These reswiss look awesome, where can I get one?

He offers them up on ebay, done in small batches I believe. I've bought the blue, orange, and yellow Classics, and seen them in black and green as well, even a black Minichamp version.

This Wenger serrated Master arrived, from the "group buy"...

Maybe one of the members that bought several can sell you one at the right price..

Check this guy listing, he's probably the guy who bought 5 pieces to resell it. A few with only 1 bid sold for the same price too.

Japan Airlines 30th anniversary Classic with old logo. This comes from 1981, and it looks like new!

You can buy an axe, just not something dangerous, like a 85mm folding knife, right?

My Patagonia Ranger 179 arrived yesterday; impressive knife!

I don't have time to day to do much in terms of a report on it, and the conditions outside right now are making it hard for me to go out and do any real testing with it, but as soon as I get the chance, I'll snap a few pics with my phone, test out the implements, and report back. I'll try to eventually put together a real review of it.

Yesterday I received my last batch for a while ...

Serrated Vic Weekender
"Coffin" Stainless Wenger Traveller
Vic Sportsman II
Wenger Inline Skater
Old Style Vic Explorer
(Hooray for Tim)

One is for use, and the others are for the "pending" drawer which contains the items I want on standby for when (if ever) I get round to doing a bit of SAK surgery. Thankfully I think that drawer now has everything I want to hand for a 84, 85, and 91mm dream SAK, as there are too many other things I have to spend money on now

It's actually a very light shade of green.
I was not able to get a very good photo of it.

Thanks Ash, but it will work out pricy enough to not bother at the moment.. and I'm testing my will power

COMPACT replacing my silver scaled explorer. Couldn't be happier with the tool set. Now for some new sterling scales.

enki_ck · **Reply #2781 on:** March 29, 2012, 02:42:34 AM

I fell off the wagon again.

After 3 months of, "I don't need another SAK", I now have a Wenger Watchmaker 85, a Wenger Diplomat, a Vic Classic and Cadet on the way.

How does that 12 step program go again?

For everyone's information, I just posted my first review. Of my new Wenger Patagonia Ranger 179 in the reviews section.

Knock knock. Who's there? Banana. Knock knock. Who's there? Apple. Knock knock. Who's there? Orange! Dang, now how does that joke go?

Here are a couple of Orange scaled SAK's. The Wenger Traveler with Shutterfly is like new and the color is slightly less dark than the Orange Victorinox Rally.

Well, I got it off some random eBay auction of absconded TSA knives. Obviously it is an advertising piece for Shutterfly, which is a web based Photo album I think. I do not use them. These were probably made for the folks who work there.

This knife was so new it still had the clear plastic film scale protector on one side. I thought Traveler at first but since it is EVO and has a locking blade it is technically an EVO S14. The color reminds me of that orange you find in the Creamscicles, more light orange than dark.

1. Realise you can't have too many SAKs, or knives in general, for that matter.
2. Get more SAKs.
3. Go to step 2.

4-12 is just about damage control in regards to SWMBO and similar, but I'm blessed with one who is very tolerant towards my “habit”, so I've never learnt those steps.

From over here, it seems your're doing just fine.

Hope this helps!
