A few current red SwissBianco SAKs, including couple of my personal favorites: alox MiniChamp and Pioneer without ring:

Isn't that a Cybertool Lite?

It's very nice anyway!

I thought so too, but who am I to argue with these ebay sellers.

Ah, those flea-bay sellers can bite my shiny metal a$$!!! I'll PM you about the purchase we'd talked about before Brian.

A Wabenmuster Tinker and US Flag Super Tinker (4th July is coming!) between some 91mm slimmer Vic friends (the Champ beasties live separately, may eat these smaller guys) and some smaller Wenger brothers. The Craftsman stays guard to watch out for the Champs

A nice part of what is apparently a VERY nice collection!

1964 Wenger standard issue. Has better snap than the new production SI's

tattoosteve99 · **Reply #3669 on:** June 30, 2012, 06:43:38 AM

Thought I was getting a mechanic. Turns out it is a discontinued motorist (economy) in almost perfect shape. Now the question comes, what do I do with it and how rare are they?

Currahee · **Reply #3670 on:** June 30, 2012, 09:35:07 AM

Today the Postman delivered another vintage black Champion (not pictured) with the fluted corkscrew and the following vintage Victorinox knife that bears the "Victoria" tang stamp on the reverse side of the master blade. Both knives were from recent eBay auctions...

As shown above it is 2 7/8" posing next to a Cadet. Since I have never seen one of these I would be curious to know what it might be called and also how old it might be. When did Victorinox quit using the Victoria tang stamp? This little knife does not appear to have been used and is in excellent condition. Great snap on all 3 blades. It would be a terrific dress knife since it is very thin and would fit in a vest pocket quite comfortably. The entire knife is stainless steel.

Thanks a million, Reinier! Indeed, it is a very nice little knife. In fact, I guess you could cal it a Prince of a knife!

That is really a beautiful knife! I love the handle material (horn).

Currahee · **Reply #3678 on:** July 01, 2012, 01:01:03 AM

85mm Wenger Tahara with long nail-file...

Any help with further information about this very old knife would be greatly appreciated.

ColoSwiss · **Reply #3679 on:** July 01, 2012, 02:30:34 AM

Here's a Wenger Junior 03 that's tied in to the German version of the movie "Dolphin Tale". The US tie-in was a plain-jane Evo 16 with red scales.

Just in from sunny Spain, a Hunter XT with orange handles.

Marius · **Reply #3681 on:** July 03, 2012, 05:31:47 AM

Karl, very nice one! I am waiting for Tim to get these in and get me some orange DD

How would you compare this orange Hunter XT with the previous one in green?

Few pics with my green to keep the thread pic happy:

ColoSwiss · **Reply #3682 on:** July 03, 2012, 05:48:30 AM

Only difference is the handle color and a corkscrew rather than a phillips. I thought these might be another Europe-only run, like the orange Wenger Rangers, so ordered out a Hunter XT and Hunter XS (no saw) from Filofiel in Spain. From a using standpoint the orange would probably be easier to find if you dropped it in the weeds.

Marius · **Reply #3683 on:** July 03, 2012, 05:59:28 AM

Nice, thanks!

Personally I feel the Hunter XT a bit "hollow" compared with other liner lock 111mm SAKs that I have. May be just a subjective feeling. I feel the hollow scales in all their splendor as soon as I pick it up, while for example on the Soldier they are not obvious at all that are not solid through (two extremes).
