    The Farmer X is the most complete SAX for the size it is. It is a realistic and usable knife without the bulk you get with any celidor variant with the same amount of tools. The alw/reamer/punch is in itself a multitool.

      No, that would be the Ranger, or even the Fieldmaster or Huntsman.

    I have the Pioneer X and the Compact. The Compact has to be the best EDC urban carry around. I chose the Pioneer X over the Farmer X because I didn't fancy the extra weight of the saw. I wouldn't use it enough. But I can see for someone more outdoors than me would love it.

    Hey Matt,
    Love this one, I’ve got the Farmer but the addition of the scissors is great.
    Big fan of the Alox, just a bit more robust feel.
    Love the custom compact, Dan’s work is stunning.
    Think the Farmer X is a fantastic edc option.
    On a side note, are you ready for the Sharp Show? We’ve got tickets and accommodation sorted and looking forward to going. 😀

    I find it counter-intuitive that the nail nick on these scissors appears on the wrong side. On the 'usual ' side, it would still be perfectly accessible, making it in line with most other SAKs.

    Hi from Calgary Alberta. I agree completely that Farmer X Alox is near perfect. I do however compliment it in my Alpaka Hub pouch with Knipex Cobra XS 4” pliers, a Gerber Dime (for needle nose pliers, tweezers and a small precision blade), a Zebra mini telescoping ballpoint pen and a NiteCore Tini2 500 lumen torch. For me, I now feel I’ve completed my EDC.

    Great reviews! Another star knife. I love the pioneer range. Just for clarity: you said the blade length was 3 and 3/4 inch. I know you meant 2 and 3/4. I only mention this because it matters legally in the uk. This definitely is a legal knife and I’m sure most people realise that. Thanks again. Great knife. 👍

    I ended up going with a Hiker instead of a Farmer as my first Victorinox (as much as I liked how the farmer felt). The proper Philips screwdriver is what swung it - it’s a lot less likely to damage the screw head, and will easily reach any recessed screws compared to the one on the tip of the Farmer. Perhaps using the combo tool from the Bantam to replace both the can & bottle opener would free up space for a screwdriver 🤔
