Thoughts on this Sport Messer Box has Picnicker inside
on: October 06, 2018, 11:38:19 PM
I like boxes with my knives and usually they say Victorinox on them some place.  Anyone know why this box would not have the Victorinox name on it?
Main blade has VSSR and Elinox on either side.

Interesting. But it almost looks like an old Victorinox Box.

Where did you get this one?

It came with the Picnicker I bought on eBay.

I don't know anything about it, but I'd guess that like LL Bean, they were an outfitter that bought in bulk from Victorinox and got custom packaging.

Sandoz?

Only Sandoz I know is a pharmaceutical company.

The advertising on the box reminds me of old Camillus SAK-a-likes.

Thank you RR!   It will need a good soak as the original oils just dried up on the tools as seen in the photos.

You're welcome.  I don't think I have seen the same knife without woodsaw.  What is it called?

Sandoz?

Only Sandoz I know is a pharmaceutical company.

The advertising on the box reminds me of old Camillus SAK-a-likes.

Cool knife Folder Beholder! 

Sandoz was also a Swiss watch company, so perhaps it's co-branded.

That logo definitively belongs to the pharmaceutical company. These days it is part of Novartis.
It wouldn't be the internet without people complaining.
