Very very few Victorinox Soldiers came out in 1974.  Victorinox didn't officially issue them in '72 or '74, but there are other options- I have two '74 Wengers and a 1974 Camillus USMC Demo knife which is similar, at least in configuration.

Birth year SAKs remind me a lot of shoe sales.  I love when I am buying shoes and I say "I need a 9" and they respond with "I have a 12..."

Like suddenly my feet are going to grow several sizes just for his/her convenience.

Just last week I caught myself doing the same... someone asked me about a birth year SAK and I mentioned that I knew where there was one a year or two off... before realizing that this person was probably not going to change their birthdate over a pocket knife....   :ahhh
