OK, a Cadet X would be truly outstanding, which makes me think it will never happen.
No, the Tourist shouldn't disappear. I want a new model, Tourist+fork.

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 was thinking more along the lines of......... Come on, Bring it in.group hug by magpie2112, on Flickr

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).In the Victorinox episode of Ultimate Factories, Mr. Elsener showed a prototype that had a fork, but it was mentioned that the things that many use their SAKs on would make it too unsanitary.
I will never be unable to see this now

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...

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.
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... Red celicor are cult, but not all knife fans like it...

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
