My Victorinox Swiss Army Knives. Mostly in 74mm and 91mm but in other sizes as well. Vintage ones and modern ones, with cellidor scales or wood, stainless steel, alox or other exotic materials.
Some of these knives have been sold.
This is my third fourth Swiss Army Knife made for KulturGut AG, related to my Bavarian Palace Department Spartan, my Bayerischen Schlösserverwaltung Huntsman and my Kaiserburg Spartan (I just realised I bought that Kaiserburg one a year ago). All four of those SAKs have a similar, but not identical laser etching on the blade. This […]

Here’s a nice Victorinox Tinker. It has special soft grip scales with a Wabenmuster (honeycomb) design in black/gray. I think the scales are actually cellidor with some kind of rubbery coating. Victorinox introduced the soft grip scales in 2009 with the Climber Road Tour. I think this Tinker, along with a ruby soft grip Spartan,

This is a rather fancy Victorinox Ambassador (or Windsor) with diamond cut gold plated scales. I already had one of these in used condition, but this one is actually brand new. It has an embossed Swiss shield on the front, no scale tools and no keyring. This luxury model (0.6500.88) came in a nice burgundy

This Spartan features a nice scale design matching the website and other promotional material used for the Victorinox I.N.O.X. watches (check out the background used on that site! Same image :) ). I was told this Spartan was only available during the introduction of the I.N.O.X. product line. It’s a bit weird, using a rusty

Here is another Camper with stag horn scales. It’s a bit older than the stag horn Camper I posted before. This one has three exposed rivets instead of two. The middle pin is less oxidized than the outer (brass) ones so I guess it’s made of nickel silver. Other nice features of this knife are

This is a Victorinox Windsor with the UBS logo. The three keys were also used for the logo of the SBC (Swiss Bank Corporation). The merger forming UBS took place in 1998 and this knife may or may not be older than that. A different variation of this knife exists with 1872 added to the

This is a pretty unusual SAK. It looks like a Huntsman, but in fact it’s different. I bought it from my friend Marios. On several of my trips to France and Germany, I had seen similar knives but I had never managed to buy one, because these where used as a display piece and were

These Victorinox Huntsman SAKs feature a nice curly scale design. Apparently they were only available at REI.

I bought these two SAKs on a trip to the United States. The one with the stars and stripes scales is a Super Tinker I bought in Portland, Oregon. The Boeing one is a Climber, bought at the Boeing plant in Everett.
I finally found the sixth Ambassador from the RocKnives collection :) It took me a couple of years to find all six:
