- This little fork was meant for onions or olives in vinegar. Not enough potential customers.

- For the comb, Urs Wyss (the guy with the white shirt) says it is for hygiene reasons :
It is not advisable to put side to side a comb and a knife you cut your food with.

- The tapemeasure was too tiny to be readable/usable, and the lamp goes back to "before the LED" times,
so, as Urs says, it was 90% lamp and 10 knife. Makes little sense.

Post by: Noa Isumi on August 16, 2018, 11:32:20 PM: No need for a comb...the fish scaler works just fine for that.
:twak:

And what is going on with the one behind the fork model? The blade seems to only be sharpened at the tip and it has a tang lock hole like you find in traditional switchblades, but there is no room for the rest of a trigger latch. It cant be that because the logical place to put it would be on the outside next to a scale. There is a main, but that doesnt look like a normal pen blade either. So what is it?

Perhaps it has a little too much flair so such a stoic and traditional brand as Victorinox?

Of course! The fish scaler itself is a multitool.
