New Seoul, ROK Victorinox Store thread

bren10man · **on:** February 17, 2009, 05:32:53 PM

Folks:

Original thread is now 7 pages long. So, I decided to start a new one.

1. I just e-mailed Felinvet pics and description of items I will be sending soon to him. Those who get these items WON'T be disappointed!!! Items are either NIB old stock, or new in sheath/scabbard. I will let Felinevet handle the process of notifying who gets what. This will take several months to get all the items. However, as a hint, 11 SAK's will be going to Felinevet over the next several days if all goes as planned.
I could buy more, but hey!!! I have a new born, I gotta eat, and I get first digs at the discovered booty at the store!! (i.e. I bought a 2008 made Ranger with Camping logo on the scale). I DID ask if he had a Space Shuttle or Master Craftsman....he does not...

2. Here are pics I took today. Have fun figuring out what is what like on the other thread. MOST of these items are for sale, some are "..so sorry, discontinued, collector only!!"

3. The Classic series you see, he HAS sets for sale. Price: 95,000 Korean won per set. Today's rate is 1450 won to the $1 U.S.

Have fun!!!!

I can only dream of turning the corner and walking into something like that.All that delicious eye candy can give a SAKoholic the equivalent of diabetes

That is EXACTLY how I found this store. I literally was walking down a section of Namdaemun Market that I had never been down before, going to another store to buy SAK's (haven't been back since, I wonder why?!?!?!), and WHAM!!! Here is this one. I have lost count how much $$$ and SAK's I have bought there in the past month.

Does that last pic show a SwissFlame/CampFlame? If so, double dibbs!

Swiss Flame!!! Pic is not as focused as I would have liked.....

If you look at the pic with the 2x plain edged baker's knives with the white scaled Traveler to the left of them, to the lower middle of the pic, and somewhat cut-off, you will see a better focused pic of the one and only and not for sale Swiss Flame he has.

The other store I was going to when I stumbled upon this one, that is the store I bought the Swiss Flame a few weeks ago. I have already posted pics of it. No, it does not work...DRAT!!!

This shop is amazing.

I want to thank you for sharing this place with us and enable us to buy saks from there. I am sure the 11 knives you sending will get a very happy homes

(I hope one of them will go to my place...)

Nope. I do not think I have even seen a Wenger for sale...maybe a Swiss Grip or two at a camping/mountainering store, and that is it.
