I don't know if it has its own thread, but the general topic has been discussed before.The SAKs are now branded as Victorinox (possible exception the Executive 81) and called the "Delmont Collection".They are really hybrids now, incorporating some Vic tools (can opener, reamer, T&T) and scale attachment method.

The excellent 85mm Wenger blade shape was retained and the Vic can opener and awl are welcome upgrades. The three+ layer 85mm Delémonts have become the next best things to the lamented equivalent Vic 84mm series.

However in 2005 Victorinox took over Wenger, but ran the two companies completely independently, with separate product lines, for several years. In 2014 Victorinox merged the two product lines, making Victorinox the sole manufacturer of Swiss Army Knives once again, although they decided to continue manufacturing some of the former Wenger knives under the Victorinox 'Delémont' brand (see Wiki pages).
