I’m discovering this thread is both interesting and discouraging.  Every time someone mentions a model I’ve never heard of, I look it up.  I’m discovering SAKs that I would love to own, but have very little chance of getting my hands on.

The Rangergrip 90 (top) was an ebay find,  The Bernina was offered on this forum, both years after they went out of production and at reasonable prices, so there is always hope.

Love my pre 70s 84mm Climber.
Nice copy! I have one with a VOS rear tang stamp and a shiny single leaf scissor spring. Aluminum bird head spacer so I'm thinking early-mid 60's.  The black spring on yours makes me think '69 to '71, maybe even later since I don't think +PAT was cutoff at the same time for 84mm knives.

jnoxyd also has one here...along with the phillips version!

The cellidor and most of the tools don't look right for pre-'69. I'm guessing the toothpick has the single bump...or that it will fit one that 'pops' in.

Looks like c. '70 to me.

My most-carried (in fact, I just pulled it from my pocket) discontinued model is the Rogue. I *much* prefer the flat-tipped cap lifter tool over the Rambler’s tiny Phillips.
