Victorinox Knife
on: June 02, 2016, 11:27:03 PM
Hey all, new guy here.

I was going through my tool chest in the garage and came across this knife.  Can anyone help me identify it?  I appreciate everyone's thoughts and look forward to being a member of this forum.

Welcome aboard! What you have there is a 1961 Soldier, the knife issued to the Swiss Army from 1961 to 2007.  Excellent knife, they're tanks. Does the tang of the blade have a two digit number? If so, that's the year the knife was issued.

Welcome to the forums!  :salute:

You should know though, in the interest of your health, you will need to remove that knife from your house very quickly. Avoid the dreaded alox pox, as a cure is still not developed. As many here can attest.

As I've already been exposed many years ago, and its terminal, I will be happy to let you ship it over to me so you can avoid the heartache that alox can cause. :whistle:

 :rofl: :gimme:
🇨🇭
Merit Badges Start a thread with photos of at least twelve different colored ALOX models in your collection Must start a thread with a photo of at least five (5) of your watches Start a new thread including a photo of shooting at least two (2) different firearms and at least one (1) photo of target (firearms) Start a new thread with a photo of a modded knife or multitool with your EDC Start a new thread and post a photo of a flashlight as part of your EDC
