Victorinox Set
on: August 08, 2008, 10:05:04 PM
Some time ago i found this in one of my boxes, a white Victorinox pocketknife with serrated blade together with a fork and spoon.
Has anyone seen something like this before ?

Both Vic and Wenger do them, it's just pretty rare to find them on 91mm Vic's :)

As far as I'm aware there were no 93mm serrated blades, so you'll have to get a 91mm and use the blade from a serrated spartan or something else instead :)

The 91mm blades don't work well in the alox knives.    I got a serrated soldier in a couple years ago so there are a few of those out there but good luck finding them.

I've been looking for a while now.

You can always break out the chainsaw file and make one  :D

If you're wanting to add pliers, you'll need 2 alox saw springs to run it in the alox knife.    The handle needs to be reshaped to fit right and the backsprings need a small flat ground in for a landing for the plier tips so its a bit of playing around.
