A few werb-spots with SAK + Swiss Cheese

(I tried to translate it a little bit for non german speaking people here. But german is not my native language, and swiss dialect is really very specific to me to understand, because I never was there, so I translated just what I could understand or what I thought that I understood. So "translation Limited". :) )


What do we eat? (???)
one glass of red wine (?) (Corkscrew)
one piece of bread (?) (2/3 serrated blade)
and good swiss cheese (?) (cheese blade)
It's more like
What do you need more?
A red wine...
A piece of bread...
And a good swiss cheese

Quote

Swiss cheese for breakfast, swiss cheese for snack, swiss cheese for lunch, swiss cheese for afternoon tea, swiss cheese for dinner – sorry for maybe wrong usage of english words – The blade shows the position of time-pointer. :)

Hard to translate, even I don't know the swiss words they use, but I guess you have described it coorectly  :tu:

Quote

With... (I can´t uderstand and translate it...) (soap?) - good swiss cheese
With... (I can´t uderstand and translate it...) (potato?) - good swiss cheese
With a glass of wine – good swiss cheese
The first one is something like coffee, but I don't understand the correct word  ??? Don't know either the thing with the potatoe. Must be some swiss specialities...

Quote

(I hardly can understand it – Swiss cow eats XX Kg grass (grass) , and gives XX Liter milk (glass of milk), from that milk we make Swiss chease (SAK) :D
Quite good!
A swiss cow eats 80 kg fresh grass each day, and gives 30 liter milk, and from that milk we make the good swiss cheese.

got some info from messerforums - the knife is exclusive to the cheese people, however, from november the knife will also be available in several of the flagship shops: geneva, basel, ibach and Düsseldorf (December). Maybe Europeans can order per post.
Additionally, I got a response from the cheese people to my email: they say that although the campaign is exclusively swiss, they're happy to send me a knife under the same conditions. They might expand it formally to Germany if it is successful. They say they also have orders from America, Australia, Austria etc.
So it looks its open to any place. I might get some Appenzeller tonight with some wine beer.
Sounds good! I have to convince my better half to eat more swiss cheese  :D

It looks like this knive should be the MTO knive of the year... we always have to have the right knife for the occasion.  Maybe we can talk with the Cheese Marketing group... we'll buy 100-200lbs of cheese and they will through in a pile of knives.  We'll have them engraved with M.T.org 2010, and let them know they need to make it in orange.

SAK needs to add the combo tool (cap lifter, screw driver, can opener, wire stripper) to that knife and mass produce it.  It would be like the modern day Waiter.

Yesterday I bought a Cheese Knife at Ibach directly from Victorinox.
The one I ordered from Swiss Cheese did not yet arrive. If something should be different, what I doubt, I'll post it as soon as I get it.

Some pictures...





Comparison with an Alpineer.The scales are made of the same Nylon as other 111mm but the red is a little bit
bright. No Tweezer.


The "button" is red instead of gray.


Swiss cross as logo






Mainblade etching




Cheese blade








Box

I want one.
But it has a side-lock. That's something I don't like too much.
Which is why I'm getting one anyway, I don't care, I want it!

I'm 795Km from Ibach and I've got nothing to do tonight. :ahhh

thanks for the photos: :drool:
they look cool. I have my 5 cheese receipts, wanted to post them off today, but it was late and I couldn't find any banks open to exchange euros for a 20 Franc note.
I see no obstacles for people outside of Switzerland to simply taking part in the offer, maybe email them first and ask if they would like some extra money for overseas postage. All they care about is that you're eating a lot of swiss cheese.

Does anyone know where to get it? Just curious.
Also how do you get it in Ibach?
