Do you want the sad news now or do you want to wait for your phone call from Connecticut?
Go ahead...Replacing the bent tool shouldn’t be a problem as the Bantam is still produced. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I thought they only did those repairs in Switzerland?
I believe so. The local dealerships send the SAKs to Switzerland for repair, in batches, several times a year.
For what it’s worth, I haven’t gotten any calls from Victorinox, but the website shows “repair in process”. Maybe that’s a good sign?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Just checked again a few minutes ago and it’s status has now changed to “Shipped” so I’m assuming it’s on its way back to me. We’ll see what they did once it arrives. Even if they just tweaked the combo tool and tightened the rivets, I’ll be happy!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Need a with that?? HahaSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Well, got the Danish Bantam back. Kinda disappointed. It appears they tried to straighten the combo tool. I mean, it’s better than it was. Definitely usable. I can’t tell if they fixed the peening of the rivets. They might not have been bad. Maybe the Bantam is just so thin I feel flex from the tools flexing as well. Not really sure. I can see the scales flex when I push hard.
That sounds like an uncharacteristically poor show from Vic, sorry to hear it. The rivets will surely be loose If there's play in the tool pivots.
