Super flashlight GG, don't think I've ever seen that one. is that a Ti head on that or SS?  Love the body anodizing too.

How about some blue in here, after all we're going to be welcoming new blue Cadets soon.

I was working on a comparison shot to show how much darker the red scales were on earlier SAKs, as I really like the darker color.  While I was looking around for a newer one, I found another old one and a couple other 84mm SAKs and decided to do a group shot which I rarely do. Gotta love 84mm.

Thanks!  :cheers:  That Arc was a limited run and it came that way. The body and head are both aluminum.  :tu:

Well so far my 84's are a Tourist, Salesman, Climber Small and Golfer. The Golfer has been in my pocket constantly through the holiday season so far and has been outstanding. I've got a Compact on the way with all the benefits the plus scales bring, but the 84mm just rides so well in the little jeans pocket

EDIT: Forgot I've got an 84mm MFV too  :oops:

Mmm did Victorinox make a BO mini farmer with black scales?

Thanks man!
Too bad I don't live near Boston, though...
Otherwise I could photograph your entire collection.
I'm a freelance event photo- and videographer, and I wanted to mess about a bit with product shots, so my new SAK's were volunteered to model :)

Hello!
I liked the photos of knives, which are placed in the subject.  :tu:
I also have a Tinker. I got used to it and all the while carrying a pocket of jeans. Here's the knife.




On the hilt of the knife has never been the emblem Viktorinoks. There is only a company name on the blade.
Black pattern on the handle, I paid myself. Chisel on wood. To knife different from other people like it. All my friends have the same knife. And they were all the same. Unmarked ..
Now I have my knife is always fast differs from the others, if they are close by. If we find ourselves with friends outdoors, or just drink beer at a large table in a bar soccer

Yes. I made this thread itself.

He recently rescued me. When I walked in the evening on a city street, and I tried to rob two drunken guy..






They were then very painful ... :twak:

It's nothing that I'm writing about this here? Forgive me if you can not.

Yeah - Fess up.  We won't tell.
Beautiful work on the handles.  Nice work on the drunks.

They did. According to a catalog from the 1950s or 1960s several 74mm, 75mm, 84mm and 91mm models were available with horn scales.

Here's a Spartan-like model (91mm so off topic in this thread ;) ):



I also have a Victoria branded knife with a single clip point blade and horn scales coming my way 8)

There is one for sale on eBay right now that is in pretty good condition. Its due to sell later on today so I guess we will know the approximate value then.

Yea, but that one has the disadvantage of marketing etched on the blade and 3***3 as one of the bidders.
