Knife of the Day 

Victorinox Companion SD - ALOX / Green / *** Note: with Advert ,with  shield , with Keyring & SD version ***

(SAK-Wiki info) 
The Companion is a common 58mm Victorinox knife, having the same tools as the Alox Classic. The only difference between the models is the scales, with the Companion having very thin and smooth Alox scales, while the Alox Classic has some what thicker scales that are textured. There is also a Companion SD version, which like the Alox Classic SD has the screwdriver-tip on the nail file rather than the ''nail-cleaner-tip'

  Knife of the Day 

Victorinox Classic SD - ALOX / Pink /  *** Note: Has Keyring ***

(SAK-Wiki info) 
The Victorinox Classic is the most common Swiss Army Knife, and is considered the 'basic' (or base) 58mm sized model. The Classic SD has a ScrewDriver tip on the nail-file/cleaner tool and is often simply referred to as a Classic, while technically being a very common variation. The Classic is available in an extremely wide range of colors and handle materials. It is also a very popular model to be branded with a company logo. There are a number of other 58mm knives with the same blade configuration. However, as a general rule, to be a Classic, the knife must have the Keyring, Toothpick and Tweezers. There are a few exceptions to this rule; when the scales are metal, these knives generally do not have the Tweezers or the Toothpick; The Alox Classic SD, the ((show_image.php?id=398|Brushed Stainless Steel Classic)), and knives in the Classic SD Sterling Series. To make the definition just a little more imprecise, the knives with machined stainless steel scales are known as the Broker. There is a special issue Classic SD series made for Tiffany Co. that have Sterling Silver scales with the toothpick and the tweezers.

(SAK-Wiki info) 
The Victorinox Diplomat is a 58mm Swiss Army knife that is very closely related to the Classic SD. The only real difference is it has chromed stainless steel scales and no Toothpick or Tweezers. This model is not very well known and is often mistaken for a Sterling Silver Classic.
Discontinued model.

Knife of the Day 

Wenger PocketGrip  - Red / 85mm plier tool  / *** note: Serrated version ,with box ***
We found this one on Craigslist, in Fresno, Ca , we drove up there and snagged it for $40 bucks

(SAK-Wiki info) 
The Wenger PocketGrip (earlier named the MiniGrip) is an 85mm Wenger tool that fairly closely resembles a Swiss Army Knife with a set of non-folding plier jaws protruding from one end. The PocketGrip is available with either square or needle node pliers. Also falling outside the standard SAK profile is the plier handle, which conceals a set of standard 1/4" hex driver bits. With the exception of the flat-head screwdriver/cap lifter blade (which features Wenger's automatic spring-pressure safety lock system), none of the tools on the PocketGrip lock open.

Very nice deal congrats.  I have both needle nose and blunt nose.   I really like these Wengers.  It'd be awesome if Victorinox came out with a re branded one.

Victorinox Bakers Knife - RED Smooth ALOX / 91mm   

(SAK-Wiki info) 
The Victorinox Baker's Knife, also known as the Bäckermesser, is different than other folding pocket knives by Victorinox, with a different style as well as tools. This knife, as it's name suggests, is aimed at the Pastry Chef for some of their delicate adornment work. It's curved serrated blade is unique to this knife, as is its folded length of 90.25mm. The knife has solid Red Alox scales. This knife is very thin at only 4.83mm and may be the thinnest Victorinox folding pocket knife currently in production (2008).
