I have several advertising knives, but only one which is alox.

Retired engineer, author.

A man with one multitool always knows exactly which to use. A man with many multitools is never quite sure. - parnass

I'd like to bump this old thread with my humble contribution :)



If anyone wants a pic of the SAKs opened, let me know. Gold is a Voyageur and red is a Cadet II. I also have a smooth Bantam on the way. I have just recently started getting into smooth alox 84mm and I'm amazed with how many there are out there to collect

Albany International? The company that evolved from Albany Felt? ;)

I EDC'd a SAK before MacGyver did...

BTW, while we're at this color combination, was the choice of kingfisher in any way connected to the Indian beer? :D

Not really advertising but it isn't the usual Alox model.
On the scale is stamped KL83, that means royal army in the Netherlands.
Was supplied to my father in 1983 while serving in the army.
Probably the only quality product that was supplied to them.  :cry:

Here's a thread you can read up on those DAKs/Dutch army knives.

http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,18395.0

There was also some interesting models made for the Dutch air force/Koninklijke Luchtmacht. Those are marked KLU Eigendom and come in either blue smooth ALOX or  blue cellidor/plastic scales.

Looks great! I am always amazed how many Alox advertising models I do not know yet

There are 3 93mm I have never seen  :sa:

Was noticing there were four different pieces of equipment shown on the Case knifes. Wonder how many there actually are.

This case knives are really nice. I know only these four.

I collect primary smooth alox knifes with company names, advertising, etc., and also often wonder what it still all there.

That's why I started this thread.
And I'm always happy when I see a knife for the first time!

Couple 93mm alox I've had modded. I've a few more packed away but I'm too lazy to dig them out. :)

Enjoyed the pics from other members. Seen several I'd like to have myself.  :tu:

Out of all the collectible Swiss army knives out there, this one boggles my mind the most - just can't see the appeal. I must have missed at least one in my lifetime because I found out just recently that these are quite valued

I searched high and low, all over Schramberg and surrounding Flohmarkts for the black checkered ALOX Junghans one. Asked my aunt who used to work there. Nothing. :-\  I have a few people on the lookout though. ;)
