Wow. Not only for a good cause, but an excuse to buy another SAK!

I'd like to see a red/white/blue splash alox with the WWP in the blank panel. Or something along those lines in alox.

Sad for collectors but unsurprising... it is after all quite US-specific. But if you are keen on getting them, I'm sure a US member will help out.

Some of us US folks would be more than happy to help our Euro folk out around here.  WW are a good organization plain and simple.

Great info...thanks Shenkie, and thanks Beat for the heads-up!  :hatsoff:

Good looking knife and a worthy cause.  Definitely will be following up on these and will help any of the global team.   :cheers:

I agree!  They should have put them on all sak's or at least the Swisschamp one!  That would have been cool!  :)

Nice looking scales on the Fieldmaster and a SAK I never really noticed before. Good combination of tools in a relatively small package.

Are these out yet?
