Yeoman with white plus scales.
on: September 30, 2018, 09:07:36 PM
Just picked this up.  Were the white scales offered or are they added later?

It's got a clear mag lens housing and hook with file. So it has to be a +B offering with white scales offered/added or it's a mod.

I think SwissBianco puts the mag and Phillips in the middle. ***Edit, I see that is where that is....so it could be a +Bianco as mentioned by Mechanickal.
I recall Scientists having white scales.  It could be a mod.
Either way, it looks nice!

Here are the SwissBianco offerings:

As far as I know, Victorinox didn't make them with the Phillips layer in the middle, only +Bianco, but I could be wrong.

Thank you for that.  I had an idea while watching, possible someone got the red or black and changed scales?  I guess I'll need to pop a scale to see the peening is factory  :think:.

So far I am not aware of any white scaled +B.  I like that stay glo  :woohoo:

I like the hook with the nail file on the same tool. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah it looks like a +B one.  He could have ordered it from them and had them put on white scales.

Popped a scale to take a look at the peening.  Looks legit, what say you experts?

At first glance they sure look legit to me, but I haven't been SAK collecting as long as others, so I will look forward to their interpretation.  :popcorn:

Thanks FB.  I've seen quite a lot with out scales.  Those liners however are a little different to me  :dunno:.  The peeing looks legit.  I am hoping its a +B with added white plus scales.  I think I'll get some stayglo and move this on if thats the case.  I'm no "real" collector and someone would appreciate it more than me.  I just don't want to sell a modded yeoman as anything other than what it is. 

I should have said initially this SAK was bought purely for catch and release.  Verification was to be forthright as best I could when I listed it.

Thank for your posts.   I agree it looks legit.  Man, what a find.  Ok now that I have the scale back on I need to add the mini driver which was the only part missing.  Those white scales are worn so...   Ok thinking out loud. 

Thanks all.  I appreciate the posts.  I was really confused on this one with those scales.

Glad it seems to have worked out.  I was a little anxious when I saw the white scales and sakwiki had no reference to them.
