You are the ultimate Victorinox legend Felix! I just used your method to change the scales on my victorinox handyman to the plus scales with the pen, and I was able to remove the old scales with absolutely no damage! Thank you!!! I love these workshops!

Invaluable help. I solved a problem with no fuss thanks to this video. My 4y son messed around with my knives, and managed to insert a pair of Leatherman tweezers from his Style PS into my SAK slot. They are smaller than victorinox tweezers so they fell deep in and were impossible to take out. Thanks to this video i managed to unlock only one rivet (the one closer to the tweezers slot), take the Leatherman tweezers out and click the rivet back in. Opening one rivet only allowed me to have my sak back with the scales holding fast as new. Thanks Felix

So after watching a number of Felix videos I went our and bought a huntsman. Didn't realise it came without pen etc. Watched vids, did mod, chuffed. Now fathers day has just passed in UK and I now own 3 SAK (champ, huntsman and compact). 1 for backpack, 1 for jkt and one for EDC! What a lucky chap I am! Felix keep them coming. Your enthusiasm is catching.

I just happened upon this video in my feed. It couldn’t have come at a more opportune moment. Just yesterday I had a look at my wife’s white SAK which I gifted to her 30+ years ago. The scales are all discolored from sitting in her various handbags with cosmetics over the years. My intention was to clean them up with 1500 & 2200 wet/dry sand paper then polish them. This will make the process much easier! Thank you!

Great to have you back Felix! When replacing the scales on a knife with a corkscrew, open it out before putting the knife in the vice. The corkscrew stands slightly proud of the scales, that way you get even pressure.

Thank you for this really useful guideline. I did that with ruby plus scales for my deluxe tinker. But instead of using a vice for reassembly, I soaked the new scales in the hot water, too!. Then, after quickly drying them, I could mount them by just laying the preassembled knive and scaless on the desktop between two paper towels and pressed from above like reanimating...worked with little pressure like a charm. No gap, no scratches, no danger of applying to much pressure.

He’s back! It’s always nice to start the weekend with your video. The hot water is a good tip. For putting the scales back on, you can also use a bit of wood between the vise and the knife to even out the pressure. Or just push down on it with your hands on a flat surface..

Many thanks for this video Felix. My dads old MOUNTAINEER SAK had a broken red scale and had no tweezers or toothpick- after watching your video I ordered a new set of scales from eBay but the Silvertech ones and a set of toothpick and tweezers in a red colour. The new scale has the hole for the pin. The old red scales didn’t. I now have a refurbished SAK to replace my own Climber knife that was recently confiscated at an airport

By the way, there is a much easier way to remove scales without damaging them, and subjecting them to water submersion. Take 2 rice bags (used for heat application), place in the microwave for about 30-45 seconds to get good an warm (40-50C). Place one on a counter, the knife in the middle of it, and place the other bag on top. Let sit 5-10 minutes and then remove like in the video. Almost zero plastic is removed and much simpler (to me at least).

That certainly simplifies the process in removing the need to clean out all the water from the tiny spaces inside the knife AND eliminating the need to relube the pivots!

I suppose you could also use a ziplock bag to submerge the knife without getting it wet, if you didn't want to go and buy those heat bags.

Hello Felix! I had a Swiss Champ that had Plus scales, and a Huntsman that did not. I swapped the non-Plus scales over to the SChamp, and then sent it in for maintenance to Victorinox. I asked them to replace the scales for Plus scales, which they did. I now have Plus scales on my Huntsman and SChamp. :) The Plus Scales are about $16 on eBay, but they were about $3 for Victorinox to replace them. Cheers!

@@name5949 Happy new year mate!! Indeed the alox scales transform the SAK into a much tougher and premium EDC knife. It looks so damn cool too!! There's a new version called the "Farmer X Alox" with the addition of scissors which can be very handy just like the "Fieldmaster". Been EDC the "Farmer Alox" for more than 3 or 4 years now and its still my favourite knife of them all. Plus the reamer/punch of the Alox models are much better and its location on the SAK makes it so useful. Just go for it mate and you will love it to bits!! I would love to hear what you think of it when you have your new knife!! Cheers

Thank you Felix! Just recently bought your book Whittling in The Wild, and changed out the scales to plus today! It was as easy to do as the instructions in this video! I was lazy and failed to check the temperature in the water, so if the old scales are warped, that' my fault lol. Thanks again for the easy to follow steps as always :)

This trick is great. I've seen too much cracky SAKs to do the same to mine, so I was thinking if it's a good idea to heat it up with hand warmers (they are about 50°). Anyways, great video and the yellow scales look really nice. Greetings 🇵🇱!
