Sad news about SAK collector Robert Moix
on:
July 11, 2021, 07:51:00 AM
I'm saddened to learn from his wife that my friend and Swiss Army knife expert Robert Moix from Nax, Switzerland, passed away on July 8, 2021 after a long illness.
Robert was best known in Switzerland as a collector and professional expert on army knives, but also for his social involvement with the elderly and the rescue of young offenders.
Robert had created a very interesting website where he had referenced all the knowledge about the knives of the Swiss soldier that he had gathered throughout his life. This website still exists:
https://www.couteaux-du-soldat-suisse.ch
Robert's passing is a huge loss to the SAK collecting community.
RIP Robert. You will be missed.

I bought a couple of knives from him several years ago, no issues.

Thankk for letting us know JC - That is so sad to hear
RIP Robert
I dealt with Robert a couple of times over the last few years and he was the nicest person to deal with.
And of course the 'Les Couteaux' site is
the
site for Soldier knives .

I'm sorry to say I didn't knew about him and even sorrier for finding out this way. I'll take a look at the site and find out more about him.
