 :like: I absolutely love that green one, and I have never seen that color in nylon.  You do see a few blue 84 and 91mm ones, but not that often. Seems it's red, followed by black that is seen the most often. I saw a blue Ecoline AT&T Climber at a local flea market, but a: the knife was heavily used and definitely worn and B: the guy wanted almost $20. To me, it was a $10 knife at best.  At present, in 91mm or smaller nylon,  I only have a Tourist I converted to Ecoline for use as a work knife. The scales came off a Sportsman II.  I also have an Economy Bantam, but the scales are regular slick Cellidor.

And being a bit of an automotive enthusiast myself, the "Mille Miglia" event knife is pretty cool.

Personally I don't think I've seen nylon scales in anything other than red.  Nice looking collection.

Thank you. I didn't know what it means when i bought it and i did a little research. It's an old sportscar exhibition in Italy and Japan! I love sportscar too! Especially those old fashion!

I think I prefer the nylon economy scales over cellidor. Maybe not as shiny as cellidor, but far more durable. You can even pop them off, and pop them on another knife without problems. I only knew they made them in red in black. The other colors look really cool.

Very nice collection. I have not seen most of those colors of nylon scales before. I have one with nylon scales, a red climber II. There is such a large variety of Swiss army knives out there, it's great  :D

I only have two Ecolines, a Tinker and a Recruit. However, a few years ago when nylon scales were easy to find I was able to buy red, blue and black nylon scales in both 84 and 91 mm size. So I now have nylon scales on a small Tinker, a Spartan, a Climber, a Tourist, a Hiker and a Huntsman. All my users!

Nice collection, Wunan!

The shiny cellidor is probably better selling than the dull nylon. However I like the nylon scales more.
Unfortunately I have no 91's with nylon scales, only 111's. But with a little bit of luck that can change in short time...

Does the nylon 91 mm version have the pin hole??
