Hi dudes i foun my very very very old tool. I dont remember when i had it but now that i found it i dont know its brand all i know that its some chinese "hung hang" but i was hoping that anyone may know what brand it is.

Hi and welcome to the forum.  :)

Hate to be a bit of a killjoy, but it looks as though that tool is a knock off of the Swiss army knife manufacturers Wenger and Victorinox.  Could always be wrong though.

Hey there and welcome. Unfortunatly I dont think that you will find much info on the knife posted. You see the china made market is flooded with knockoffs and finding which factory actually made it and getting a model number is most likely impossible.

But sit down and look into the forum here. You will like it.

Welcome to the forum mate :tu:

Like Ben said it does look like a knock off sadly, but I have seen that symbol somewhere before :think:

Same here, I have seen that symbol before.

Speaking of knockoffs. I had a classic knockoff for ages now. I was never impressed with it. Then I bought a stainless steel version, and only noticed that the tool set was the same as my older Benchtop junker. I just bought a real Victorinox Classic and I must say, the quality is high.

The other two cheap knockoffs have finger ripping tools, blades that wiggle from side to side when opened. Fit and finish is barely nonexistent. The Vic sings of quality. I can see why people are attracted to them, and all this time I was clueless.


From left to right, Classic, Cheap knockoff, Cheap knockoff.

Hi mate. Welcome to the forum. :cheers: That does look like a Chinese knockoff no doubt. :-\ Is there anything written on the base of the main blade? Anyway, if you're into swiss-army-type knives and/or multitools, you'd better get yourself a decent piece. Stick around and you'll probably end up with much more than you asked for. :D

Pound Shop?

I recall buying something like for £1 at one of those poundshops because it had a nylon pouch with it. I threw the knife away and put a Swiss Camper in it.

Thx for all for welcoming
OK thats what i though that its some cheap chinese copy cozi couldnt find anything about it. All what is written on blade is "stainless steel".
Like i said i just found it and its so old that i felt little nostalgic and wanted to know what firm it is. But dont worry my main multitool is leatherman charge tti so i dont use that one.
This is from those "macgyver" day when almost everyone had multitool like gyver had.
