Are the topo contours actually of the Kleiner und Grosser Mythen - ie the mountains behind the Vic factory - Even cooler, and amazing if so

Got a topo file? And who knows, maybe we can submit it as a design by MTO :facepalm:

I have a question about the swiss champ xl wiki page. The description says "It extends the already large tool selection of the eight layer SwissChamp by adding another three layers containing the spatula, electrician's blade/small pruner blade and the divot tool."

Does the XL have 11 layers? I've counted only 10.

Hi Mate,

Thanks for the query - Good to know that people are thinking about these things
...... And you had me worried   :o

However - I have looked at the third image in the body of the text - the one with the box
- and going along the bottom (tweezers end) of the knife - from left (shield scale) to right - I do make it 11! 
Here we go:
1. Openers
2. Mag glass - Phillips
3. Pliers
4. Spatula
5. Divot tool - On its own
6. Fish Scaler
7. Wood Saw
8. Electrician's and pruner blades
9. Scissors
10. Metal File
11. Large and small blades   

Does that make sense?  ???

Do you have an XL  or are you getting one - They are quite rare!!

For now, I ask you not to do any more edits to the wiki, uploads or anything as the wiki database is very unstable and will just give us extra work once we do a move.

I've been holding back on making edits, but I do see several changes that were made in the last couple of months. What is the current situation regarding editing and the move?

Whoey is pretty busy right now - With travel and covid work recovery
So we can carry on for the time being - He/we will alert everyone when he's ready to do something - And we'll announce a freeze/move plan etc if necessary

As enki suggested - Maybe don't spend loads time on formatting which we might loose anyway - But new content is great

Although I am still doing some formatting edits as you will have seen!!

Thanks

go nuts, if it's working, keep at it, it's looking like I will not have any spare time soon to be working on any migration plans or testing.

and as mentioned, all content is welcome, just try not to get too carried away with formatting.

Seems like some recent maintenance did wonders... or am I the only one that noticed?

Have any of you Knights ever wondered why the glass saw on the Rescue Tool is called the disc-saw?    :think:
It always seemed a really weird name to me!

I think I have asked the question here and also dug around on the internet - But never got a good answer.

So I did the obvious thing and went and asked Victorinox via a 'Contact Us' on their website.
Local guys were not sure, but suspected a translation error!!
So they checked with Ibach and this is the case - Wow - Probably an error that has been around/uncorrected for 10+ years  :o
They said the correct name of the tool should be "shatterproof glass saw"
I'll update the Wiki

Was just looking in the Wiki and thought it would be super handy to have a link from the tools detail pages to the models that contain that tool.

For example, if I was trying to find all the models that have the metal saw/file, I could go to that tool page, and see the Ranger and all the other tools I don't know about

You mean like this ......     :o 

Yes mate this is coming as a new section for each page

It's currently there for pliers, altimeter, and chisel etc

You can also kinda get to this information by clicking the back-links button (see arrow)  - But you have to be logged on as a user to see this

PS. ... Re Tools to Models

We have this already for the Wenger and Vic 130mm Rangers
And also for the 111mm range
See respective pages.

As well as the back-links - We also have it for the 91s - But only by layer - So not too convenient 

Anyway as mentioned it's coming for the 91/84mm tools - as per the Chisel page above.
