So I've been away for some time now and a bit out of the loop regarding victorinox news. Am I right in thinking there is still no farmer X?

And please don't throw rocks at me if the question was repeated at least 10 times in the las month...  :D


If you really want one, Speak to tattoosteve99 - he's made these as custom models in the past, if you supply him with the necessary donors (Pioneer X and Farmer), you also get an ordinary Pioneer with the leftover bits. Would also give you a choice of scale colour if you pick the right donor versions...


See attached photo for an example (not my knife)

I like that photo somebody posted on an old thread of a farmer with his horse and the eyes were covered up so it was an unknown farmer, ie "Farmer X"

You mean this one?  :D

I have been thinking about a custom made unholy union of a farmer and a pioneer x with brass liners and black scales for a while now. But the thing is, I've been a bit spare cash free lately as I had to buy a car for going to work and so on. So I will have to wait a while longer. And there is always the possibility that victorinox will get their smurfs together in the meanwhile and start producing an alox sak to rule them all. Which would also mean I could get the mod done cheaper.  :D

You bought a car... which costs money!
To go to work... which raises money!

Problem solved! (In the long run)

Meanwhile you could glue some alox scales to a Huntsman :rofl:

I have back from the future pics of a couple of different configurations of the prototype for the OC Farmer X.
As you can see, these were taken after much "in the field" testing.

That's a nice one.
I have a Green Pruner, which I don't carry any more, because it lacks scissors.
I also have a kind of Alox Compact, with blade, combo opener and scissors.
Could somebody make a Pruner X from these?

I like the scissors of the 58mm range, and don't need any on my other SAKs.
So no Pioneer X or Farmer X for me.
