Question- the pins, or rivets on 93mm knives, are they brass or some other alloy/ metal? I believe they're brass on the 91 mm's, but they don't look like brass on the alox scale models?

For the 93mm models victorinox used nickel silver rivets, also called german silver.

Thanks for the reply. I thought it might be some such thing. Reminds me of "Nordic gold" in Euro coins.  :)

I love the pruner blade... Great for opening parcels etc.

And a comparison shot with a Barlow, just to show that the 3 layer Alox Harvester that people may consider thick is actually thinner that a regular Barlow knife

Any info on this knife?

Um, sorry. I do not really know anything about this knife. It is a Cadet with officer suisse tang stamp.
Someone once told me it was a collectors knife of a SAK collectors-club that no longer exist. Whether that's true I do not know.  ???


Please help by experienced collectors.
