Maxt,thanks for the information about your kit and your participation.

A google search has revealed sales only in Europe.

I'll continue to search for a seller stateside.

.
You've all convinced me to change my vote. It's cheap for the parts you'll use and then you could offer the other parts to the rest of the forum - spread the good cheer around.

Great idea,thanks brother.

If they added bushings to the parts list I'd buy one just for those  :tu:

I don't need one, but I'd buy a set just for the wonderfully organized box.  So tidy.  :dd:

However other parts, like battery covers in different colors, I probably will never need at all.

Maxt, a friend of mine is desperatly looking for a replacement battery cover.

Would you be interested in selling 1?

Please PM me if so ;)
:cheers:

TTT for a few more opinions.

Thanks to every member who has participated so far.

I'm happy to report the parts kit arrived today.What surprised me was the small size of the container.Obviously I didn't pay attention to the published dimensions.LOL

Case dimensions: 9.75"L x 7"W x 1.75"H

Please don't misunderstand because I'm not complaining.I like this size.Since I've moved my collection into Plano storage cases and then placed these cases in cordura gear bags,this parts kit fits perfectly.

Here in the first photo are some parts that I discovered while rummaging through some Victorinox gear bags.


The next photo shows the newly arrived Replacement Parts Kit .Hooraah.

It's cool.

Let's face it,this kit is the cost of one medium priced Vic.

Here's the last pic with the kit filled with the parts that were stored in plastic bags.

Cool! :sa:

Thanks Mech


Here's one final thought.If you're a buyer of new Vics,the chances that you may need replacement parts is small.If,however,you are searching for older models,then this parts kit will pay dividends.

My statement wasn't directed at you but all members who have viewed this thread.

Only you can make that decision whether to buy or not brother.

I'd love to, but haven't got a clue how to source one localy.
Ebay is an option, but shipping is ruining the deal... as usual.

I would have thought that obtaining one of these kits in the EU would be easier than the US.

Can you order directly from a dealer in Belgium or maybe Switzerland?

Just a thought...is the seller also selling SAK??? Is there anything you are wanting? Shipping drops some to free sometimes.  :whistle:
