Thought it was priced about right...Sure wouldn’t mind getting it for cheaper, who wouldn’t!

I am a major Victorinox fan, but I totally agree. That knife needs to be offered in the sub $100 range. I mean, the Benchmade Bushcrafter in S30V is that price. You can get a Becker BK16 for around $80.

they look good. value for money, especially with the competition on the market is questionable.

I guess it'll show if it's worth the price once someone actually held it in hand :shrug:

They look great but with offerings in that price range I'd say they are off on price.  While not everyone cares for 3V I"m not sure if Vics steel is what I'd choose for a fixed blade.

I agree Steve.

I like the looks of both knives, but I think the price point will limit sales.

It will be next year around April before I can even seriously think about getting one, so hopefully the price will come down a little.

I agree with Steve too, with Benchmade 3v puukko at around 120usd, and Cold steel has a couple 3v fixed blade probably around that range too, Victorinox will be facing some very stiff competition.

Personally I think Vic steel is adequate for day to day use, but not entirely sure it's good for harder use in outdoor setting.  I for one will really be curious it's performance.

No "might be" about it.  Country of origin = Spain.
