They just arrived. Only one of the three has the chisel, and that one is actually in pretty good shape.

The other two are a bit meh. One of them does not feature the extra stops and it's also very dirty.
Interestingly, the bottle openers have (almost) no bevel :think:

Pics later :)

Pics! Not really good ones, but still :P

This one is pretty good. It has the chisel which is quite cool. I remember seeing this unusual model in France and Germany in the 1990s. I even asked the staff to search for one in their stock but somehow that was always unsuccessful :P It was purely meant to be a store display knife.
Like I said before: unsharpened blades, extra stops on most of the tools in order to display the SAK in the position shown, weaker springs. They were always welded onto a stainless steel post with a wooden or plastic base.



A blob of weld still visible on the bottle opener. The steel post used to be attached there.



Second one, no chisel. Bottle opener with no obvious bevel. This one also has the extra stops on several tools.



Half of the bottle opener has been ground off :facepalm:



Third one: unsharpened tools but no extra stops :think:
Opener without bevel. It even hits the can opener in closed position!



And finally the one I bought years ago. This one is in perfect condition and it even has the post + base:

I just got a Huntsman - it's still in the package though  :dd:

It's on deck to replace the Champion as my hiking/camping knife, but so is the SwissChamp, and so is the OHT...   :facepalm:

What am I gonna do?  :dunno:

Every Swiss Army maven should have at least one Huntsman in the stable:



"Those who do evil to others:  the killers, the rapists, psychos, sadists.  Will come to know me well.  Frank Castle is dead!  Call me . . . The Punisher."

"Out of the night comes a man who saves lives at the risk of his own:
Once a circus performer, an aerialist who refused the net...
Once a cat burglar, a master among jewel thieves...
And now, a professional bodyguard - primitive, savage, in love with danger."  - T.H.E CAT
