OK, so many of the photos are hot linked to other websites and you want replacement ones uploaded to SAKWicki right? I have a few of these but my photography skills are not that good. I will try some later.

I did the write up in the thread in my sig line. Hotlinked to vic and wenger sites and some unknown sources. Having them hosted on the wiki would be far better. You have an admin account on the wiki, right?

Yes but I do not use it anymore. They should take my name off that list. Once in awhile I post a new photo of a Flag Classic and add it to the series page but that is about it. My photography skills are not up to par with some that have been posted so I am not sure what I can contribute.

I'm sure you have quite a few SAKs that would be a welcome addition to the wiki, maybe even some that don't have pages yet. The artistic value isn't that important. :D Seeing the tools and differences to other models is. ;) I've been using some of your older pictures that are already on the wiki already. :salute:

Victorinox Alumnus

Can you confirm that the Alumnus also came with a reamer with sewing eye as it's written in the wiki? Or is that a mistake? Thanks, and thanks for all the pictures. :salute:

My version doesn't have the eye. Don't have any catalog info on it, so can't say whether or not they ever did. Maybe see if someone here comes up with that version.

Caddy Plus, Bladeless, Whistle, Secretary, Alumnus, Lumberjack and Recruit have been uploaded and updated. I added the pictures to the Prince but we're still missing the Cavalier (non keyring) and the Treasurer (imitation tortoise-shell scales).

I've crossed out the updated ones on the original list.

We're still missing:
58mm:
 Executive
 Talisman

74mm:
Cavalier
Treasurer


But great progress so far. :hatsoff:

If you notice any mistakes or something that needs editing, let me know. :cheers:

Yup, the very same. I've bought many a knife off the colorful carpet.

I wish he'd stop using it. Not easy to see details on it.

Coloswiss contacted me about that one some time ago. I was supposed to contact the seller and ask if he could take better pictures for that model, but I had much to do that week and forgot. :facepalm:

Glad it ended up in the MTO family. :cheers:

At least Karl isn't going to :twak: me for my forgetfulness. ;)

Wouldn't do that, things are looking great! Besides it was all Kirk's fault anyways.  :twak: :D

Not sure if this is any use to you...  I can't identify it.   :-\  It can't be the Talisman because it has a flat head screwdriver like a Rover.  I bought it used from Felinevet along with some other SAKs a couple of years ago.

Thanks for posting this. :salute:

It appears to be similar to the Talisman as an advertising SAK too. Hopefully someone will know the name of it.

Karl, are you thinking of this page?

http://www.sakwiki.com/tiki-index.php?page=Wenger+Series+and+Special+Editions

We still haven't created the page for the Tactile / Soft-Touch Series and that's just a placeholder there Francis created. I think basilio did some research on them a while back and I see he included it as a reference on some other models, but a page for them would be good. I don't know anything about them other what I read here so I'm not much help for that. Maybe a discussion better suited for another thread or the Wenger thread. :cheers:
