 :iagree:

I wish Victorinox would go back to doing this type of elaborately detailed stainless inlays. Especially on black/ABS scales.

 :iagree: Especially today, with the visually appealing ones.

I suppose cost and the ability print means we won’t see beauties like yours or the battle series inlays again.

The best Victorinox inlay in my opinion. Have all this series knives NIB but couldn't resist and bought one more :)

The boxes are nice. And there’s also the ‘84 84mm.

I also have a loose Champion somewhere.  :dunno:

Are those 1884/1984 images inlays?    ??? 

I have one - on a 95ish Woodsman - But it is a print   :(

If it is an inlay - Fantastic - Jealous!!

All inlays. One part that impressed me on the 58mm is how big it is compared to the knife/scale.

I don't have the 84mm one.  Lucky you!

Thanks, FB! My understanding is that they aren’t that rare. Or at least I don’t recall trouble finding mine.

EDIT:
Mine is serialized in the 15,xxx range so can’t be very rare and I think 30k is the range?

Also found the hat/lapel pin which matches the ‘84 logo. Not sure if it was sold then, but sure looks like the same design.

EDIT 2: 
And there are 2 84mm versions (at least). Tinker and Tourist.

There's something special about this Confoederatio Helvetica "Lizard Men" inlay. Does anyone see what it is?

I think I remember seeing that! It's always fun to find out which MTo user is who on Facebook/eBay/whatever :P

But did you notice what's so special about the SAK I showed? :pok:

An inlay I like, from my auxiliary-collection, CS collection, sub-collection?  I don't know how to give Karl proper credit when posting knives that came from him:

Do you have full set? (picture by Kosmo from MTO)

How rare are those Executives? Our Wiki doesn't show it, and the only reason I know it exists was someone here mentioned it when I got my Helevetica Huntsman.

Correct, it's not part of the set. I'm guessing it's some sort of prototype. I've never seen another one, just the one I have.

Yes, I have a full set, including the Spartan (https://vicfan.com/2020/11/victorinox-1291-1991-spartan-william-tell/)



And that pic you posted is mine, not Kosmo's! Check here: https://vicfan.com/2014/06/victorinox-confoederatio-helvetica-classic-sd-ambassador-and-huntsman/

It's an Ambassador actually :)
I'd say very rare. Never seen another one. I'm thinking prototype :think:

The metal inlay is larger that the 58mm version. When I bought it, I thought it was just the 58mm inlay used on a 74mm knife. But nope!

Actually, I've got more that a complete set plus a 74mm. There's also this unusual Sportsman that is technically NOT part of the set:



With music cassette :)

But it's off topic, it's not an inlay :dunno:
