Victorinox Apprentice model-hard to find
on: December 25, 2009, 09:34:55 PM
The Victorinox Apprentice model is like a Waiter with Screwdriver instead of the corkscrew. Pretty handy knife and decently priced. Victorinox or SAB must have at one time mis-printed the labels and shipped quite a few of these since the one I have had for several years has the same mis-spelling. I have had no dealings with this seller before.

YES!!! SCORE!!` :climber: I have been wanting one of these for so long it's not funny. In my mind it's the perfect minimalist SAK for EDC. I splurged on money I don't have and got it just because I could not pass up this opportunity cause I may not get the chance again. Thanks stressmaster for pointing it out to us, I appreciate it.

Great little SAK IMO.  As David says it's a very minimalist SAK, but if you're not a fan of the corkscrew on the Waiter then this makes much more sense than a Bantam to my way of thinking. :tu:
Be excellent to each other and always know where your towel is.

Got my Apprentice today, looks like the box has been around a little bit (old) but the SAK inside was all nice and new. Very cool little knife, will be packing it tomorrow and see how it goes.
