Great Information! You don't mind if I post those catalog pages on SAKwiki do you?
The only recent Wengers with horn handles that I'm familiar with are the three Savanna (or Savana) series. Basically an Esquire, Commander and Traveler. I have an Esquire and two of the Commanders, but have never been able to find a horn Traveler.I have one older Wenger with horn handles (photo 2), so they did produce some, but they are not nearly as common as horn-handles Victorinox.I believe 'Star' was a term Wenger used for a number of its fancy series, including the Savannas, Dynastys and Europas. May have been primarily a European trade name.Karl

You don't mind if I post those catalog pages on SAKwiki do you?Of course I don't.I was finally able to get a copy of the 1995 (almost) full dealer's catalog (it is around 65 pages).Would it be better for the wiki to have it in pdf format or as jpg's?
Awesome! Super excellent catalog! So the savana pages are in there as well so would that make them also from 1995?

Yes, the Savana pages are from the same catalog.There is no date on it, but I suspect it is from 1992-1995, because:1) on photo 13 there is a newspaper picture in the background from 1992;2) there was already a picture of the same catalog (photo 48) on the wikihttp://www.sakwiki.com/tiki-browse_image.php?imageId=2013, with a 1995 date
I see the pages are actually from various dates. See the small print on the upper right of the page.
