Walker
on: September 06, 2015, 07:03:13 PM
As some have alreay note, Vic has recently (it's not in their 2015 catalogue) resurrected the Lumberjack & baptized it as the Walker. It's still 84mm, w/red cellidor scales, blade, saw, combi-tool, & key ring but somewhat enhanced w/toothpick & tweezer, 0.2313.

Now make it in alox, add a reamer and scissors

"And now, it's time to hand this over to our tame race axe driver. Some say, he can live in the forest for six months at a time without food, and he knows of a secret tribe of only women where he is their God. All we know is, he's call the Styx!" - TazzieRob

I did order that one but received the wrong model the other day. I might re-order it soon because this is perfect for when I'm at my parents summer house and other places. No unnecessary tools on this one.

Honestly, I don't see why it's so special.  It's just a My First Victorinox with the blunted blade swapped for plain drop-point blade.  But, since it's in all practicality the Lumberjack, why not retain the name?

Still though, I think I may pick it up.

Hmm, this appears to be another not sold in the US model. Judging by the fact that the price in the posts shows pounds sterling. I really wonder how many SAKS are out there, not sold in the US - but world wide?

Nice unit however - great for those times when you don't need a full set of tools.
The early bird may get the worm, but it is second mouse which gets the CHEESE !!

Unfortunately, the same story goes for Europe.

I would have liked to buy a Wenger Serrated Highlander. I couldn't find it on amazon.de, amazon.uk, knivesandtools and what have you. So I decided to go to amazon.com. They had it in stock but the seller would not send it to Belgium. I still tried a few others in the U.S. Same result.

Highly frustrating!    :ahhh

What a happy accident this turned out to be!

So I ordered the Walker off of eBay for a pretty good price. But I got sent the Super Tinker instead. I emailed them about it and they said they'd send me a Walker to fix their mistake. I offered to help cover some of the expenses but they declined and said this was on them.

So for the price of a Walker, I got the Walker -AND- Super Tinker. The Walker arrived today. (And on the left is my Swisschamp, on the right; Minichamp)

Sweet deal!

Indeed, a simple gesture like that can make me a customer for life. Gerber has also treated me quite well in that regard. It's really the smart thing to do, you can either save a bit of money and turn the customer away, or you can spend a little money and make me a customer for life. In the end it'll benefit them and me.
