Title: odd Victorinox SwissTool pouch
Post by: EMZ on August 12, 2018, 09:36:25 PM: Is anybody familiair with this SwissTool Pouch?
Seems a little bit odd to me. And I didn't find any pics of it on the internet.
At the moment, it is being offered for sale (NOT by me!), together with a 1996 model SwissTool.

It looks like there is an elastic band on the side. That band plus the shape of the flap makes me think it is designed to hold and protect a flashlight as well as the tool. I'd guess something like a 2xAA style like a mini maglite.

Edit: found it! I was close, seems it's for a 2xAAA light

It is indeed made for the Swisstool + 2xAA Maglight and I always thought it had the appearance of a gun holster.
