It's a 58mm Pocket Pal with Victoria tang stamp and old style (out of focus) nail file. And my fingerprints all over it :ahhh

That's a cool one! I've got a few orange ones as well (none for this thread though). Had not seen yours before. I wonder how those companies get Victorinox to make custom colored scales 8)

Large enough orders, I asked once but I can't remember what the exact numbers were. I think 100 sets of scales.

Just a hundred? I would have thought way more than that. Tempting!

I'd have to look it up in the old emails with my local distributor when I was ordering by the dozens for Syph007 and GigaHz. But that was years ago and things might have changed. I wanted a few emerald green scales back then and was told that they could only order current production colors, except fo large orders they could ask for Tampoprint.

That and the material is nickel silver! The other inlays are stainless. Plus the slip for that one was printed with ‘PLANTERS’ on it. I think the only time I’ve seen that.

And it’s also the only Bijou out of the 4.

I found one!!!!  I didn't take it out to look at it earlier because I thought it was a perfect match to the other like it and I find out it's a Bijou!
I don't think it's nickel silver though.  :dunno:  Sheath under tray is just plain black.
