Awesome about USA availability. I was going to order one from
Weber tonight but now Im just going to wait for FelineVet.

Glad you posted about that. Any chance on starting a waiting list for
March, Felinevet?

Very nice additions.

Also Aluminum but the tools are made of high carbon-hydrooxide hexameres.

I was today in Ibach at the victorinox store. I saw not only the colored mini champs, but that the silver first mate is again in production, because of the demand what they told me, for CHF 45.80 a piece. I also found some 84 mm golfer with the long nailfile for CHF 57.60 and many different alox companions.

Wait, what?
that is awesome news. Looks like I'll be spending some money on a marlinspike knife I won't feel guilty actually using!

Oh yea!!! A First Mate is in my future. I'm very excited to hear this.

Wow. Interesting news!

Marius · **Reply #74 on:** December 20, 2013, 04:24:45 AM

I will believe this when I will see it

Until then, I'll say: false alarm likely.. maybe a leftover of the last silver First Mates run done by Victorinox a few years ago.

Marius · **Reply #75 on:** December 20, 2013, 04:29:58 AM

I got some as well and I will get more as I like MiniChamps a lot. I already had the silver ones in identical configuration so I skipped those this time. Funny detail: the red ones have a slightly darker red shade on the back scale than on the front.

Ive Got some pics of mIne

prijon12 · **Reply #77 on:** December 20, 2013, 11:44:46 PM

That black looks great.....can't wait till March when Felinevet should have some.

Probably get a First Mate too when he gets them.

Good for Victorinox!

While waiting for the alox minichamp, I picked one of these on the cheap :

Marius · **Reply #79 on:** December 21, 2013, 03:34:24 AM

Speaking of the black one, it was just what I was missing in my set

http://forum.multitool.org/swiss-forum/minichamp-owners-club/msg787160/#msg787160

However personally I still like the most the red ones. Red for me is the best color for alox.

One day I should try a Wenger Pocket Tool Chest. They look great esp. in stainless steel scales.

Saw all three of these in the wild here in South Africa this morning, looks like Sharp Edge is bringing them in.

Dr Gonzo · **Reply #81 on:** February 25, 2014, 10:13:16 AM

Sharp Edge have some very nice Alox models...pity they don't ship to the UK

Anyone know what the deal with a new First Mate is?

papercut · **Reply #84 on:** February 26, 2014, 05:26:54 AM

Just spotted them online in Asia, so they are for sure making the rounds.

I was given a link to a site with these...I've also seen them on ebay via Germay

I was in my MT shop in Gibraltar today, and the sales guy told me a new shipment from Victorinox was coming in shortly. I am very curious to see if the Alox Minichamp is with it, or even more, the Delemont collection!!

Too bad they don't ship to the USA.
