. So, it could be possible. Not sure of replacing the corkscrew would look well aesthetically though.
I wish you could find custom scale that size of 130mm because there's nothing out there.. that's what I looking for! There's a ranger grip lite from victorinox that has white handles scales and a Damascus blade, it's a very pricey s.a.k almost 600 bucks!! but I love the white micarta handle scales I just wish they were in a different color
There are a couple of options for custom scales. But just a couple of options: carbon fiber, wood, and plastic. But definitely none specifically for the wine master.
@@FittoSurvive I don't have the wine master, I carry my ranger grip 55 and that's the one I mentioned about the white handle scales made with micarta. I've seen some carbon fiber scales though but not much of anything else
I am not sure why there is so much enthusiasm with the cork screw s . I am not a wine drinker but probably the European guys are. What I would like to see if you could somehow show is to replace the cork screw with that of a Philips screw driver found in my beloved the yellow Evolution S17. I like and collect Victronox stuff but my most favorite one is the E S 17. I wish they did that to many Victronox ones. Is there a way to buy that screw driver and replace the cork screw s. Thanks.
Yeah, the typical corkscrew can at least carry some small tools in them. But this large corkscrew can only be used to open wine... So, it really isn't useful for people like me or apparently you since we do not drink wine. The philips screwdriver can not usually be purchased separately. Sometimes you can find loose parts on Ebay.
I am not sure if the blades would be interchangeable between the slide lock and liner lock. It's a good question though. I need to get more into the 111mm and 130mm.
Hi, would be possible to replace the brass rods with stainless steel screws? Would the screws provide additional structural strength in comparison with the brass rods? I try to find ways to make my 91mm and 130mm models stronger
Unable to order on Website...?? How to access??? Example: can I order Phillips extended screwdriver, small blade nail file, roadie blade, scissors, serrated SAK blade, box cutter tool, hook, corkscrew, awl, plus scales (forest green?), bottle opener, (replacing: can opener, small blade). Maybe use Companion or explorer as template. Any advice greatly appreciated.

👍Respect. Recently, I came across an interesting review of a knife manufacturer (on the manufacturer's unfair practices, i.e. on the problem of tempering the metal. The magnacut scandal posted by. SURVIVE! The topic is interesting because there is a chance that it is due to an aesthetic error, which is probably not compromised by God knows how many products This also raises the question of what happened or what will happen to these blades, will they be resharpened into new models or will they be re-released for sale after some time as they are only repainted or disguised in some other way. Is this a problem only with Magnacut? I don't think so.
Good point. That may have worked. I have tried that before on the 91mm SAKs, but it is such a pain trying to fit a pin through the knife while it is under tension.

Please make more 130mm projects, these are so cool!
Ok, I'll try to get more done. 👍🏻👍🏻 Next time I need to add a Spyderco to it. 😁
@Fittosurvive: I was thinking this Wine Master would be SUPER BadA if it had a SpyderCo blade!
@@lordfairfaxpreparedness Yes, definitely!

Thanks. I would if I could switch them if I could buy them. May be with ur hehp
@@bijanshahidi3933 It's not too difficult. Hardest part for an amateur would be peening it back together.
Is there any shop where I can buy those pins, rivets, caps for my Ranger grip?
@@alenmorandl5104 I've seen pins and rivets for every size except the 111mm and 130mm...
I'd like to make a one-hand hercules or outrider. is the liner lock blade interchangeable with the slide lock blade or no?
I am not sure if the blades would be interchangeable between the slide lock and liner lock. It's a good question though. I need to get more into the 111mm and 130mm.
I decided to combine a locksmith (liner lock version) with scissors and the long small phillips from the hercules. that should work. @@FittoSurvive

You could have swapped the blades by just removing the blade pin, you didn't have to take the hole knife apart, why didn't you do that?
Good point. That may have worked. I have tried that before on the 91mm SAKs, but it is such a pain trying to fit a pin through the knife while it is under tension.
@@FittoSurvive filing the new pin to a sharp point really helps. It forces the new blade into alignment
@@MrLordMonkey Thanks.
