Did you watch the annoying nutnfancy video on the new cadets coming out this year? Also the worker with clip point blade? I had to watch just to see.

I just watched it cause of you

The Vic rep said new green, orange and another colour this year. At 3:38 if you want to fast forward it.

It looks like nutnfancy has a crush on Becky. And he shoots her bottom a couple of times, which makes him a naughtyfancy.

Only slightly old news.

Since people on this forum were already aware of the Hunter-XT and the Mammoth Tusk knives (she says they will be here in the spring ), Becky was the best thing at the booth this year. Now NutN'Fancy has one thing I want.... her phone number...

Even Becky called the Spartan in the Camping set a Waiter; I wonder which knife it'll actually ship with.

The Day Packers look nice, though I still need some Gardeners.

You never know... but the new sheath looks awesome ... i'll take a few of those.

That blue one is likely to be a very hot seller.

jan. · **Reply #7 on:** February 15, 2012, 02:56:51 PM

That blue is maybe the same blue as the last 50/50 limited editions sold by Felinevet.
The silver looks like has no red logo.
And the orange looks like the same orange sold the last times in US.
But te new sheath made for the Cadets looks great.

All I need to know is WHEN and WHERE do we get them?

nsa-x-file · **Reply #9 on:** February 15, 2012, 05:40:56 PM

Nice to see the Cadets again.

Hopefully that will stop some of the high prices some have gone for in the past on-line.

Especially the Orange and Red models.

Syph007 · **Reply #10 on:** February 15, 2012, 05:44:28 PM

Gunmetal blue is what I want! Those also would sell for a crazy price usually. Looks like I'll have to mix up my own GM Blue color and anodize on my own.

I agree, making the Gun Metal or even the copper again would be cool.
Then at least others could get a chance to own them without the high price.

Ashley · **Reply #12 on:** February 15, 2012, 10:22:21 PM

Wonder when and where we can get them?

That Silver one is interesting, it's logo/shield is the same style as the recent 58mm Slim Flash series.

Notice that none of them have keyrings? This should make them all quite desirable for the collector. I wonder if they will be available in a keyring version as well.

I suspect the blue will be closer to the Farmer Blue of the past, but that's just a big guess.

Completely missed that about the keyrings, lol

Will have to pick them all up now.
I like the new style packaging as well.

Am I right in assuming that they are intended for the Swiss market and some of them can be purchased via swissbianco? (following his post at bladeforums)

felinevet · **Reply #16 on:** February 16, 2012, 02:56:54 AM

Sorry guys, this is a European only isue right now. No projection of when/if U.S. dealers will get them.

Ashley · **Reply #17 on:** February 16, 2012, 03:21:01 AM

So the new cadets aren't being released here? Then why did Becky show them here?

felinevet, do you know if they will be available in all of Europe or just in Switzerland?

My information I got is that they made 2000 sets and sell them in Swiss, Austria, and Germany.

nsa-x-file · **Reply #21 on:** February 18, 2012, 07:38:33 PM

As soon as they are available in Europe I'm buying a complete set with the pouches.

Ashley · **Reply #22 on:** February 19, 2012, 01:18:44 AM

Just to check my friend emailed swissbianco and he wants $55 each plus shipping. He said there was 4000 of each color made.

A Swiss retailer told me a similar price (CHF 49.00), but nothing about the quantity.

enki_ck · **Reply #24 on:** February 19, 2012, 03:19:37 AM

I'm a bit

about this new info. I expected this to be a new full run of regular priced cadets, not another limited run.

You and me both.

I was also thinking regular run until my friend let me know what swissbianco had said. :-/

Don't dispair too much. First, the colored runs have always been limited. They just happen to repeat from time to time. Second, I think there are some others that are coming that are aimed at the US market. I doubt they will have a fancy sheath with them, but something like that might be optional. Victorinox has really been good to us Alox fans the last few years, and I don't think they are ready to quit yet.

In the mean time, check Felinevet for a black dirt farmer and plant some rosa for spring!

Already have them on the way. Both look very nice.
Especially the Farmer.

Ashley · **Reply #28 on:** February 19, 2012, 03:29:36 PM

I'm also in line for a farmer.
