That's very close to my ideal toolset. Inline awl or reamer would be excellent. I've got that on my swiss tool, at least, but that's too heavy for a pocket carry. Great job
I’m such a huge fan recently of the Victorinox Swiss knives. Something about them brings me back to my childhood and now that I’m an adult I’m just buying as many as I can. I’ve always had one but have always had a bunch of knives. But just recently, idk what happened but I thought to myself “why don’t I have more of these”. Then I see you guys custom building them and getting custom scales making them one of a kind. I’m gonna do it. I’m gonna build one, one for me. That no one else has. Something unique that fits me and my needs. I always carry a Leatherman Wave Plus but something about these Victorinox that can’t be replaced.
I am in complete awe of what I just witnessed. First time watching your channel. This video has been on my ‘watch later’ list for some time, can’t remember when I added it or why I added it but this was not what expected. It completely blew me away, is this what you do on your channel make awesome custom built multitools?! This is truly an art and a skill. I didn’t even know this was possible or even a thing and I’ve been into edc for some years now. I very much enjoyed watching this video and again can’t believe that custom personal builds are possible like this. Needless to say video liked and channel subscribed!
I have oodles of tools and similar skills to yours. I'll be honest this kind of project id never even thought of. I hope you make a fortune with this for anniversary gifts etc. Thanks for making this vid. Thumbs up
Immediately I scanned the market for the 84mm parts too. But they are scarce and they are very expensive. But the idea of 3 layers in 84mm instead of 2 layers in 91mm is great.
Very nice! It is so satisfying to see such a project start from a concept & develop through your usual impeccable work into a beautiful piece...I feel somewhat like the midwife's assistant in a very small way...Thanks!
This is the issue I was looking at, I like the pruning blade but getting it with the scissors and the hook is not on the factory menu, especially with the couple other tools I find I use regularly. Someone pointed me to this channel and I know it’s doable now. I’d honestly love this set up just with the can opener, bottle opener instead of the reamer and just different colour scales. I dream big
Glad you like it! Sometimes I think the editing work is more difficult than the modding. 😂 Probably because I enjoy modding knives and I do not enjoy video editing... 😝
Beautiful work and a nice set of tools. There must be a form available somewhere to give the rivets a nice domed finish, certainly back in the day I'm sure they would have been fairly common, I remember using them when I went to tech college. To be fair though you've made a very nice job of peening them over with a hammer. Your customer should be really happy with that custom build.
Thank you! Yeah, there's definitely got to be an easier way to peen. I know that Victorinox has a machine, but I'd never be able to get my hands on one. 😅
Looks amazing! I’m hoping to put some Alex scales on my modified waiter from a bantam. Do you know if this will be possible? Obviously a spot will have to be cut for the back tool… planning on changing the corkscrew on the waiter to a Phillips from a tinker
Happy Saturday Maestro FtS, thanks for the new video. That is great tool set combo! If I was ever in the market for such a modification I would have chosen the 93mm size frame for a two layer Alox SAK with the blade paired with the combo tool & the regular scissors & for the 84mm frame a two layer Alox SAK with the blade paired with the combo tool & the scissors from the 74mm Ambassador over the 85mm Wenger stye scissors. ATB Steve
Hello Steve! Glad to hear that. Sounds like an interesting and slim toolset. Not sure if the 74mm scissors would fit on an 84mm, but I am interested in trying it out. 👍🏻😎
@@FittoSurvive Happy Monday FtS, My selecting the 74mm scissors is just theoretical & it might not be practical if it won't work with the backspring on an 84mm sized frame, in which case a modified 85mm Wenger style scissors will be the way to go. Basically I am thinking along the lines of an Alox version of the 91mm Compact. Have a great day, ATB Steve.
Yes, this is due to the tension from the scissors and lack of tension from the spacers opposite the scissors. I am working on have a special spring made, replicating the original/discontinued 84mm scissor spring.
I use a cobalt drill bits. Usually I have to order them from overseas (via Ebay) because it is difficult to find small metric sizes without ordering an entire set. The drill bit needed for the 84mm frame is the 2.2mm. And that is not a common size.
Thanks. 😅 The electrians are the same size and the pivot holes are the same size. But on some tools (like the XLT) The Electrician and Pruner blades have been bent to be able to be placed opposite each other.
I always wanted alox bantam X, it doenst feel right to put wanger scissors there, but i just realised... is it possieble to make bantom x, from pionier x, put combi tool there instead of awl and take entire opener layer out? (or combi tool is too thin for this build?) secound idea is to just swap awl for electrician blade on a pioneer x on the knife layer, that seems more usefull in urban office setting
Another fantastic build! Amazing👏 Quick question.. is the knife blade on the alox bantam(84mm) identical to the standard 84mm main blade? Or is it also thicker like in the 91mm standard vs alox version?
Congratulations very nice work, it's beautiful 😍. What diameter do you use for the axes? Did you drill the new tools with a larger diameter? Thank you. I just subscribed to your channel 😃
IMO The real problem about scissors is to mount Victorinox larger scissors (those mounted on FARMER X? or on Swisstool X? Actually the best performing scissors around) on a RUIKE LD42-B in which scissors are a little weak for an otherwise very sturdy and effective Knife. Another thing to develop further about victorinox is the possibility to avoid fix rivets in favor of dis-mountable screws so the knife can be cleaned in depth, can be reconfigured over time...
I've never used the Ruike before. I might look into that some day. Assembling the SAK with torx screws will really be an awesome improvement, I do have plan to make a special build like that in the future.
That’s funny, I recently went back to carrying my first cadet (and first SAK at that)… and I missed it but it’s missing scissors, so I bought a couple more and took them apart, got Wigner style scissors as well as it’s an 84mm like you said. Basically this has been on my mind as well, got a “beater” cadet now that I take apart and add or mod parts for, I’ll post it in one of the groups you’re in sometime later. Awesome work brother!
@@FittoSurvive out of curiosity where do you get the little round spacers from? I’d love to not break open a few more SAKs than I have to for those… if possible.
@@antonsimanov The washers that I used were left over from making Dragonox Cadets. The Dragonfly does not need the washer like the original blade does. I imagine that a similar size/thickness could be ordered though.
@@FittoSurvive I’ll have a look around, do you have a favorite place you like to look for parts or just anywhere? Now to size the washers, hopefully they’re not a special size but that’d be too east 😂

@@FittoSurvive Wouldn't that be the Electrician Plus? 93mm?.... Victorinox has had some really nice models that they discontinued... My favorite would be a 93mm 2 layer Lumberjack with an added electrician sheep foot... Main Blade Saw blade Combo tool and a Sheep's foot...
I typically do not modify the 3mm pivot bores, there's not any issues in action and closing. Trying to peen them in and re-drilling them out to 2.2mm is unnecessary.
Great build, and very informative video. Thank you! One question: was there a reason why you put the key ring spacer closer to the scales? If you need two spacers there next to each other, I would imagine that the key ring would be better positioned a bit more towards the middle of the knife. Or would that be too close to the pruner blade?
Thanks a bunch! Glad to hear that. Yes, I try to keep the key ring spacer as far away from the tool next to it. If you get it too close, then there is a good chance that it could get in the way.
Wenger scissors are the best anyway. The tiny teeth make them fantastic for moustache & fishing line duty 😆 Love the electrician blade. It's so soothing watching you work, you always choose relaxing music too 👍
I like the toothed scissors as well. They are super sharp. Awesome! Glad to hear that you enjoy watching the build process and my choice for the background music. I try to keep it low key.
Is it possible to add the locking blade from one of the evolution series and use the dragonfly 2 blade, or run 2 locks for a scalpel and dragonfly 2 blade. If you could have 2 locking blades scissors, parcel hook and the bit driver I think it would make a hell of an bird and trout knife or a companion to a solid fixed blade for hunting. Maybe even throw the pliers on😮. If it’s at all possible.
I am still working on getting a locking blade to work. But havent had any successful experiments yet. The Evo locking blade has to use the Evo tool spring which is not compatible with the 84mm. Maybe the liner lock from a 111mm SAK will work though. I'll post a video once I get it worked out.
If I were to make my perfect do it all tool, I would not sacrifice any of the screw drivers. I would make a 5 layer knife with awl, main blade, wood saw, file, pruner blade, electrician blade, can opener, cap lifter.
i personally think the swiss army knives are boring and strictly utilitarian, so i think what your doing is awesome, giving a new spin on a mundane tool and breathing new life for such a reliable and iconic knife
@@FittoSurvive I honestly was thinking of asking you about a build for myself. I was thinking green scales like micarta, denim or like Carhartt material, something grippy as long as I can get plus tool scales. Tweezer, Ferro rod in place of pick. A spyderco main blade, smaller secondary spyderco that's serrated karambit both 1 hand opening, and the main victorianox blade but serrated. Can opener, saw and the little pliers for grabbing hot stuff. An awl, corkscrew and philips at the back (the only tools I can think of for the back). Green g10 liners in place of aluminum if possible, if not, I really like brass. I really like the 111mm and 130mm sizes, the bigger the better. Lemme know what that would cost, ballpark. Canadian 👌🏽
Would you be interested in selling kits so I could try and build my own? It looks so therapeutic and fun, I’d love too try and make my old sak mechanic new again, and I’d love too make a rambler alox
@@FittoSurvive I have a Swiss army mechanic, it’s something discontinued and I’d love too freshen it up and give it a spyderco, also I’d love too make my own mechanic special, I love the pliers
The problem with you people is you cannot go beyond / or are limited to the world of branded products....be it SAK or Leatherman..! When you can develop a bit of DIY mentality and create such tools and shapes on your own with simple tools ...!
I'd love to be able to make my own multitool. But why reinvent the wheel when I can just make improvements to an existing knife? If you buy a new car and put bigger tires on it, would someone tell you "why don't you just build your own car"? Make sense? Not being confrontational, I just don't see the problem. 😄

I have thought about putting together kits for people to "build their own", but I haven't started that just yet.
@@FittoSurvive I have a Swiss army mechanic, it’s something discontinued and I’d love too freshen it up and give it a spyderco, also I’d love too make my own mechanic special, I love the pliers
@@davidbreitwieser3591 Nice. I'd need to get everything worked out. Maybe by Christmas time I'll be able to sell a limited amount of project kits.
Do you do custom knives for sale? How would I contact you?
I do accept custom orders. Check out my website for information on how to order one. www.f2scustoms.com

Thanks!
Пора на Клинок выстовляться!
Очень хотел в этом году съездить на Blade, но похоже не выйдет. Если только не устрою какой нибудь Gofundme. 😅
The problem with you people is you cannot go beyond / or are limited to the world of branded products....be it SAK or Leatherman..! When you can develop a bit of DIY mentality and create such tools and shapes on your own with simple tools ...!
I'd love to be able to make my own multitool. But why reinvent the wheel when I can just make improvements to an existing knife? If you buy a new car and put bigger tires on it, would someone tell you "why don't you just build your own car"? Make sense?
Not being confrontational, I just don't see the problem. 😄
Hi Cody
I am currently watching " how I made this custom SAK for Nutsac
