Is the Deluxe Climber still being made?

So.. is it? It seems to be awfully rare if it is. Can't seem to find any regular store that sells them new (and a casual search didn't unearth any used ones either).

There's the Deluxe Tinker of course.. but I think I'd rather have the corkscrew since it can hold the mini screwdriver and the can opener works fine as a philips as well.

Then again, I've never owned a Vic with a Philips instead of a screwdriver so maybe I should just get the deluxe tinker to try them out.

Edit: Or maybe even the Mechanic? I do like the scissors though..

I may have found one NIB for $44.10. PM sent.

Cheers

They doseem rather rare though so I'm guessing they're not in production any more.

Nice find! I've been looking for one of those for a LONG time.

Checked Smoky Mountain Knife Works, Knife Center, and Swiss Knife Shop; also Swiss Knife in Switzerland. None of them had it in stock, so it looks like its gone.
