Rare 91mm Mechanic Compact model

[stressmaster5000]

This is a very rare and hard to find "Compact" version of the Mechanic. Instead of having an openers layer it has a combo tool. It is the slimmest Vic knife with a Pliers at only 2 layers thick. These were special made for the "Techline" company and were sold at Radio Shacks in cardboard and blister packs like this. I do not think Victorinox made these for their regular market as I have never seen them except in this scale/package. I have only seen these models in Black with the "Techline" logo on the one side. This is a Canada seller I am not familiar with.

That's a useful little number

Agreed, if only I could get my hands on one...

A friend of mine gave me one with red scales but there is no way to be sure if it had not been rehandled.  I think he said he had gotten it from SMKW a few years back.
