Here's another link, showing some of the implements fanned: [link]. Seems like the knife and scissors fold out and screwdrivers bits slide into position.

They're a bit different, not seen them before.  I've got a Gerber clipper that is basically a Classic with nail cutters bolted on the side.
I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

Browsed the site for a bit, a can of zippo fluid is over $50!? And you can engrave it for $5.  ???

I hope it's not another stuff out-sourced from China.

Well it's a new one on me as well.  Anyone have any thoughts on these?

I bought 3 of them on e-bay a few months ago.  They weigh twice as much as the SAK models and are really crude in finish.  Victorinox has nothing to worry about here.

If thats the one where the drivers push out the front, then its the only MT I have thrown away.  They kept collapsing to the point of frustration.

Put me down for a big "PASS" on that one.   ::)
