The parcel hook is a lifesaver if you're disabled. I have osteo and rheumatoid arthritides and my hand strength is just about nil. The hook is useful for opening tabbed cans. I also use mine to tie knots (and untie them) because my fingers just can't do it anymore. You should check out Felix Immler's video on uses for the hook.
Preheating the scales (with warm water) would help softening them, therefore it would be easier to install the new ones. Thanks for the video!
You're supposed to soak the knife in hot water for a few minutes to soften the plastic so the scales don't crack.
Good to know
Just don’t use boiling water, I know that from experience 😂
@@MichaelB2L That's true. And hot water dulls the edge of your knives. They should always be cleaned with cold water to preserve maximum edge retention
@@jackellock7113 Really really hot water may effect a blade’s sharpness. I was talking about victorinox scales specifically. If you leave them in boiling water for even a few minutes they will melt.
@@MichaelB2Lyep I needed to learn this the hard way too. But you can throw the scales in boiling water again for a couple of seconds and then press them flat unter a book or so. So I safes my transparent light blue scales 😀
I'm actually considering grinding my hook into a point so I can use it as an awl. An awl in place of the hook would make this tool perfect.
That’s the parcel hook. Has a few uses but it’s pretty crap apart from the file, so handy for that. The hook can be used to hold the pen for easy use and I’ve seen someone file the top of it where you clip it out
Into a little flat head. Would be great to swap out for the screwdriver on the 58mm. Enjoy paddy’s day!
Thanks for the heads up. I’ve seen people wedging the pen in but completely forgot. I’m going to have to change it for a Philips at some point. 🍀
@@MarcusCreates only other thing to note is that the parcel hook on the compact is unique, it has a small file on its spine. Personally I’d change out of the corkscrew for a Philips drive.
@@strikesbac what do you use the parcel hook for?
@@MarcusCreates not much, normally tighten boot laces. The file I use on my nails far more often.
You can add a 3 mm(I think it's 3 mm) magnet to the parcel hook t magnetise the pin to find Mag North ( floating on a leaf in a cup of water....Felix Immler trick, he's a SAK Legend. Right up there with MacGyver 👍🤣👍🤣
Apparently the wire bender works well with the ferrocerium rod to throw sparks but I do not have one to confirm this. The hook holds the pen in place so may be worth keeping since my handwriting is bad enough with normal writing instruments.🇨🇦
Thanks for the heads up
ZacInTheWild has a video on swapping the parcel hook for a Phillips.
Can you swap the corkscrew with a Phillips?
It seems like people dont like the hook very much, but personally i love it. I get the most use out of it from moving hot cups and pots on and off the campfire, usually when im boiling water or making coffee
its great for undoing tight knots
I ve added the fire tinder and steel but not thought about changing the scales . Thank you for the lesson.
That’s for the positive message. Hope it works out.
You should’ve opened up the 3rd scale hole (opposite end to the tweezers) for a short toothpick and second pinhole for a sewing needle!
Instructions are on Felix Immler’s channel.
That’s a great heads up. I had no idea. Will do.
the Compact would be perfect with a screwdriver or awl in place of the hook, which make nice self-defense weapons as well.
Thanks for your input
Typically i carry a Cybertool L.
I've made 1 cm markings on the file, using a pencil. The graphite persists quite well in the rough structure of the file and helps me to do rough measurements. It cannot replace a proper ruler or calipers, but helps to decide if there is a known discrete set of possible values.
Something like, "is this a 18mm, 20mm or 22mm bolt?" can be answered with those markings.
Near the base of the screwdriver of the Cybertool there is some empty space. There i keep a small neodymium magnet. On other models it can be fit into the corkscrew instead of the firestarter
Cool mods. I did buy a pocket clip for Swiss Army knives that screws onto the ring, works like a champ
I have a few of those but I prefer the deep carry I get with the keysmart.
Parcel hook good for hooking stuff from inaccessible spots occasionally. Less ironic - more appropriate to use SAK to pry red scales! See Alanis M for reference
Thanks 🙏
This one time, my sister came to me with a diy project and a string inside a bottle she really needed to get out. nothing helped, so I took my swisschamp and the hook, put it inside, and took out the string. Perfect.
Your Compact looks great! The back side Philips may look good they don't work very well. Did you know the corner of your combo tool works on Philips screws? Not perfect but it works. Years ago I came up with a better solution I made an inline 1/4 bit exchanger that fits on the combo tool made from a 1/4 inch square drive to a 1/4 inch hex bit adapter. I carry it in the bottom of my front pocket with a Philips bit in it. If you are interested in seeing it let me know It is an easy DIY project.
Got me a Compact and swapped in cobalt blue plus scales.
Don't know if it comes stock with cobalt scales, but looks cool to me and a nice change from the SAK red scales.
I do have some hunter green scales coming in for a Spartan scale swap too.
Ooo nice!
I didn’t even know you could do this! I just checked my knife, cos I was like “how did he have space for it?” And I found my knife has empty space for one! Wow 😮😳🤯
Thank you!!
Yep. They’re epic pocket knives. Glad you found it.
@@MarcusCreates I’ll be ordering some soon then!
Marcus my man! An absolute class video for the holiday.
I thank whatever higher power I can for the creation of the classic “Swiss Army knife” design.
Erin go bragh! ☘️
Happy St. Patrick’s Day Cain! Great little pocket knife and a fun video to put together.
@@MarcusCreates where did you get the green scales? which etsy shop?
Next time if you use a vice or g clamps with some timber youll find it goes together really asily
Keep the content coming, for a smaller channel awesome production. You’ve definitely given it some thought
Thanks! Will do!
Wow, that cool!
Thanks ☺️
Where did you get diferent color tweezers and tooth pick accessories please
Cheers from Oz🇦🇺👍
Neil
I ordered them on ETSY
Before removing it, soak the knife in 50c-60c warm water. This will leave the original cover undamaged and can be reused.
I was wondering how to get those scales off if I ever meed to ,
Thanks 👍
you forgot to mention it has a can opener on it too
Where did you get the little lanyard from?
Happy Birthday, Patrick.
😃
What's that one thing left on the table with a lanyard?
looking for some good future is bright orange scales to upgrade my faded green ones
Share a link on here if you find some good ones you recommend.
The irony of pulling a Swiss Army knife apart using a…Swiss Army Knife 😂😂😂
Is there anything they can’t do? 🤣
@@MarcusCreates swear down I love your videos. I’ve watched a lot and these are the best EDC tools ones.
Thanks Charlie. Appreciate the support.
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day Marcus. Great video as ever.
Same to you P!
Is there a source for individual parts?
If I where to change the scale I would look for something unique or have a different color each side
I thought about doing orange on one side and green on the other for the Irish flag but it would be too expensive to buy 3 sets of scales.
Where would I get the pin for splinters and the eyeglass screwdriver?
There is a link in the description but I just bought them on Amazon.
This looks soo cool! I didn't know that there's an option to change a casing of this thing
Can make a completely personalized knife.
@@MarcusCreates removing the red casing looks a struggle though, there might have some tricks on how to easily remove them😬
@@sidebysidegear3329some suggest sitting the knife in warm water helps a little to loosen up the scales for removal. Personally I wouldn't use knife blade to remove either. 👍
@@desmo5514 hotter than warm, but not quite boiling. Leave the knife in the hot water for 2 minutes. It softens the plastic and will stop the casing from cracking when prying it off.
If you live into boiled water for one minute you don't breack the clips in the cover!
Smart. Thanks for the heads up.
how can u make a hole with the compact?
Do you mean without an awl
Coloca na água entre 70 a 80 graus celsius, você vai tirar essas talas brincando, não passa de 70 graus celsius, por favor.
Ungeschickt,unscharf,minutenlanges auf und zugeklappe.Was sollen solcherlei Beiträge?Hätte mein 6jähriger Enkel besser gemacht.
Was sollen solche unnützen Sachen,die es schon hundertfach gibt?
