Cadet X?

I've just had a custom Cadet II X made up, so that would be sods law if they did release one!

Will they ever build a fork into their knives? I like the fork on my Mikov CAK, I like it a lot.
(I would love this fork built into a Tourist, don't know whether it's possible).

I think the problem is that they've stopped making 84mm scissors :-(

Took a while to track down a not too expensive old Golfer for my Cadet (II) X Mod for the scissors!

That and the old inline fine screwdriver tool (like on the discontinued Technician) are two tools I wish they still made!

I would buy a Spartan with a fork, but I happen to like the 84mm format for tools like this.
Come to think of it, adding a fork to the Delemont EvoGrip S101 would be better still.

No idea if really new comes from Victorinox. I hope so.
With other tool combinations it is difficult to sell much more knives.
If there is another tool combination that Victorinox can sell massively, I think they would do it.
Hundred diffrent wishes of a few hundred knife freaks have unfortunately no priority.
Luckily for the modders! 

I wish for a long time Victorinox would offer other Scales.
91mm Scales,  made of finer materials, with which you can upgrade (or order) your knife.
I think of titanium, carbon fiber, G10... :dd:
Red celicor are cult, but not all knife fans like it...

I have this crazy idea that the big news for 2017 will be a merger of the 85mm former Wenger and 91mm Victorinox lines... there's a crazy amount of tool crossover; the potential is there to move to one size but provide more variety in tool combinations. Some loved tools would go in the process (eg. Do we need two scissor and two plier designs?). Some others could be nicely combined (eg. Evogrip plus scales; lock blades).

This may be far too radical...

I don't think this is likely since part of the deal seems to have been to keep the Delemont factory running. It would make much more sense to remove the Victorinox 84 mm line since they are much closer to each other and the 84 mm line has been in a sad state in regards to tool alternatives for a really long time. If they just make sure to bring back a more traditional scale I think that could prove to be a good idea.

+1 for a return of the Classic scale option. Much as I like the Evolution/EvoGrip scales, they add thickness to what should be a smaller knife.
May it be as the Pattern has chosen.

No idea if really new comes from Victorinox. I hope so.
With other tool combinations it is difficult to sell much more knives.
If there is another tool combination that Victorinox can sell massively, I think they would do it.
Hundred diffrent wishes of a few hundred knife freaks have unfortunately no priority.
Luckily for the modders! 

I wish for a long time Victorinox would offer other Scales.
91mm Scales,  made of finer materials, with which you can upgrade (or order) your knife.
I think of titanium, carbon fiber, G10... :dd:
Red celicor are cult, but not all knife fans like it...


How about this carbon fibre? Not cheap though:

They have to be glued-on apparently, though, which put me off

Thanks for the link.
The fact that they have to be glued is not optimal.

Such scales by Victorinox, easy to click on as the celidor scales,
Made of carbon fiber, titanium, etc :dd:

Red G10 or Micarta would be nice, with the Vic logo as a silver inlay

It wouldn't be press-worthy, but a wider array of bits for the CyberTool would be nice and something to sell to current owners as well as new  buyers.

And ya know, MiniChamp XAVT would be cool :P

Yeah, more Cybertool bits would be great, Do you have the extra bits that the Swisschamp XLT had? I've only been able to source three of them (from Pizzini), still after the extra flat drivers for my CT29:
