Why oh why oh why oh why did I not get one of those black-red-shield Sawless-Farmers when they were cheap as chips? Nobody said they'd be discontinued!

Alox beauties today huh? Too bad I grabbed SS this morning...

Day 71

Victorinox Prince with SS scales and a Dätwyler ad on the scale. They're apparently a huge industrial component supplier. This thing is brand new, came with a leather pouch and is posing here with a few coins that I salvaged from the burned down attic...

Oh dear, it's another P-----r but at least this one has the distinction of having an astronaut on it. Yet another offering from the Schweizermesser-shop in Germany.

Day 72

Victorinox Escort 74mm in a gorgeous green Alox from 1970. Kantonalturnfest is apparently a cantonal gymnastics tournament.

Eagle theme today with the coins... Same silver dollar and Geneva coin as yesterday but I added the real and fake (giant) half-dollars.

Yep! Who else :D

Gorgeous knife and funny way of putting it... But does that mean that you never carry it then?

Actually, it's my most used 111mm - along with my Forester. I just like the combination of two OH blades. I thought an opening layer would make it perfect, so I got the Dual Pro - but that's a terrible knife. Also the orange scales make a nice change!

Day 73

Victorinox Ambassador with stainless steel scales and an SBS bank logo at the top of the front scale.

Used to be the #3 bank in Switzerland before merging with UBS (#2), making a new UBS (#1) using the 3 keys in their logo.

I can only look on in amazement as you reveal one 74mm masterpiece after the other, like a magician pulling rabbits from a hat...

Your Executive would probably have a slight taste of Orange jelly, the Spartan will taste of a rusty, oily old Antonov plane, no Michelin star for me  ::)
How sad are we anyway,  i have a little evo i left the plastic film on, its not even special just red  :facepalm: one day i will peel it off

Nice one Syem, I think I have a similar one: http://www.vicfan.com/2015/03/victorinox-windsor-with-sbc-or-ubs-logo/
Yours is a beauty! And in good shape too... Looks like mine got carried with keys for years.

Thank you, and yes if I remember correctly mine is unused :)

First fifth of the year is already gone...

Day 74

Victorinox Escort 74mm in red Alox with an old company logo at the front.

Given that there's only an H and the 3 words "kupfer, messing, aluminium" (copper, brass, aluminium) its rather hard to identify precisely which metal manufacturer/provider it is, but a guess might be häuselmann metall GmbH.

Here's a pink Wenger which I got in the Czech Republic. For some reason they didn't sell these in many countries.
