Ah - OK - Great - Thanks Nate

Not quite sure how H=clip-point - Maybe it's the German word for C-P - But all good   :tu:

You're right, Huntsman.  :tu:

Clip point in german is called "Hechtklinge", with hecht meaning pike (the predatory fish).
Best regards and stay safe,

That's great T-G - Good to know - Thank you

And very interesting that the clip-point blade in German is named after a pike   :o    :)

- I love it when a mystery is explained    :D    :tu:

Post for fellow members also suffering from SAK OCD and people interested in the minutiae of Vic model codes    ;)
 
Did anyone notice this?   ???
I was updating the annual Alox page in the Wiki with the Evoke for 2024 -
I noticed that the product code root was a duplicate of the Hunter Pro - ie 0.9415
I was making some updates to the Hunter Pro page and had a look at the model numbers there - And I think I worked out the mystery
The model code refers to the frame of the Victorinox models

Please refer to the images below from the Wiki page.
  • The first Hunter Pros had a model code root of  0.9410  - OK fine that is the new code
  • When they introduced the lanyard loop onto the spring we got a new model code 0.9411
  • Then they introduced the Alox models which had a slot for a pocket clip in the frame so another new model code 0.9415
  • In Vic model codes blade types are always identified in the suffix of the model code eg W for wavy/serrated; M for one handed etc
  • Note: The scale type and colour is also identified in the suffix of the model code eg 3 for black
  • When the Evokes came out - They have the same frame as the Alox Hunter Pros with the lanyard loop and the clip in the frame so they are also 0.9415s
  • As it is only the blade that is different with the thumb-stud in the Evokes - this is catered for by the D in the model code suffix !!  :tu:
Brilliant detective work and theory - Don't you think!!    :think:     :o     :D

Only one slight problem
- According to my theory above the clip point bladed models shouls also be 0.9415s but they are 0.9425s
Any thoughts?   ???

Maybe the c-p blade is designated enough of a change to warrant a new root code  .... when the thumb stud is not ?    :think:

Brilliant job, Huntsman!  :tu:

Regarding the clip-point bladed models numbering: maybe the frame has some changes that are invisible when the knife not disassembled?
