Title: Two questions I can't find answers for..
Post by: hard.times.lures on June 01, 2018, 04:57:51 PM: Did Victorinox ever make the Super Tinker model without the hook?

ALSO--Has anyone ever seen a Bantam model without the 1/2 stop on the combo screw driver?

Thank you kindly, Bryan

All Victorinox SAKs with scissors made before 1991 have no hook, and there was a time when the combo tools had no 1/2 stop.

Didn’t really notice the 90° stop on the combo tools... will need to check my samples... :cheers:

I can confirm that the 84mm cellidor knives with the older style combo tool did not have a half stop.
