Hi to all members I’ve been lurking around the forum for years and have used your great knowledge to put together my current collection.
Up to now most was put away but over the last few days I’ve been sorting and displaying in one of my toolboxes, being as most are Victorinox I would like to share a few pictures here.
I look forward to participating on the forum more over time.
Happy to answer any questions
Cheers Paul

Thanks guys, I did not realise what I had in total until I sorted them out.
Now I know how members here get the impressive collections they put together.
It’s a bit harder for me to get hold of some of the knives I would like as I’m located in Perth Australia and have to rely on the net for acquiring most of  the knives.

Very nice Paul! :like: :tu: :tu:

I found this about it:

https://swissotelathome.com/en/victorinox-knife

"Swissotel has partnered with Victorinox, the largest pocket
knife manufacturer in the world, for a bespoke ‘Spartan’ model –
the original officer’s knife of the Swiss army. Our version has
a typical ‘sgraffito’ design – a Swiss graphic element included
on the facades of houses in the Engadine in eastern Switzerland
that dates back to the 16th century. With this design, Swissotel
links a very old and traditional pattern to a Swiss icon using a
modern application technique."

Very nice Paul! :like: :tu: :tu:

I found this about it:

https://swissotelathome.com/en/victorinox-knife

"Swissotel has partnered with Victorinox, the largest pocket
knife manufacturer in the world, for a bespoke ‘Spartan’ model –
the original officer’s knife of the Swiss army. Our version has
a typical ‘sgraffito’ design – a Swiss graphic element included
on the facades of houses in the Engadine in eastern Switzerland
that dates back to the 16th century. With this design, Swissotel
links a very old and traditional pattern to a Swiss icon using a
modern application technique."
Thanks Vicman for the link, I remember looking it up a few years ago but totally forgot what the link to the Swissotel was.

Thanks Kamakiri
I’m a total watch nut have been for twenty years so my all time favourites are the Wenger Minathor toolbox. I’ve been lucky to get a few at a good price over time.

Nice.  :tu:

That’s exactly why I asked. Figured it would be something cool. And guessed you wouldn’t only have one.  :D

It’s also great to see another former lurker. I checked in here for a couple of years before even signing up. And then I think waited almost a full year after that for my first post. All downhill from there.  :rofl:

I don’t know you, but I can tell you fit right in!  :salute:
