Cap lifter with wire scraper - nice mod
on: May 06, 2008, 12:35:39 PM
I was just looking for new things on ebay and I saw this:
Victorinox 84 Soldier with intresting mod:
ebay Item : 120258535117
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120258535117

Look on the cap lifter - they sharp it so it will have a wire scraper.

Nice idea don't you think ?

I added the picture to save you time to go to ebay

I can't comment on the Vic soldier as I don't have one, but my SI has that as a standard feature.

Yes, that is not a mod.  I have a '90 Vic Solder that has that caplifter.

The Soldiers that have that wire scraper don't have the wire stripper notch in them, as illustrated in the picture.  From what I've seen, these are always 80's-90's models that have the unpolished tools.

The inlay on that one is neat.  I would like to know the history behind the award it represents.

Shipping is pretty good on that one, even less than the local sellers.

He also has a 57 wenger.

I actually had to look at the posting twice to notice that. I actually think that that mod is something very slick, and would be great to add onto my farmer.

All Soldier models have that style of shield whether manufactured by Victorinox or Wenger.

These are Swiss military issue Soldiers with the Waffen Krontrolle Mark stamped on the scales. The top one is a Victorinox and the lower a Wenger.

I guess I made a mistake ... It isn't a mod. I got so much to learn. The scratches on cap lifter confused me and I compare it to 05 soldier that don't got the wire scraper.
At least I learned something new.
