Carry this one for two years now (and a Huntsman for many years before I got this one) and I absolutely love this thing! Fits perfectly in my front pocket attached to the Victorinox belt chain. I use this one many times a day and felt helpless like a baby the one time I forgot it at home and needed it. Recently decided to show it a little love and change its scales to my favorite color and combine them with green accessories (toothpick, tweezers and lanyard).

Not sure if sarcasm, but just in case -> Yes you can. I bought the set from here:

https://www.ebay.de/itm/284906202228?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=707-127634-2357-0&ssspo=wv-wijqvtqk&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=FOpHjaIOR6e&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Then I just warmed the old scales using a hairdryer (I did not want to risk damaging the old scales) and then used a flat screwdriver to carefully detach the scales. And then you press on the new scales with a vise (but with a cloth or cardboard in between to avoid damaging the new scales).

I honestly wasn't aware you can change them.

Thanks so much for the product link and how-to, @Gorroth !

In this case, I am glad I could help. In fact, it probably sounds even more complicated in my description than it actually is. The whole process took maybe 15 minutes.

Nice, thanks Gorroth!
