I do not think cleaning a knife or any other piece of gear with a solvent is the same thing as getting some on the item during routine use.

I love SAKs; I have carried one and used them for going on 30+ years. For me they are reliable, useful, affordable have fixed numerous problems and have gotten me out of a lot tight spots. However, they do not dissemble nor do the scales stand up to certain solvents. These two detractions, (IMHO) are insufficient reasons neither to include them as EDC nor to use them as my primary means of repairing/fixing what life deals me. The benefits far outweigh the negative at least for me.

Just my 2 cents-
