Is the alox bantam back in production?
on: June 30, 2018, 06:25:09 PM
I was under the impression that the alox bantam was no longer being produced, and the sakwiki page agrees with me (in the history section). But I just checked Vic's website and they appear to be in stock. When did they start making them again? And if they are back in production, someone should update the wiki!  :pok:

Bought one a few years ago. Didn't know they were supposed to be out of production

About 10 months ago I bought one from another user on this forum. At the time I remember researching it and determining they were no longer in production. And like I linked, the sakwiki page seems to agree with that assessment. But I don't really know! That's why I made a post here asking the resident SAK experts what is going on!

It is in the official catalogue and multiple shops carry it here in the EU:

You guys in the US just have somewhat limited availability of models  :think: It is best to consult the official catalogue and european Victorinox website to check if they are still making something.
