Spirit authenticity question

on: December 25, 2015, 07:24:18 PM

I have a spirit x model and it came in a plastic sealed victorinox box. I do not THINK it is fake but i do have a couple concerns. On the blade is engraved "victorinox swiss made stainless" on one side, but nothing on the other. My main concern is that there is no engraving of the vic logo on the plier head like i have seen in pictures.

Anyone else have one like this? Is it genuine?

Yes, the newer ones don't have the pliers stamp and the blades are only stamped on one side.

Pics would help verify.

Congrats!

If it feels like the most precisely engineered pocket tool you've ever handled, the chances are that it's genuine
