I have a question about 85mm Wenger Skier.
on: May 15, 2017, 07:55:17 PM
I have the older one produced in 75'/76' according to SakWiki.  The scales are pretty beaten up but over all the tool is in great shape.  I was wondering if it were possible to change out the plastic scraper for a Vic mag glass?  Also I would love to change out the corkscrew for a Vic phillips? 

Well when I say "I" what I mean to say is could any of YOU do it?  I can pay you in parts and cash.

They say nothing is impossible, however, it would depend on the tool thickness as well as the spring shape.  If the spring has to be reshaped for the mag glass, it has to have enough meat on it to be reshaped.  I do know that the clear and the grey mag glass use different shaped springs.  Maybe someone has a disassembled wenger so you can see the spring shape before disassembly takes place.

Thank you.  I think I'll take some measurements and go from there.
