I call it the Machinist

I built this as a gift for my best friend who owns 2 manufacturing businesses; mostly machining parts of aluminum. After watching him run CNCs for a number of years I choose a toolset I thought would be useful for not only for everyday tasks but to also run a business, and while inside the shop operating manufacturing machinery… his favorite color is also blue. Pretty proud of this one, outa the few SAKs I’ve built this turned out to be the best one yet.

This is amazing. One day I'm going to get round to getting hold of the file off a Companion and swapping it with the small blade on my Climber to make my perfect knife.

I say go for it. I’ve been tossing around the idea of doing the exact same thing but I just use the pen blade too much to give it up.
