Bumping this thread up with my newest Vintage.
That is great! Is this a 1930s SAK?

I'm sorry, I don't know the age.  Perhaps someone here will know.

And they better speak up quickly or I’ll start blabbing about 1973 again!  ;)  :D

Beautiful SAK FolderBeholder! And in such a good shape. Look at the shield and cross (actually two separate inlays). They are in surprisingly good condition.
You should seriously visit vicfan.com. All the hoopy froods are doing it.

Nice knife, Xfile! I like combination of four rivets and these stamps. Can you tell what metal are liners made from? Rivets looks steel, aren't they?

Thank you kamakiri. But why 1973? What's the special significance of this year? :climber:

Hi jnoxyd,Its liners looks like copper, as shown in the picture. I think its rivets and reamer are made of carbon steel, which is very interesting. Can you confirm the right age?

I’m not allowed to say.  ;)

The liners are brass, not copper.

I'm just wondering, is there a four rivet structure in the Victorinox of the 1920s? ???

Maybe the stainless parts are replacements in a slightly older knife?  :dunno:

Those two parts can’t be from before 1921.

Well, unless your flux capacitor is working  ;)

I think the swiss knifemaker "Kloetzli" assembled that knife with victorinox parts. That was common those days. He just used 4 visible pins instead of 3. So he could use 4 pins with the same lenght. Everything looks original. All inox parts.

Just picked this one up. The stamp looks like 1943-1951. Can someone tell me the pattern and value? Decent condition, I had to stone the blade tip as it looks like it was dropped and the cork screw is slightly bent. Also if you know what the engraving on the blade means. Thanks.

N°247?

Maybe worth ~$100 USD with minor condition issues.

I did good then, having paid 1/4 of that. Is the N247 the pattern number? Thanks kamakiri.

Then I think you did very well! At least from what I can see. Main blade looks like it’s only missing the very tip? Hard to tell without seeing it tools closed. Ditto for the valuation without seeing everything like the ends.

I think that’s what it would be. Based on this later catalog:



I don’t think earlier catalogs have that pattern?

Cool find!  :like:  It's indeed a model 247 and it's probably from the 1943-1946 period (because it has the pre-1946 can opener). Here is the page with this variant from the 1942 catalog:

That's probably the name of the original retailer that sold this SAK (J. Chesi from the town Neuchatel).

So you think this knife is assembled with  "Kloetzli", not Victorinox?

Wow, great! Is it 84mm or 91mm in length?
