I love it. I'd say it's a 75 aCr+ but that may have been a 75mm SAK.

Here`s a vintage victoria knife, 113 mm.

Yeah, I think it rates right up there with my Long Awl Pioneer in terms of "a nice thing to behold" factor.

It is probably going to get "special duty" carry for more formal occasions.

Thanks, Will.
Yes, this one is in excellent condition.

This was my old brass lined pioneer when I first got it and before I had it customized, this count? JR

My oldest SAKs - i choosed those which are dated before 1960s.
So there are basically soldiers dated 28, 33, 54, 55, 57 yrs, two screwdrivers for Vetterli rifle (i know they are not knives. But some appreciate them like the ancestors of the SAKs)
And old vitorinox gourmet, produced i believe in late 40s.

[M0rkoni]

Lots of nice ones, Novichok... 
And welcome to the club. 

[Novichok79]

My latest Swiss oldy. Believe it late 40's early 50's.
 I bought it occasionally and don't know anything about it... I tried to find out some info and only version which is more-less credible is wenger Teton duck. But it has appeared much more late. So if anybody has an idea....

Necro of a thread that I think needs to continue because people should see come of the classy old SAKs that Vic' and Wenger used to make.

A couple of the vintage models I have acquired lately

234ku (Tourist)


one of several restored 1908s
before


after


Horn scaled 234k


62 Elsener Schwyz Soldier (my grail SAK)




more old skool goodness 134k (small Tinker)


Victorinox 304  "Small Soldier"  91mm. shown next to full size (100mm) m1908




So people, get that old stuff out and show it off.

I agree with PTRSAK and this thread should not be dead for sure...

A trio of old Wengers with city crests on them.

Been showing some old Wengers. Here's some old horn-handled Vics to balance them.

Simply beautiful... 
Gorgeous natural material for the handles and nice patterns as always...that's horn. I need some of those.
