To be honest, I'm not aware of an "original" version without scissors and I don't know where that information from the wiki was taken from.
But I may be wrong.
As far as I know, and at least in Europe, both models, with (1.79.36) an without (1.79.37) scissors, were available since the 90's.
The Wenger Cigar Cutter is an 85mm model with a specialized tool for the cigar smoker.
This page covers several different models and needs to be updated.
Oh. 
I don't really get it
