Help needed: Wenger Champ with Turkish flag logo
on: February 15, 2018, 02:10:07 PM
I found a picture on the internet of a Wenger Champ knife with a Turkish logo instead of the Wenger logo.
The Turkish flag has the colors inverted. (with on red intsead red on white).

Is it rare??

Well, it's the first I see. Is it original or is it a mod? Did you try googling it?

That is strange  :think:
I don't think a Turk would like that
They would want the proper flag  :salute:

I would guess it's like the Victorinox world logo that where sold in Muslim country's because they may have found the cross to be offensive.

Just a guess though I may be wrong.
Jeep the SAK of the auto world or is it SAK the Jeep of the Knife world?

I'm another with the "designed for sale in Muslim countries where anything that looks even close to a Christian cross is a big no-no" theory. Just like the Vic logo that's a globe over the letter "V".

+1 on that, even read some time ago about some issues Victorinox had with Muslim world and their logo

In accordance with Wikipedia, it is a National Emblem of the Republic of Turkey (proof link).
