Great idea for a thread, Max! I have a Survival kit that I bought brand new back in the day. My sales receipt is dated Aug 15, 1989, in fact. I no longer have the Swiss Champ...One of these days I should pick up a replacement specimen of the same vintage I suppose. I'll dig up my Survival kit today and post some pictures. Myron
...Great write up.
You need at least one SwissChamp in your life sir_mike.
I have the older kit too, but my side compartiments are held closed by velcro rather than loops.The storage liners appear to be more rigid too.Maybe my sheath is the version B variant?
Looking forward to seeing how the restoration goes, Max! 30+ differences? Oh dear. You've got your work cutout for you indeed.
Is there a number stamped on the back of yours Mechanickal? Mine is stampedMod.dep.4.0567
Did I say 30?...Sorry, I meant 60 differences
Now that is thorough!!!!! :hats offBut now you totally need to explain this ruler error on the newer SwissChamp. Is this like a known thing?
