I found this on ebay - a cheap, blue Climber. The pictures weren't great so apart from the blueness I didn't know what I'd be getting.First surprise - no hook! So I figure it's quite old. Second surprise - no rivets on the scissors. Hey! It's an antique! But in "like-new" condition.Third surprise - which I would have known if I'd paid attention to the ebay photos - no toothpick or tweezers.All in all, this is great - cos i never use the hook, and I always, without fail, lose the scale tools.One thing that's interesting is the pitting on the can opener tool. I've never seen this on any of my other Victorinoxes. Is it corrosion or was it built like that?(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)ps.The box says "3.3701" which isn't one of the numbers listed on Sakwiki. The nearest mentioned there is 1.3703
Hm... (Image removed from quote.)Maybe this isn't the box it came with.
Ah! So that's what it is!It's a lovely Sak - maybe a bit to nice to use. The "H" instead of the Vic logo is pretty cool. Too bad my name isn't Horace or Henry or Hercules, otherwise it'd be perfect...
It's hard to believe they saved any money making this "Economy" model... I mean it is identical to any other Victorinox in terms of quality / construction and only lacks the toothpick and tweezers. Which must amount to, what? $0.20 cents in production costs?And as I mentioned, the absence of slots on the scales is a big plus! Nothing uglier than the gaping hole left when you've lost the tweezers!
