One Blue and one Green Pioneer X
on: October 19, 2016, 04:13:47 PM
I'm asking 66 euros per X to cover postage and Paypal fees at my end. New price here in Germany is a few pennies below 50 euros.

Here's the Blue - It has only been out of the box for this photograph. I have never opened the blades, so it is as new as it could possibly be.




Here's the Green. I have taken some photos of it before (they're on the Multitool forum somewhere) but other than that it is also brand new.
The blades and scissors etc have been opened but never used.
Taking the photos today I saw a tiny bald piece of Alox on the inside of the scales. I don't think that's a result of anything I did, but it's worth bearing in mind if you are looking for Alox perfection. (2nd photo, top edge of scales)






Let me know if interested. Or if you require additional photos / information.
I will send each X via Deutsche Post (German postal service) with tracking.

It stands for Schweizermesser shop - the vendor in Germany that sells them (and which doesn't ship internationally, as far as I can tell.)
Victorinox recently changed its rules so all special alox SAKs have to be marked in some way.  So Swissbianco has "Swissbianco" all over the blade (kind of ugly) and Schweizermesser has this fairly unobtrusive "S" logo.
They have some fantastic regular Pioneers in all sorts of colours. The Pioneer X only came in red, green, black and blue and last time I checked red and blue were sold out.

Are you willing to ship internationally?  I was trying to get the blue one from that site and it sold out

Annoyed that I missed the red, but apparently he will have more in stock in 6-8 weeks

Doh!!! I just came on to check if you had replied on the shipping and see the blue one is gone.  I guess it is not meant to be.

Ouch! I'm really sorry about that Dustin.

Payment has been gratefully received for the Blue X and it should be zinging its way across the Atlantic very soon.

No worries, congrats to the new owner.  I ordered a sliver one to try out and tide myself over.  Never owned an alox SAK before, scissors are generally a must for me.
