Just because some of you, guys, have complimented my OC broken-bladed knife several times, have you seen this:

Maybe some will be interested.

Well I've finally managed to get my one other grail item, a brand new OC Pioneer :drool:  According to the seller in Ebay, it was new old stock that was left over in a display case.  It is indeed brand new as far as I can tell, and I love it.  This is the first item I've gotten that I've actually had the feeling that I shouldn't carry it.  Now it doesn't really work as a carry item for me anyway, but would be just fine paired with my Swisscard once I get it.  I just don't want to mess up these scales.  I never really intended to carry one if I ever got it, so it won't bother me if I don't.  I love the rear scale without that foolish engraving plate messing up the looks.  I don't have a clue how old it is though.  The openers are the non polished version, but the blade and awl are polished.  Victorinox Switzerland Stainless Rostfrei on the blade tangAnyway, here are some pics :)

Being OC, it's pre '99. Nickle silver liners means post '84. So '84-'99.

And I think they went to the big V in the tang stamp in '85 so maybe 1985?

Thanks for that info bud :salute:  I was wondering what the liner was since it didn't look like the same metal (in color anyway) as the back springs.

Yeah you got a lucky score on that one I remember, especially considering you paid to get a regular one, and got that instead ;)

Yes it has the money clip, but the OC and sheep were a surprise.
