Can anyone identify these 2 Wenger knives for me. [Withdrawn]

[cdv1962]

I have 2 Wenger knives I cannot identify.  Take a look at the pictures and tell me if you know the NNAMES of the 2 knives.

The top knife has a saw and a nail file.  The closest related knife I know of is the Backpackpacker.

The bottom knife has tool I never saw before, I have no guess for the name of  this knife.  The unknown tool has a picture of  a tornado on it.

Please provide the names of these 2 knives.

I'm pretty sure that the top knife is a backpacker II http://www.sakwiki.com/tiki-index.php?page=Backpacker+II

the bottom I've never seen before.

The tool on the bottom knife is the can opener. It's the old Wenger "dog-leg" style opener, renowned for its poor can opening ability. Wenger switched to its current model opener around 1975, according to SAK Wiki. The "tornado" is a diagram of how to use the can opener. If you try to use it, be very careful. I've heard it can be a bit dangerous.

Funny.

Nope, that's not a tornado, that's a can being opened. The tool is the old style can opener. Look under Wenger.

The bottom one would probably be an old style Commander and the top one could be a Backpacker (a LOT of models were named Backpacker in various sources) or maybe Basic 8, Wenger model number 1.08.01.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

The top knife is a Backpacker (also known as the Classic 13 or Basic 08 (no t&t)). There's an error in the wiki, with data for the Backpacker II (small clip blade instead of nail file) given for the Backpacker.

The bottom knife has what is called a 'dogleg' or 'Z' can opener. They were replaced in the early 1970s by the current version. As mentioned above, use caution when trying to operate it.
