[North Man]

Hi

I sent an email to WEnger asking about a older Scout model and in the reply they sad it was retired, also in the reply i got some pictures,
i may have missed a topic if they may have been posted earlier.
I have tryed to find the date when the first Wenger lockblade(85mm) was introduced and i found some models in the 1991 catalogue if i remember correct, very interesting lock that they got patented, then i found info saying it is much older early 80s??.

What specific older Wenger Scout model were you asking about? Do you have a description or photos?

HI

Thanks! yes then this must be so

The model i got is one of my favorites, on the box it has the number 1 17 91 and under 100 that does not look like price tag, I estimate this knife from the 90s, however it has the older type saw with longer spaces, i found one time an article on Sosak with a model called Securite 17 that looks like mine

The Scout emblem is official and is inlay of non magnetic material. Not the best pictures.

Sweet looking knife and it NIB. I found one of these recently. The inlay should be nickel-silver.

That S18 looks great

I have one also, same code on the box.  I bet yours doesn't smell of moth balls though.  I've had it a couple of years now and still the smell lingers
