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 unusual scales. They are cellidor with a hot stamped shield (not a metal inlay) and a couple of Swiss flags and edelweiss flowers printed on them. Switzerland is printed in 4 different languages. These climbers were a special order for Migros, a large Swiss supermarket/wholesale chain. Update: this SAK has found a

You can never have too many Climbers :) The SilverTech scales on this Swiss Army Knife were introduced in 2009 (I believe). They are colorless translucent cellidor scales that are painted silver on the inside, giving the scales a high tech, polished steel look. While they look pretty futuristic, I haven’t decided if I like

More StayGlow scales! The Climber is (was?) one of only a few models available with glow-in-the-dark StayGlow scales. You can see the pins and bushes through the scales, unlike my StayGlow Camper. A bit odd, that :)

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 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.
