Working in a 9-to-5 office job, I was always intrigued by the Wenger's Business Tool, as it seems to combine all of the most frequently used stationery tools in one relatively compact package. My curiosity was also helped by the fact that Business Tools is sometimes "credited" for Wenger's financial troubles, and subsequent rescue and take-over by Victorinox.

Tischler has had extensive experience in using these critters and

II of the message I will discuss what I purchased as well as SOS for
the different models. SOS = source of supply.

    This month I'm making a lot of hooplah about my latest project, a new site called EDCSource.com, which is all well and good, but what is it, and what's it all about?  In a nutshell, it's a new auction site, but there's more than that, and although it's brand spanking new, there's already a bit of history behind it.
