Wenger Swissors
on: December 08, 2018, 05:17:26 PM
Just curios to know if any members have a pair of these.
I've googled and can't find them here in the UK.
Reason.... My partner has asked what I want from Santa, I would never buy a pair myself, but a gift would be great for the Wenger collection. Was hoping they'd be heavily discounted now, like maybe bargain bucket deals  :ahhh
 :drool:

Has anyone ever handled a pair of these? I suspect the quality to be extrodinary considering the RRP and they were designed and built by Wenger.

You'd certainly hope so
Tho' at the ridiculous original RRP I figure many are seldom used.
Are you aware of them ? Have you ever seen them?

I've never heard of them before.

A search turned up this. Seems pretty cool!

I found that page too, but there doesn't seem to be any for sale here in the uk, not yet checked overseas.
Just to clarify, I don't have a scissor fetish  :D, but I think these sit between the Wenger business tool and other outrageous concepts they produced.
You really have to admire Wenger for pushing the design boundaries.....but they paid a big price for their innovative ideas.

Agree with you about Wenger's wonderful designs and was always fascinated by the Swissors

This site in Italy still seems to have them ...... Bit pricey ......
