Hey guys, does anybody know when Vic scissors stopped using screws for the pivots? Trying to put an approximate age on my SAK. Thank you

This should help: http://victorinox.metodi.me/91mmtools.php#scissors

Not everything is 100% correct but should help you narrow it down.

It depends on the product line. For 91mm, 1991 +/- a year or so. For 84mm, never although scissors were all but extinct by the late 1980s. No clue for 74mm and 58mm models, but I do know they transitioned at some point to pivots.

Thank you guys! Being that it is a 58mm, I'm not sure the same evolution rules apply but going by that link I would say pre 1990. I appreciate the feedback.
