Hi all,

I am looking for a 1965 Standard Issue or Soldier.  Wenger or Victorinox, red or silver, does not matter, must be stamped 1965 on blade.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

I was waiting for someone more knowledgeable to reply, but it looks like it's not gonna happen.

I take the total lack of response to mean: "put out an automatic search on ebay and settle in for a wait." Let the 'bot do the legwork. and your patience, hehehe.

I'm going to do something similar right this instant to find a birth year Soldier or SI for myself.  :)

I have done just that.  There was one I was bidding on but lost.  They don't pop up that often.

Earlier years like the 60s don't pop up that often. I recently bought a red 1965 elsener from a fellow member here and like most other 1960s soldiers, they are quite pricey for the condition they are in. It is however special to me because it is the year my country gained its independence, and being the patriot that I am,  I just couldn't let it pass, especially after the seller gave me a discount.

Just out of curiosity, is 1965 your birth year?

I've seen a few on ebay from that decade, can't say for certain about that year.  I've seen a couple for my birth year (71), but they always go for crazy prices fairly quickly ($100+).
