    • @ImaginaryEvil

      From Wiki - a serrated blade is a type of blade used on saws and on some knives or scissors. It is also known as a dentated, sawtooth, or toothed blade.

    • @manolomauriz7406
      @manolomauriz7406 2 роки тому +3

      Regardless of what Wiki says, it is misleading to refer to a saw blade as a serrated blade. In the knife and multi tool community, a SERRATED knife edge is for cutting, like a plain edge is, only it has a “scalloped” or “toothed” edge for cutting fibrous things like rope or cordage. Rescue knives use this type of edge for cutting through seatbelts. SAW blades have a very different double row edge of teeth made specifically for SAWING through wood, branches, etc. That is a saw blade. You cannot CUT fibrous materials with a SAW blade, just like trying to “saw” through a branch with a serrated cutting edge would take a long time… Hope this helps.

  • @miklospinter
    @miklospinter 4 роки тому +7

    I personally like the size and robustness of the Pioneer-size better. And the reamer.
    The Bantam is incredibly thin indeed, but I also find the combo tool too thin. When I have to pry, I'm not really worried about my Pioneer - I would be much more careful with a Bantam.

  • @miklospinter
    @miklospinter 4 роки тому +8

    The Bantam's combo tool is not only a bottle opener but a can opener, too. I think you didn't mention that.
    And there are quite a few colors out there, but some of them are not easy to find, and most have a shop logo of some kind because Vic requires it for many years now.

    The tip of the nail file on the cadet can also be used as a screwdriver works pretty well.

    Right now I have a red alox Cadet on my keys.. I saw that Knifecenter was offering a black alox Bantam and I was excited because I wanted to get a SAK with about the same blade length but substantially thinner on my keychain.. Bantam would have been perfect but no keyring unless I wanna get the plastic version.

    In the country I live, Bantam Alox is also very hard to find now even in its standard version (0.2300.26), and the 0.2301.26 version (Bantam Silver Alox with keyring) is impossible to find here.
    But I'm going to pick mine up today (standard silver), along with Pioneer. Don't really see the point in a Cadet when you have every nail related tool on a 58mm SwissLite on your keychain or Rambler in your small pocket...

    Sak’s aren’t a bad. I only have one, I actually like some of the custom ones made with titanium scales. I actually like the customs ones that people replace the blade with a Spyderco blade. I think that it makes it easier to get the blade out versus a finger nail stud to get the blade out.
