Some superb pick-ups from all! ::tu::

My new SAKs arrived yesterday. Green is likely my favorite of the more readily available colors other than silver.

No matter the color nor pattern, I'm just an Alox guy. Love those Bantams.

It took a few minutes to dawn on me that you were likely referring to the Michigan State Spartans. Though the rivalry between Michigan State and University of Michigan fans can be amusing, my interest in collegiate athletics is pretty much nil. When I hear "Spartan," I think Victorinox. I am indeed a Victorinox Spartan fan.

Thanks, Mark! You're correct in that I can't see you toting one of those Bantams around. Victorinox has a few models with 111mm and 130mm frames that might be a little more your type.

It certainly is a small world Dan since it was just yesterday I clicked-on an ad for SAK's and it took me to the Victorinox website, and when the knives came up there were a couple in different colors that looked like any ordinary 1-blade folder and I was immediately impressed cuz they were very cool. I once told myself I'd never own a Vic, but I can see that changing! 8)

I sure appreciate everyone's nice comments.
In spite of the blade wear it is a nice little knife, but it is a Wostenholm. 8)
