That Hafenpolizei model is great Gluten-free (!)  I love the logo.
Can we put the piccie in the Wiki?  ??? ..... Pretty please?

I guess it is for the German Hafen Polizei - As Switzerland has no Hafens  !!   :D

What model is it please? - Is it a two-layer with openers blade and ?? Phillips? CS?
We don't even have that model in the Wiki - Which is weird as I would have thought that was a standard base mode for the 120s  !!
EDIT: Just checked - It does not seem to be on Smartknives either - Anyone know about this model?  ???

Very nice SQs everyone else - Thanks for posting    :tu:
You can see all the models in the European 2005 catalog I uploaded in the wiki a while back. Pages 20 and 21
2006 catalog pages 23-25
2007 catalog pages 33-35

Just had to post this - May be one of the ultimate Shelf Queens

The photo may be familiar
https://sakwiki.com/tiki-index.php?page=Wenger+United+Woods+-+2013+Limited+Edition

There was a very similar photo there - But it was not symmetrical - So as an OCD badge holder I just had to replace it !
You can see the other one in the gallery - If you wanna check!!

Oh - and the layout matches the internal layout - as a final piece of OCDness!!

Of course you are free to use this picture (or any of my pictures) for the Wiki!

But the knife itself is not a rare model, it's a Ranger 05 (blade, saw, openers, reamer, corkscrew).

And it was a Swiss Hafenpolizei, not German. Switzerland may not have sea beaches and harbors, but they do have rivers and lakes ;)

This knife was made for the Hafenpolizei of the Basel-Landschaft Canton (one of the member states of the Swiss Confederation).

Ah - Thanks for the permission GF - Great
I will credit as "Image courtesy of glenfiddich1983 from MTo" - Unless you say otherwise   :tu:

And very interesting about the Swiss Hafen Polizei - I guess there are a few big lakes in Switzerland - eh?
I've even sailed on one last year (Lucerne)

Hmm just checked out Basel-Landschaft - No lakes and apart from a few km of the Rhine not much water
That's a very speSmurfpillsed group!!
I wonder how many of those SAKs they made?  ???  - 3   :rofl:

It's probably a couple of (small?) harbors on the Rhine that they controlled, I guess.

EMZ wrote last year (in reply to my post in the "What's your latest SAK" thread) that he thought the unit had about 10 officers.

I bought mine from a Swiss collector that was downsizing his collection, and I remember he told me that only 3 or 4 of these knives were made.

I was wondering if anything like this existed...

Interesting construction with parts spanning decades.

I always thought if one was to be found, it would be c.'73 construction.

Hey, it’s fairly rare and unique  - I like this tool very much
