Just arrived from amazon, a silver Victorinox Alox Electrician. For a reason, i confused whether i got the right one. In my memory, it should have a keyring. To clear my doubt, i googled picture of it. I was wrong...
For instant, i like the slick thin shape, i like Alox ! I was (again) thinking that the alox is just a thin aluminum cover enclosed over the outer liner. I (again) was totally wrong. The Alox indeed a thick solid aluminum layer (1-2mm) sit next to outer liners. It bring new experience about Victorinox. I'd like to have an alox version of Vic Super Tinker, if possible, now i can say i hate cellidor !
Regarding the Electrician it self, the blade longer (few mm) and thicker than normal Cellidor one, the awl was sharp and ouch, it cut my finger skin as i learn to close it, the electrician blade, is a v shaped blade ( i read somewhere that it has one side sharpening..again i was wrong) with one side sharpened on the curve cable cutter area. it is big/wide to my standard, but it is short and controllable more than the bigger brother. I like it, still enjoying the sharpness out of the box, once i bored, i will start to cut cables to see how it perform.
Overall, i like it very much. what came to my mind :
- do i need a pouch? it so light and almost disappears in my pocket. i don't want to loose it.
- thickness of the Farmer model, i may get aloxicated soon.
- customize it with just small sheepfoot blade, + phillip screw driver on spartan lite model?
- add serration to the bigger knife.
i will test it several day, hopefully it works great on my normal application. fyi, I just win alox executive of ebay. alox virus spreading faster than i tought.
