Hunter Pro in Alox
on: July 24, 2018, 07:03:21 AM


Silver Alox only. Other difference from original Hunter Pro: Pocket clip option. Lanyard ring.

Of course it loses the wonderfully firm-gripped, ergonometric handle of the original. Not sure if Alox is good for a big outdoor knife. Cold, wet weather? Slippery with dressing the kill? I can't see this appealing to any hardcore outdoors folks. If you think Victorinox, it is definitely unique and great looking knife. But outside of the Victorinox world, there are so many good outdoors knives that will not be 100 Euros.

Just saw another thread on this. I check over there now...

As a lover of all things Victorinox first, and a lover of pocket knives second, I have to say that thing looks ugly as sin. It is too far removed from anything they have produced before to be recognizable by my brain as a Victorinox design, and it doesn't stand on its own merits as a pocket knife, especially not at that price point. There are so so many good options for a dedicated folder in the sub $100 range that Victorinox is going to have to try harder than that to make a splash.

I wonder what a stag Hunter Pro would look like? Even more curious is the big price tag it would probably have. I feel G-10 or Micarta would be good looking choices that work hard.  Metal scales can't be broken, and they don't harbor bacteria, or have any place for it to hide, but that's about it. It's cold in cold weather, and if left out in the sun, it will get really hot.

Aside from the appearance that it's selling for under $100, there is a story that many years ago a store owner by the name of J.C. Penney made prices like that to force his employees to have to ring the sale up at the register so they could make change.

I understand the reasoning behind making the price like that to make it look cheaper, but that doesn't make me like it more.  :cheers:

Unless they provide this knife with a higher grade of steel,than they use in their other knives,it will be of limited use.

Their steel is so soft I can't use a sharpening steel to touch up their blades.

It does look cool,though.

At this price point a better steel should be a piece of cake.Many other manufactures are able to offer a premium steel at this price point,so why not Victorinox?

I can order a Buck from their Custom Shop and specify S30V for $96.50.

The term sharpening steel is commonly used,a more accurate description is a "honing steel".The steel actually hones the edge.Stropping is nice but I've never seen anyone carry a strop into the field. :dunno:

I carry a honing steel on every trip afield.It occupies a special pocket in my backback.


PS: When a blade becomes dull from use,stropping is worthless without first using a honing steel.

I get my SAKs sharp as a razor on my honing steel too.

The SAK steel is sufficient for most people.
It's softer, yes, but they NEVER rust and are very easy to touch up on a wide array of materials.

Which isn't that unlogical, given their military history.

I think (know) that, “afield”, the softer Victorinox Steel at 56 HRC is ideal for all tasks. They can be sharpened, honed, dressed or otherwise maintained with just about any implement.
I also own a Buck 113, dressing knife with S30V steel. It performs really well whilst dressing a moose “afield”, it lasts a long time; but, and there is always a but, trying to hone S30V without DMT stone is a total waist of time. S30V is nice but designed to be maintained in a shop, as recommended on the Buck website!

Additionally, the Alox Hunter Pro knife is “butt” ugly.  :D

Toolguy, I just disagree  :angel:

Initially, the Hunter Pro Alox was scheduled for September last year. Then we heard about manufacturing problems and an indefinite delay. I hope they meet the October 11 deadline but I´ll only believe it when I see it.

I love my Hunter Pro Walnut and will get the alox as well. More than just alox scales, Vx added a lanyard hole too.

It´ll be my 10th silver alox.
