Two interesting knives came in yesterday.

I got a nice pair that has some interest to me. One because it has the Canada Scouts logo on it, the other, is probably the most beautiful SAK I have ever laid eyes on. Apparently, they make a knife a year (stated on one of the papers inside the box) to help with endangered species. This one is about the plight of the Sea Otter. I did a quick Google and couldn’t find anything on this series. I know that if there are more out there, I will be hunting them down.

That Wenger Nature sak is beautiful, any info on this series?

Neil · **Reply #6 on:** February 21, 2010, 09:25:04 PM

I've seen a few of the nature series ones ebay before but have always been outbid. That's about the limit of my knowledge $:-\$

Chako · **Reply #7 on:** February 21, 2010, 09:56:31 PM

Thanks for the heads up Neil. Going to be keeping my eye on future ones, if any.

It would be interesting to know what other ones they have done prior to the otter.

(pm's going out to the SAKwiki team as we speak...)

I know of a Jaguar for sure as well as a couple more. Karl might be the one to ask since he seems to have a complete collection as anyone.

Actually it was a Snow Leopard. Got a couple of photos. I think the series was for some endangered animals. I have seen what looks like a Polar Bear too.

Damn that's gorgeous

Here is the photo I grabbed from an Asian website.

Oh man I so gotta get me one of those.

Chako · **Reply #18 on:** March 04, 2010, 11:35:28 PM

It seems I have another series to try and hunt for.

What a hobby!!!

Here is more info.

The above was in 4 languages. I photographed the English side.

I could not find any dates on either piece of paper. The other looked like a Wenger generic instruction sheet. Nothing unusual about that I guess.

stressmaster5000 · **Reply #19 on:** March 05, 2010, 12:08:03 AM

Quoted from the text on the above photo, "Nature Series, a new edition which is to be brought out each year."

Any dates on your paperwork? Curious........

Chako · **Reply #20 on:** March 05, 2010, 12:44:34 AM

As stated, no dates.

missed that........

Chako · **Reply #22 on:** March 05, 2010, 12:52:57 AM

You would think they would have a date somewhere in the literature or packaging. Nothing. That has me puzzled somewhat.

stressmaster5000 · **Reply #23 on:** March 05, 2010, 01:01:22 AM

I am currently doing an exhaustive search of all the knife sellers listed on Wenger.ch website. Have come across a few interesting things but nothing on the Nature series yet. Was hoping to come across a shop with old stock for this item.

Chako · **Reply #24 on:** March 05, 2010, 01:33:41 AM

Maybe these are very limited runs then? I haven't seen one before or since listed anywhere. Love that Polar Bear knife.

Here is the Japanese website if you think you might want to order it.

They are amazing. I love the snow leopard one - it might be the nicest "special" one I've seen so far

I can dream

stressmaster5000 · **Reply #27 on:** March 05, 2010, 02:35:35 AM

Something else special but so far has been missed is these knives are based upon the VIP size tools. They are larger than the Esquire. Now the scales are a little smaller than the VIP but that is due to the overlap on the edge for plain cellidor scaled knives.

stressmaster5000 · **Reply #28 on:** April 13, 2010, 11:40:32 PM

Just a quick note if anyone here was looking to acquire one os these Sea Otter knives there is one here;
