Will it be subforum of MTo or is the new forum sponsored by  another group.

If the later, it really is not polite to promote the new site here within MTo.

Disrespectful IMHO.
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

The forum is already online on community.victorinox.com But its only for the german speaking DACH region at the beginning.
And of course it competes with this forum, with facebook groups and sakwiki. Time is limited, and people go there where they see the most impact.

It is interesting that Victorinox would employ this method considering the presence and support the community always provides.

Manufactures have done this before, usually driven by marketing group.  Have observed forums used to gleam info from customers, monitor likes and dislikes and or provide technical support.

And, on those same sites witness heavy handed moderation, threads deleted, members banned for negative posts.  Input must be awl SUNSHINE and RAINBOWS!   

I do hope it does not, as VICTORINOX traditionally is an ally to its customers and provide solid products.
If I start and end the day above ground, it is a good day!

Hope yours is as good!

Since this is a place of open discussion (except politics, religion and Vietnamese cooking  :think:), I see no harm in recognizing that other forums exist.  Of course they do.  We all know that.

Plus, MTO is the King of All Forums - it has no competition.  :cheers:

I am just hoping for good special edition SAK's but they will sell out in 2 minutes every time they release. I also saw that all SAK's with lights are discontinued and I assume that includes SwissCard Lite also

Even more discontinued? Soon there’ll be 5 models to choose from. Bring that up on their new forum, someone please.
