Victorinox Imitation or WTF ... :D

[N_N_R]

This knife's been at home for ages... Is it some cheap attempt at Victorinox or what? Any ideas? lol. The blade's always been sooo blunt and as I'm not that much into knives, I never really tried to sharpen it or sth. It's barely used, anywa. Just occurred to me to post pictures

No offense, but that's a very crappy knock-off Probably made in China.

[dks]

Yes, plenty of them on eBay.

The scissors are especially ugly.

Lol, of course not, I'm just asking what the heck that is I know it's not a real one

Scissors still work!
 

Wow... I didn't know you could make a knife out of taffy.

There's something annoyingly familiar about that logo, I think that brand has been distributed in Norway as well.

Quick, throw it away before someone is getting hurt..

I think throwing it is the only you COULD hurt someone with a gummy SAKalike...

[MultiMat]

Yep your very own CAK  is yours a piece of CAK 

[Smaug]

It's either a Sharp or Imperial.

Not the worst, but not good either. I have an old Sharp brand one from the 80s. I keep it in my work toolbox, and have no guilt about it.

[N_N_R]

I don't have the slightest idea what it is I only know it won't bend like the one in the video, lol. But the blade is useless

[J Mackrel Jones]

I don't believe it is by Imperial or Sharp, who made decent but inexpensive knives.  The scale logo although inlaid brass is typical of a type made by a firm in China; also typical of the chinese are the scissors nubbin (for the nail-nick) and the cr---y steel.  No tang stamp?

[N_N_R]

Ok, ok, it does read "Stainless China" on the base of the blade I hadn't even noticed it 

[gustophersmob]

I had one with that exact same logo when I was a kid, probably sometime in the late '80s early '90s.  Even back then I could tell it wasn't as good as my Vic.

[magentus]

Yeah - my wife bought one from Lidl or Aldi - can't remember, but I quietly put it away and found her a Farmer instead.

Are we still talking about this piece of junk? Throw it away!

it should make a good paper weight.

I'm not throwing away anything which can be sold to unsuspecting people at online auctions! How do you think I save money for multi tools???

[Zed]

I had this one as well, i decided to take it apart for parts but found the parts to be badly made so i scraped them, i think i sent the scissors in a tin of bits to zoidberg

A bad seller rating won't help your cause.

Release it into the wild. Just leave it sitting around somewhere a kid wont find it. Or give it to a hobo.

Lol, why a bad rating? Selling things on auctions is one of my hobbies I use only the auctions in my country, though, because the taxes they charge are smaller. I always describe the products in the best way I can, take as many pictures as people want and do anything for them to get the right impression about an item I sell. I've never claimed this was a SAK and will never do I put a low price and everyone in their right mind will guess it isn't real. I don't see why people, who've bought old bottles, second hand shoes, clothes & wallets, for example, (and many more cheap knives, btw) won't buy this thing, too, lol.

[Smaug]

NNR - I didn't notice you were outside the US. Is that the Mexican flag?

I guess if it works for you, then go for it. Here in the US, real Victorinoxes are selling used for under $10, so there's no point in messing around with cheap copies.

[N_N_R]

No, the Bulgarian  You can figure out the flags by just hovering over them with the mouse

As for the other countries, yeah, that's why I don't use eBay- the things I sell are usually so inexpensive (so that people prefer them [plus they pay the shipping] over new stuff) that what I earn would be enough only to cover the taxes, lol. Moreover, may be no-one will buy that knife for months or years I just enjoy "having trash for sale"

I tried clicking on the flags to find out what was what, and when that didn't work I bookmarked a fancy site that lets me plug in colors and features to figure out which flag it is. Nothing like doing things the hard way.
