Day 282

Elsener Soldier '1908' model - 1950

Don't know if they kept making them in 51 (like the 2008 overlap) or if its one of the last of these great knives...

Does anyone have any idea what that yellowish blemish could be on the back of the blade? Looks a bit like someone brassed this part...

Nice...I don’t know about the yellow spot. My first thought was a chemical stain. Will you be sending it in for a spa treatment?

That's definitely possible; Some other tools have minor yellow stains too...

About the spa I dont think I will at this point; ive just brought them 9 knives the othet day and I have more pieces in a critical state. This guy wouldn't need much and I probably could do it myself. Also, they cant easily service these older models as they have to break the scales to open the knives up. They can rebuild scales but it costs a lot and I'm not sure they can put back the army control stamp...

I was wondering about the scales. Thanks for the information.  :cheers:

It would have to be the 2015 one for him... But for my yet-unborn son this will work ^^

I don't know if these LE count as BYSAK though. Do they?

Same here. I was disappointed by the fact they picked red at first but it's actually quite nice!

Great pics Syem! :like: :tu: :tu:

Thanks VICMAN! He knows he's beautiful and takes advantage of it at every turn ^^

Thanks! I think that's the best-looking red alox soldier I have.
Sad thing is I've got so many knives now I could do another year and still not have used them all...

I don't have that many soldiers...
And I am doing a full year at the moment... Just in 12 separate threads :D honestly I dont think I'd be up for another year and as much fun as this is I'm looking forward to the end. Also I miss some knives I carried in month 1.

I'll probably do other challenges in the future but not of that scale :D

Yes I can see a full year being very demanding. You are going a great job! Thanks for sharing and taking us along!  :hatsoff:

Yeah that's the first 85 I ever got. I've since then found another Vic that's currently at the spa and a 1 layer red OC with an 85-stamped blade.
Dont think I have a Wenger 85 yet...

Nice! I forgot about those GAK. I've got one somewhere I think... I'll probably save it for month 11 :D I think I'll do " >100mm ". I have to check if I can do it without using too many 5+ layer knives so I still have enough to do a Stack Challenge for month 12.
