Salesman showed up today and it's great!  I love my Super Tinker but the 84mm size and lack of the key ring make the Salesman that much more pocket friendly.
Anyone know the best way to straighten that small blade?  Also, all the tools are super stiff.  On MTs I usually do a Dawn bath and a PB Blaster soak but I doubt that would be great for the scales.  Any recommendations on the best way to clean and free up the tools?

That's a beautiful salesman

Hobie on YouTube has a blade straightening video that's pretty good.  Exercise caution ⚠ for sure, tips break off pretty easily if you're not super careful, and even then they still do. 
Do a quick search on the Swiss Army Knights Forum. And you'll find plenty of information regarding cleaning restoring and oiling :cheers:

Not a sak, but I do remember posting something about this years and years ago, and some clown pm'ed me wanting to buy it. I got this about 30 years ago in one of their new York City stores, before there were any bans against them, and I don't even know if they have any Manhattan stores anymore, 1 was in Penn station, the other was Rockefeller center.. Hoffritz branded butterfly knife(some jerk in college tried to sharpen it, hence the scratches, other then that it has held up perfectly, and opens closes smoothly like a Bruce Lee Kung Fu one)

Thanks  :salute: no plans to edc it as it's the only one i have ever held and i have plenty other Climbers for edc if needed, this one will be cleaned, polished and displayed...maybe an occasional 1 day carry  :D
Just out of curiosity can it be dated by the stamp? Knife has fluted corkscrew, scissor screw, hole-less awl and no hook, would love to know a rough date  :tu:

By the  looks of it I'd say early 80's, one way to tell if it's free 80 is if the cross inlay is stainless steel or nickel silver.  If it's got a patina it'll be the older nickel silver.  Scissor and reamer pics please?
