What about this:  http://www.tsourosmarine.gr/products_gr.asp?prodid=851

Beware! It doesn't say it's Swiss? It says Greek! But it has many Victorinox features.
I consider buying it to see what it is.

Does this one count?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/SWISS-ARMY-KNIVES-VICTORINOX-TWEEZERS-BOTTLE-OPENER-BLADE-NAIL-FILE-SCISSOR-/281250943333?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item417bdcd165

Yes, that one counts. I think the one with the star is Imperial and the other one is a standard Chinese knock off.

That one doesn't. It has to say Vic or Wenger.

So, it's a genuine Greek/ Swiss/ Chinese Army Knife.
Or is it an original one? :€

Nope, still a knock off and probably a rebranded one made in China but as it doesn't claim to be either Victorinox nor Cybertool I don't think there are any trademark infringements to claim here. :-\

I was just joking with the "genuine" and "original" designations of SAKs.
But now that Wenger is out, future generations will not get it any more.
Yes, it doesn't say Swiss or Cybertool but the tools look casted from the Cybertool 41 and not just imitated. Plus a compass and a mirror (!)

Zoom in on the 2nd picture.  You can clearly tell this is not a Victorinox.

I reported it to E-Bay.
MOLON LABE!

Nothing fake about this one.  Bulkier than keys on a ring or chain tho.

:doh:

Maybe he meant one of those light saber SAKs. ;)



I actually quite like those fake boxes, both red and blue. It would be nice if Vic made something like it for regular models.

Yep that's a fake for sure.  Besides the back tools, the humped scissors gives it away.....
There's no such thing as "Too pretty to carry".  There's only "Too pretty NOT to carry"...... >:D
