So, we all love our heavy duty, hard to kill, die hard tools, don´t we?
More prybar than cuttingtool, nukeproof...
Thtat´s the way it is, right?

Something smaller than a Handyman or a Herkules won´t so it, for a multitool we choose at leat the Spirit or even better, the Original Swiss Tool?
..big Divers Watch, 600feet waterproof.
We are Men! Whoohah!
Well...
Sometimes, it can be a little smaller, at least for me.
And that´s what it looks like:

Small, lightweight, full of options.
So, when Victorinox announces a new Limited series of the venerable Classic, for the sixth time by the way, your´s truly has to have a look.
It was a contest, which brought us these new motives, all from the animal kingdom :-)

That´s the way to go, well earned win, I´d say!
Being a series of ten pieces, you´re in for a ride, so grab a beaverage, and have some fun!
Front and backside have different prints on them, nicely done, as always.
Here we go:

Not to get political on this one, but sometimes a nice little Ark sounds like a pretty good idea... Not beacuse of rain either.
With this one, I hab to think of Snoopy, Omega (which is located in Swizerland as well as Victorinox) and the Speedmaster. So sweeeeeet:

Right now, I still don´t own a Omega Speedmaster Professional, so if any of you doesn´t need his, it will get in decent hands, promise :-)

With ten models, we have the luxury to show all tools in one picture. My collection isn´t that small, but ten from the same model? Hardly so.
There are too many variations with Vixtorinox, but with the Classic, its a no brainer:

Knive, scissors, nailfile with small flathead screwdriver, tweezers and toothpick. And the ring for the keychain, of course!
A bummer, with some variants the knob is colored too! Never have seen that before.
Wouldn´t it be cool to have this feature with the white, red and black versions as well?
You bet it would!
I will burn, burn, burn, in a ring of scissorsssssss.....:

I´ll grind you...
Who , if not Victorinox...

Is there anything, which hasn´t been written about the alltime Classic, a bestseller for years?
Well, the guys and galy in Ibach must get something right, I´d say.
For me a least :-)
I realy like the choice of motive, so I got all ten, as you´ve seen. Obviously :-)
The quality is the same as ever, impeccable. Has been, is and will be for the next 1000 years I guess...
Ever got QC-hickup with Victorinox?
Nah, me neither, never nada, niente.
Me, a fanboy?
Absofu****lutely
Do I own more than I need?
Sure!
Could I arm a small army with my collection?
Hell yeah!
Does my wife love anyhow?
With all her heard, as do I.
The Classic Limited Edition 2017 is a real treat and I hope you had some fun reading my rumblings...
If you have any questions, shoot!
To us and those like us!
Cheers boys!

:like: Great post
Although i dont own any limited edition classics yet, i do like looking at them, they are real nice works of art and very useful too, the two i will probably end up getting are the honeybee and the woodworm
I think though when they are all together they look fantastic, so probably i will end up with more than two, nice collection you have there :tu:
