Here`s a real vintage one to go a bit away from those mid 70s knives  ;) Hope you like it. 100 points for the one who can write the correct catalog number of it.

Cool knife, but can you put a date on it? 😉

Sure. The head of the tweezers tells me that this knife was hand grinded and assembled by Mr. Elsener Senior in the 3rd week of april in the year 1898 ;-)

Thats what he told his wife. But in fact, he worked day and night on that knife, together with his 12 years old son Karl Elsener the second. The son was so fascinated on that project and of the passion how his father developed that special hoofcleaner, that on that very week, he decided to become also a knifemaker.

Thanks for sharing that - I’ve seen the first knife before, but not the second.  :cheers:
:hatsoff:  Here is another early SAK with aluminum scales (this one is mine  :D ):



It's a Spartan (model 205) and it's probably a bit older than both of the SAKs in Hobie's video. Also, it has the following features that I find quite interesting:
  • An uncommon "Deposé" stamp on the screwdriver. My understanding is that this stamp was used in some French-speaking markets around the same time when "Gesetzlich Geschützt" stamps were used in other markets.
  • The corkscrew is filed on two sides in a way that "squares" it to fit into its place. It looks like it was a design principle that no part of the corkscrew should protrude beyond the scales. Achieving this didn't require special efforts on SAKs with fiber scales, but this SAK design is much thinner (since the aluminum scales also function as liners).

Wonderfull knife MiniChamp!

I think those aluminium scaled officer knives were produced for the french market. Dont know what was the reason.. but I have seen other similar aluminium scaled knives from french knifemakers. Maybe the french people just like the bling-bling of polished aluminium.

I would have built you a correct looking one for less. Looks like it’s in pretty good shape. Is the metal saw clean-able?

Yeah, I’d want one in a box. Anything I can build by reducing a Champion...I’d really only rather have with a box and the correct label.

Congrats on winning it. I’m sure there was competition from MTO viewers.

I figure I'll hold onto this one until a mint-in-box one comes along....not sure how long that will be.

I was watching that auction from the sidelines, as I already have a Modeler (albeit a more recent one), but I think we all know the bittersweet feeling of digging deep for something we really want.

Not to worry; it's only money.  Congratulations!
