Good to hear you'll still be selling those in the future :)
That means that I can either order one online once in a while, or pick one up when I'm in Denmark (typically a few times a year)  :gimme:

And: thanks for the info on the laws in DK, quite useful to know what we're allowed to carry and what has to stay in the box with camping gear over there :tu:

Hi Hanne,

Thanks for the information.

A suggestion if you're looking for a specifically Danish knife. Several countries (Switzerland, France, Germany, Holland, etc.) have done series of knives (typically Spartans or Climbers) featuring local tourist attractions. You might consider a similar set for Denmark with the Little Mermaid, Helsingor Castle, Nyhavn, etc. There's probably more than enough tourist traffic in Copenhagen to justify such a series.

I so hope that we will one day be able to persuade Victorinox to make the 91 SAK with alox handles too. I would just love to carry Climber and Huntsman with alox handles.

If you could make that happen you would be my hero! :climber:

ah, the joy of living on the other side of the world from everyone else....
I was one of the first to order and it was posted next day but has taken this long to get here.
Black Cadet, same as any other so just refer to the pic above :D

But in all seriousness I am totally :mail:

It was worth the wait.

Thanks Per

Cool. How about commissioning white cross black alox in some novel models such as the harvester or somesuch. I think your recent sale of new old stock was a huge success. I have a hard time paying for euro shipping, but if I could order a few models it would be less noticeable (cadet + harvester!). Or you could offer the red white cross on a regular basis (corner the market). Brass liners too!

I missed your rcent alox extravaganza. It seems to have been a huge success!

Another cool idea would to make an 84mm electrician plus (Vic has a way to do the electrician blade in the the 84mm size)!  Well, main blade and elec blade layer, saw layer and then opener layer.  Would be super sweet. 

Another groovy idea:

Had three of the special alox Vics on order from The Good Stuff. The Danish Post Office said they were forwarded; the US Post Office says they haven't been shipped. Lost in a black hole over the North Atlantic. The Good Stuff just sent me a refund. Great service, but of a type I wished didn't have to happen.

Thanks again, Per.

Ouch!   

My orders from The Good Stuff Per's store in Denmark arrived all very fast and with full tracking on the way...

Was this for the Danish alox or for the last NOS stuff? If the later that's even more sad.

My first order of a Danish alox and a stainless 'coffin' PocketGrip came in very quickly with no problems. Ordered out three more of the Danish 84mms, and they vanished without a trace. Keep hoping I'll find them waiting at the PO one of these days, but suspect that's a slim wish.
