Lately I have really been into the small (58mm) SAKs but this week I picked up a slightly larger one; the tinker. Now I do like this as it feels a little more sturdy than the small knives as it is an intermediate sized knife. To me, this just feels like a traditional Swiss Army Knife.
There are two sizes of Tinker; the larger 91mm but this is the smaller 84mm. And here you can see it compared to my trusty Classic SD.
The tools are what you would expect from a Swiss Army Knife, but rather than a corkscrew, it has a fairly substantial screw driver. Lets face it, who has time to drink when there is screwing to be done.
Its basic but compact and useful enough, although I have never used the reamer for anything. I also rarely ever use a small knife blade and I am not sure why a second smaller blade is needed. But then I have also never used a SAK to open a bottle of wine with the corkscrew tool - I always have a larger corkscrew on hand.
