Aujourd'hui j'ai reçu un nouveau couteau suisse Victorinox (mon 12e), le Companion Slim Alox.
Décapsuleur avec tournevis 7 mn, denudeur de fil électrique, ciseaux, tournevis 3 mn et ouvre paquet.

Victorinox innove avec le couteau suisse sans couteau. L'intérêt est de ne plus être emmerdé par les flics, bien que la jurisprudence permette de porter sur soi un couteau suisse, c'est toujours à l'appréciation de la police et c'est arbitraire.

For the Fish River Canyon and Drakensberg trip I have my cooking setup settled and there are some luxury items.

- I am taking a Fozzils Snapbowl for when I need a bowl. Doubles as a cutting board. (https://www.fozzils.com/product-page/snapfold-bowlz). It fits nicely into the back stretch pocket of the backpack.

- A long handle spork.

- A Victorinox Soldier's knife. It has all the necessary utilities for emergencies. The made blade is serrated and sharp. I have used it in the past to even cut open tins. (https://www.amazon.es/-/en/Victorinox-Schweizer-Soldatenmesser-Functions-Including/dp/B002RWXZ7E)

- A spreading knife, because it works better than the pocket knife's big blade. It is my one luxury item.

- All the cutlery items go into a small Hilltop tent stake bag. I purposely bought the one with the meat print. (https://hilltoppacks.com/products/tent-stake-stuff-sacks-funny-prints?variant=38878721867961)

- MSR Pocket Rocket DLX. Slightly heavier than some other compact stoves, but it burns more efficiently, has a regulator and a piezo igniter. (https://cascadedesigns.com/en-eu/products/pocketrocket-deluxe-stove).

- Lightload Towel as a dish cloth. It is super lightweight, recycable and lasts for many days. (https://www.litesmith.com/lightload-towels/).

- MSR Titan 900ml kettle. (https://cascadedesigns.com/en-eu/products/titan-kettle-900ml)

- MSR Titan Double Wall mug 375 ml. It fits inside the kettle. (https://cascadedesigns.com/en-eu/products/titan-double-wall-mug).

- All the cookware goes inside a Hilltop stuff sack, including one gas canister. (https://hilltoppacks.com/products/stuff-sacks-w-custom-printing-challenge-d50t-fabric?variant=45960307114241)

- I have one large food bag from Hilltop (https://hilltoppacks.com/collections/food-bags-bear-bags/products/food-bags-w-custom-printing-challenge-d50t-fabric-bear-bag-5) as well as 2nd snack bag. At this point I might take another Hilltop bag instead of the Sea to Summit drybag for the latter purpose.

- As these hikes are in Southern Africa, a common practice is to eat rusks with morning coffee / tea. I keep these in a plastic container to prevent them from becoming crumbs.

- My second luxury item is a Platypus 800ml wine bag, because we like to sip some red wine in the evening. When it is empty it rolls up really small (https://cascadedesigns.com/en-eu/products/platy-preserve).

This whole setup is < 900g.

I did not include a emergency matches or a lighter in this list as that will go into the emergency and first aid bag.

おぉ、Victorinoxがモジュール式に、と思ったが少し違うか。外装のプラ部分を別のモジュールに取っ替え引っ替えできる様にしたものか。それでもワクワクするな。何もVictorinoxに付けなくとも別のを持つ方が良くないかとも思っても。

Wenn ich eine Firma nennen sollte, bei der der Service wirklich unglaublich gut ist, dann ist es Victorinox.

Bei meinem bald 35 Jahre alten Taschenmesser zerbröselte eine der Griffschalen.

Ich habe es zum Service eingeschickt. Dabei wurde nicht nur die Griffschale erneuert, sondern auch alles gereinigt, geschliffen, sowie Zahnstocher und Pinzette ausgetauscht.

Und das zum Preis von gerade einmal - haltet euch fest - 8,93€!

Absolute Empfehlung! 👍

Mi mujer colecciona navajas suizas multiusos Victorinox. Están genial y son muuuy útiles pero si pudiera elegir herramientas para el EDC (Every Day Carry) yo incluiría una pequeñita cuchara para cafés/helados, las tijeras, la navaja, obvio y el gancho para llevar las bolsas.

Mmmm, así en principio sería mi navaja Victorinox ideal.

Por qué no hay ninguna con cucharita y sí con bolígrafo o incluso reloj es algo que no consigo comprender.

Have you wondered if you’d ever find a use for the #corkscrew on your #Victorinox knife?

I’m using mine to house a #spectacle #screwdriver.
