He proceeded to open a few drawers and pull out 10 Wengers. I snatched the whole lot for CHF 100.- then went back for the master (not pictured, paid 42.-)

That's really cool. Not even on tutti they would have been so cheap. If you find a shop so cheap in Zürich let me know  :D  :cheers:
Well they were not in original packing or anything... Just lying in his drawers for years... Old demo models. Just an incredibly lucky draw on my part :)

The big yellow ranger with Patagonia Expedition scales is just incredible...

Some very nice (and some very expensive) additions everyone!

I haven't posted here in a while because I got too many knives at once and the more and more... Probably around 150 since the last time I posted here.

Bit of a funny story... I passed by one of the biggest and best located tourist trap in Geneva... I've passed it countless times over the years but never stopped. The other day I noticed a Vic display so checked it out and noticed a Victorinox Master, grey scales, "your companion for life on the road" on the blade... The whole shebang.
Asked the lady how many she had and she sent me to the "main" shop... I went there and the guy didn't know or have the knife i was talking about... Before I left to go back to get the apparently last one in display where I first saw it, he said "i have lot's of old knives if you're interested".
He proceeded to open a few drawers and pull out 10 Wengers. I snatched the whole lot for CHF 100.- then went back for the master (not pictured, paid 42.-)

Junior 10
*not sure*... Entree with Philips instead of corkscrew... Didn't find it on the wiki
2x Signal
Spot Light




And these 5 are all display models with dull main blades (the edge on the big blades have not been ground)

Wow...thats like a instant collection in one shot! And at a great price! Enjoy!

I bought this a few weeks ago.It was reasonably priced but combined with the 15% discount it became a deal that I coulnd't refuse.

Nop, old red box. Mine has different combo tool... rounded version. Is it earlier maybe?



:think: 
Does anyone know when this tool appeared in 84mm and when did it change to the current shape?

Thank you!  It's a Hiker...a Camper with scissors and phillips instead of corkscrew.  I may have said it was a Camper, but I meant Hiker.
