Family of US Navy knives
on: June 30, 2016, 02:18:27 PM
Here is a gallery with four different US Navy Swiss Army Knives. Two are Classics and two are Spartans.









As far as I know there are no other variations, but if anyone knows about another one please feel free to let me know!  :salute:

Good hunting!  :salute:

You're probably aware of the alox soldier for the Dutch navy.  There's also a very rare Explorer for the Italian submarine service. Probably others, but those are what I know of.

Yes, I know about the Dutch one (KM), the Italian is new to me though  :tu:

Man... still a lot of collecting to do  :P

The Italian Vic has a crest with a dolphin and 'Sommergibili" on the white handle. Apparently one of a series of five special commemoratives done for the Italian military. I have the mountain troops one.

A Hiker for the Military Alpine School.

There's also a blue Craftsman for the Elicotteri Carabinieri (helicopter national police). This and the submarine one were being sold on ebay. The seller said there were five, but didn't list the other two. Always possible there are more in the series.
