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 nice set was bought in the Victorinox Brand Store in Paris. It’s a special edition “Nature Series” set, made for the French market, consisting of a lime green Camper and Classic.

I recently visited the Victorinox Brand Store in Paris, France. I had a little chat with the (very friendly) Victorinox people and, of course, I had to buy a couple of SAKs, like this nice Spartan with a picture of the Eiffel Tower on the front.

Earlier this year Victorinox introduced the Tomo, a new model based on the popular Classic. The Tomo is designed by Kazuma Yamaguchi (Abitax) and comes in a range of bright colors. There is also a (white) pouch available. I really like the packaging which is made from recycled material, a bit like an egg carton.
This is a Victora stamped Champion. It was probably known as model number 146 fmaU at that time (around the 1970s). Notice the long nail file on the back which shares its layer with the scissors. I also have the exact same model but with the triangular awl.

This is a very nice, special edition Swiss Army Knife. It is basically a Cadet with translucent rose colored cellidor scales. It was introduced in, I think, 2007 and it was aimed at the European market. It is one of the very few cellidor models without any backside tools.

This is a Spartan SAK with a pretty cool “Tool Evolution” logo. This logo was also used on t-shirts, playing cards and other Victorinox items. It’s a pretty high resolution image with lots of detail. I have also seen Climbers with the same logo. This Spartan came in a nice gift tin.

These ones have been on my wanted list for quite some time and I finally managed to buy them at a reasonable price a couple of weeks ago :) Both sets contain five 74mm Ambassador knives with a key ring and special scale designs. These SAK’s are relatively rare so I am very happy I

This is an even older predecessor of the current Spartan model. It was made in the 1950s and it was probably known as model 234. It has a shackle (or bail) instead of a key ring, the older, triangular type reamer and a clip point small blade. Note the exposed rivets.

Here is another Victorinox Windsor. It is basically the same model as the Windsor shown before, except this one has a different scale design.
