Because I don´t think we have one. There aren´t any in the Club Index.

Picture coming up.

Nice! I have six, but they´re all singles. I have yet to venture into the realm of multiblade Gardeners.  :like:

The black ones have brass liners and cost more than the red ones.
The red ones have aluminium liners and weigh less.

The black pruner is my favorite.

This Vic has been with me the longest, since 1986, and was my second Vic knife ever. When I bought it I was carrying a Super Tinker, which is long gone now, but this one stayed in my toolbox for grafting and budding duties, of which it helped do a fair amount. I still have occasional use for it. I will say that it has always held a keen edge and has bit me on more than one occasion.  :D

Colorful flower knives are beautiful.  :like:

I have a few 100 mm Victorinox gardener knives.  But I like 110 mm series with wood handles too (Victorinox Pruning Knife 1.9200 in the picture).  They are very well made, but a little bit expensive.

Nice pic Ron.  What's the blade shape of the fourth knife down all about?  Is the top side of the blade sharp as well?

It´s the same knife as in twiliter´s pic. The top end of the blade has a bevel but isn´t sharpened, it´s used to lift the bark of the host when grafting.

I have been using one of the Gardener Pruner knives and a Day Packer knife in my wood whittling projects.  I have read they have higher rockwell rating than normal Victorinox knives (which I have used for years) and I have found they cut well and hold an edge longer than normal Victorinox knives.  Bryan

I've got a red Gardener and a black Daypacker.  Will post pics when I get home tonight.  I like the 100mm Vics.

They are super sharp, mine was shaving sharp when I got it, and it's done it's job over the years with minimal edge maintenance. I always wondered if it was a different grade of stainless than the SAKs.  :think:

The liners are brass, not bronze. I agree on the looks!

I've acquired and desecrated a 100 mm now :) all in the name off whittling ofc. Takes a bit to get used to whittling with a chisel grind but the steel is definitely better on the edge retention side!
