Got some new toys to add to the collection today from SMKW:
1. Victorinox Soldier, 2008-dated blade!!! Since I have been hearing that the Alox Soldier is going out and 2008 was the last year of production, I decided to take the plunge. I requested and received (although I think it coincedence) a 2008 dated blade, and that is what I got. Want to get either a 2008 or a 2009-dated (when they come out) new Soldier later.
2. Wenger Standard Issue, 2004 dated blade. Wished it was 2008 dated, oh, well. Does Wenger still make these?
3. Victorinox Collectors Book and Soldier gift set. Soldier in it has a 2005 dated blade. I saw this collectable last time I visited SMKW in person back in June 2006. Could be old stock, who knows.
4. bought my wife a Wenger Clipper AT, in pink handles. Blade replaced with a mini-screwdriver. It is aviation approved, so she can keep it with her on a plane. Pink handles, of course!!
5. 2x Victorinox ballistic nylon belt pouches (for the SwissFlame and the Angler Deluxe I bought last month).
6. 1x Wenger ballistic nylon belt pouch, for my wife's Wenger EVO-16.
