Probably the most well-known size in the Victorinox product range. The 91mm line contains a large number of models and scale colours/designs.
This Climber has a long nail file on the back instead of the multi purpose hook the current Climber model has. It’s an interesting knife: the long nail file is a very old tool and I believe this Climber is the only recent/current model available with the nail file. This model is mentioned in the […]

The Spartan is the standard 91mm knife. It has the basic tool configuration with 2 blades, a can opener, a bottle opener, a reamer/awl, a corkscrew, tweezers and a toothpick. The Spartan comes in a wide range of scale colors, including this camouflage pattern. The Spartan is actually the modern incarnation of the original Swiss

This is a Victorinox Voyager. It adds an electronic clock and an alarm to the popular Climber model. The Swiss shield is actually a button that controls the clock and alarm. The Voyager has plus scales, containing a straight pin and a pen. Usually, the tweezers are in the front scales, but since there is

The (original) Traveller is basically a Climber without key ring. This particular one has the Victorinox shield and cross on the back scale, since there is a metal inlaid company logo on the front. This knife is from before 1985 (because the awl/reamer has no sewing eye). Note the fluted corkscrew and the absence of

This is a Camper that I retrofitted with StayGlow scales. Those greenish-yellow scales are fluorescent which is a nice feature. They actually glow in the dark. Other than that, it’s a regular Camper, just like my green and black ones.

This is a Victorinox Fisherman. It has the Phillips screwdriver instead of the corkscrew and is one of only a few knives that have the fish scaler/hook disgorger tool, which is also a ruler and, apparently, a Halloween pumpkin carver ;) The Fisherman has a metal inlay of a fish on the front scale.

The Victorinox SwissChamp was introduced in 1985 as the premium model in the line-up. It added pliers to the Champion Plus model which had been the biggest Swiss Army Knife before. The SwissChamp is still the biggest regular model, although a couple of even bigger SAKs have been available, like the SwissChamp XLT, XXLT and

Here are a couple of nice Victorinox Spartans :) The 1897-1997 one is a limited edition: the number 32211 is stamped in the corkscrew liner. I also have the 100 years SwissChamp. I have a couple of other non-standard Spartans as well, including some Michel Jordi ones, a blue “Spirit of Greece” model and a

These are a couple of unusual Victorinox SAKs. The SwissFlame adds a butane gas lighter to the Climber model, while the CampFlame adds the lighter and a small screwdriver to the Camper model. The SwissFlame and Campflame models were only manufactured for a couple of years (from 2002 until 2005). They were never for sale
