I couldn't resist, and I'm certainly not a Farmer collector or anything, but the colour got me :D

After going a bit wacky on Alox, I decided Alox Farmers were the ones I collect.  And only those that are Victorinox releases.   Some of the "specials" are in the group too, but only because I happen to like a specific one.

Is that a new record?  OK buyers speak up... what made you do it.  I see what looks like many new first time EDCSource buyers in there.

Maybe not exactly, I think this is a slightly different color... even nicer... but always hard to tell from pictures.

There's a long thread on EDCF for ALOX lovers and the link got posted there too by the man you quoted. A lot of people there got interested in ALOX SAKs in the last few months. Good for Tim's kitties, but there will be a more fears competition and bidding on EDCsource and eBay.

Oh Man!  Nice knives and photos in that thread, and I'm only 1/3rd the way through. Thanks, I see there is another large group of Alox lovers out side of this Forum.  Well at least they have good taste.

Probably the fastest sellout I've had. I priced them to move and they did. I'll probably see them go for several hundred on eBay after awhile and kick myself. Oh well...................  :think:

Don't kick yourself Tim, it's just the nature of the beast when it comes to Victorinox.  Besides, the kitties need their money now.

Maybe Reinier's Damascus sale psychologically got people itching for some beautiful Alox.

Missed it big time myself as well. Saw it the evening it was posted, thought I will check again the next morning, when I did, bam! All were gone.

Hopefully Tim will get a few more of these for us who missed the first 12.
