Swiss Army Knights Forum / Re: Tell me how your Victorinox 3 layer is better than my Wenger Swiss Sportsman

  I remember you had some LL Bean knives for sale a while back.  Was that the Sportsman?  I thought about buying the Vic Champion that you had refurbished.  Don't remember why I didn't?  Best wishes.  G
 

May have been someone else selling them. I gave one away on the forum in the past.  LL Bean must have requested a million of these from Wenger because I see them on eBay all the time. Really believe this is the most underrated model by either company.

I actually had three of those Swiss Sportsman's at one time. Part of me regrets letting them go because they carried so much better than a 3 layer model in 91mm. The Wenger models actually felt more solid to me compared to Victorinox. I do think the Vic scissors have superior cutting ability, though I like that the Wenger version has an integral spring.
I really don't know why I parted with them. I guess I didn't feel like I was carrying them enough to justify keeping them around.

   I was sad when Wenger went away.  I wasn't so crazy about the soft touch finish.  I like the mods.  Brass looks great and I actually prefer a clip point main blade.  Best wishes.  G

These, along with your prior post, are fantastic comparisons of variations.  Great job!
