I recognise that bladed and sharply pointed hand-tools, ie. saws etc. are important in demonstrating Bushcraft, Survival Skills in a safe designated area or when reviewing or comparing which is best suited for the task and why, whether 'in the field' or online.
I promote the safe use of knives used as a tool reiterating UK Law.
Code of Conduct:
Always read the manufacturers instructions & guidelines before using any tool.
It is always 'good practice', to use SOP's - 'Safe Operating Procedures' when using any tool. Please practice, safe & responsible knife/tool ownership, in accordance with any local laws.
Always try to be mindful - a good knife user needs to be proactive, polite and dignified when using a knife in view of others. Avoid un-necessary flourishing movements or anything that might be mis-perceived as brandishing or be seen in a threating manner.
I hold no responsibility from injuries that have occurred as a result of using this resource. Whenever a Knife/Saw/Tool is to be used in an activity, it is good practice to risk assess, understand the nature of the material being cut etc. and use common sense to help prevent injury or loss of life.
In case of accidents, always ensure you have a First Aid kit on your person or in a designated area - vehicle, campsite etc. and that you know how to use it!

UK knife law allows you to carry non-locking pocket knives with a blade length up to 3 inches (7.62 cm) without any need for a valid reason.

Great 😊 honest and in my opinion accurate review of one of the classic saks . By now I think victorinox know exactly how to make a knife. Quality value functionality high end product. Can’t remember ever not owning a few saks . Recently bought this model and the sports man , both great 👍🏻. But I wish they would put scissors on one or both of these models to make them perfect for me. Fantastic work Gus , thanks for your efforts 👍🏻😎😊
Exactly, I was meant to mention what I'd like to do to upgrade it further:
I would keep the two springs and have the scissors ✂️ on one and the main blade with the combo tool, as in the Bantam on the other spring...
I reckon they could also push the envelope out a little, with a possible Alox 84mm 3x spring - sporting a 3D in line Pozi/Phillips with a shallow cut out on the side of the scale to fit it in
+ I would also embed a tapered 'pry bar end.
Always appreciate great feedback Marc 👌
Thanks for watching buddy,
Atb Gus 👍
@@gadgetgus that would be perfect 👍🏻. I suppose we are a bit spoiled for choice, but I can never quite get the exact tool configuration I want lol 😂 why are we never happy? , although I must say the field master and the farmer x are very good for my own preference 👍🏻😎
Love an ALOX SAK! Always a joy to get a new one. 👍🤩
I second that John, appreciate you making the time to comment 🍺
Thanks for watching buddy,
Atb Gus 👍
Thanks for the tag in the description! I really liked this review and hope you enjoy the knife!
It's a privilege to have you on-board, thanks for watching Mark,
Atb Gus 👍
This is a perfect suitpocket knife. Slim and elegant. A thing of beauty (like all alox knives).
Agreed... it's such a great EDC, for sure!
I would live a red version - very cool 👌
Thanks for stopping by buddy,
Atb Gus👍
Excellent, spot-on review of a classic, wonderfully efficient workhorse. I thoroughly enjoyed your enthusiasm for all things (1) Victorinox and (2) Alox, so you've obtained a new subscriber. Thanks for the great review, and keep up the great work.
P.S. - I just ordered another one of the Cadet in Red Alox, as well as an Electrician (which, like the Bantam, doesn't have the key ring - of which I share your mild annoyance).
Cheers 🍻 buddy, welcome aboard!
I really appreciate you saying so... that means a lot 🙏
I would to get a Red Cadet, for sure.
I love your picture of the landscape 👌
Glad you enjoyed the videos and for stopping by,
All the best, Gus 👍
Love the Alox I have a few but do'nt have the Cadet yet, looks great awesome review Thanks buddy 👍
Appreciate your positive feedback 🙏 buddy 🍺
350/400 Double GAW coming soon, just been super busy at work - hold tight! 😉
Thanks for watching,
Atb Gus 👍
First thing I did when I received it in the mail was filing off the keyring. Slick in the pocket. The new file I reckon is better use than the predecessor.
Usual cool review Gus 😄
Hey Robert 💪
Thanks, I appreciate the kind words, buddy 🍻
This is another one I rotate at the weekend, when I don't need scissors...
Glad you enjoyed it,
Atb Gus 👍
Great review, as always, Gus. I own one of these too and have been gifting this model recently because it such a classy design and should last for years.
Question, aside from the tiny Classic (a key ring tool really), which gets the most pocket time for you?
The Cadet & the Electrician 👌
I enjoy all of the Alox range and EDC them most days, tailored to suit my day/weekend.
They are some of my most popular carries and I may actually custom build my own one day...
- ie. 2 spring 84mm frame with knife & combo tool in one spring and a scissors in the other + an embedded pry bar/scraper/Screwdriver!
A 3 spring would have all of the above + the a pozi/Phillips shallow 3D driver, with a slight 'cut out' on the side if the frame... just an idea 😁
Thanks for your positive feedback, much appreciated Phil and glad you enjoyed the video buddy,
Atb Gus 👍
Would you say the Cadet or the Pioneer? As the only one SAK for example?
Hi buddy 👊
As I've got size XL hands, I find the Pioneer is better suited to me and has a stronger blade & backspring.
However, for everyday carry, the Cadet is more acceptable in an urban environment.
Hope that helps & thanks for watching,
Atb Gus 👍
Great video about a real classic!
Cheers buddy 🍺
Much appreciate good will 🙏
Atb Gus 👍
I like the alox. I need a cadet. Great video 👍
Thanks for your kind words 🍺
It really does make a great EDC 👌
Thanks for watching,
All the best, Gus 👍
Another great "simple dimple" video Gus.Did you spot what I did there!!!!!
Very good Tony! 😁
Thanks, appreciate the fun feedback buddy...
Thanks for watching,
Atb Gus 👍
Cheers for the video.
Hi Tobias, thank you buddy 🍺
What type of knife do you prefer - traditional or modern?
Atb Gus 👍
Nice knife x Same brand as mine 👍Love the texture on this one though xxx
Hi K,
Agreed, gorgeous texturing... 👌
Thanks for watching,
Atb Gus 👍
Thanks for replying!!
Love my cadet, wish they did a Cadet X with scissors though
Yes... agreed, a few others and myself have suggested the same or a similar set up, especially for a urban environment - maybe one day!
I have see a few people who have modded there Cadet, tk do this...
I appreciate your valued feedback and for watching buddy,
Atb Gus 👍
Me too, this one with a scissors would be the perfect SAK for me!
@@gadgetgus thanks for the great content! I just need to get my hands on some 84mm scissors, which is unlikely. I may try modifying some 91mm to fit but I'd still need an old scissors back spring... One day
I love the bantam too but its so small and light it disappears, I have lost 3 of them.
I feel your pain, mine fell out in car (alox) 😢
How would you rate this vs the electrician?
Hey buddy,
For me, the SAK Electrician is a robust knife with practical tools for everyday & great value 👌 for the toolbox 🧰 or car 🚗
The Bantam & Cadet both make for ultralight EDC's with good, essential tools...
Thanks for watching, and I appreciate your feedback,
Atb Gus 👍
The only issue is that if they put the combination tool on there instead of the separate bottle opener and can opener, they would have space for another tool. Maybe a pair of scissors?
Exactly... I have contacted Victorinox, some months ago to suggest a few ideas 💡 including that - it would probably be their No.1 seller or in the top five, for sure!
Thanks for stopping by and really appreciate your valued feedback 👌
Atb Gus 👍
Happy Friday Gus, I personally prefer the older style nail file with stippling rather than the post 2018 crosscut style nail file & FYI all post 2018 84mm Cadets & 84mm Sportsman now have the new style nail file. As a rule I no longer carry a Cadet as part of my EDC rotation as I don't live in the UK ( I am a native Londoner ) & there being no knife blade size or locking mechanism restrictions where I live in Israel, so I am often carrying 111mm SAK's such as the slide lock Picnicker or the 111mm liner lock Garant , rotating them with my 91mm Climbers & Huntsman with various Civivi flipper knives or traditional lock blade knives like the Buck 110 & 112 . I still have 2 Cadets, a black pre-2018 one & the 2020 Limited edition Aqua blue one, both are in mint condition & my well used other black, red & silver ones ( all pre-2018 models ) I gave away to work colleagues before I retired .
On reflection... deep down, I agree - the 'stippled' one is better, as its less course & more refined, but costs more to produce.
If they kept the 45° leading edge on the file, rather than the 90° that would have been something.
Always appreciate your insightful & valued feedback 👌
Shabbat Shalom Steve 🍷

Wishing you & your family a wonderful weekend 😎🍺
I love the Alox series, just wish they would do an Alox Tinker
Absolutely... that would be cool 😎
I may have mod one in the future! 😁
I use most of them, especially the Electrican, Cadet & Bantam - great EDC's 👌
Thanks for watching,
Atb Gus 👍
This one with a scissors would be the perfect SAK for me!
Totally... the Cadet X, would be a very popular EDC, for sure!
Thanks for stopping by,
Atb Gus 👍
I agree, that is a five star knife.
Thanks for your support Frank, much appreciated 🍺
