Here is another nice 74mm Victorinox Swiss Army Knife with the world logo. This logo is used in some countries instead of the shield and cross for religious reasons. Knives with this logo are fairly hard to get. I do have a black Executive and a red SwissChamp with leather sheath as well. I’ve also …
I really like the 74mm line of Victorinox Swiss Army knives. My EDC is a black cellidor Executive, but this one is an Ambassador which has only one layer and fewer tools. Usually, Ambassadors come with cellidor scales but other materials have been available as well, like the RocKnives, gold scales and mother of pearl. …
This is a rather fancy Victorinox Ambassador with diamond cut gold plated scales. I already had one of these in fair 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 gift box.
I finally found the sixth Ambassador from the RocKnives collection :) It took me a couple of years to find all six:
A nice trio of commemorative Swiss Army knives with Confoederatio Helvetica 1291-1991 inlays. A Classic SD, an Ambassador and a Huntsman. I already had a Huntsman like it (except this one is mint), and I had seen pictures of the Classic SD as well. But the middle one is uncommon if I am correct. It’s …

Latest additions to the 74mm family: a yellow Executive with an Emmentaler logo and a black Ambassador sans shield & cross. I am usually not interested in knives with company logos, but I think this yellow one is quite nice. You cannot tell from the pictures, but it looks like the previous owner sanded away …

This Ambassador with keyring was part of Victorinox Collection no. 1., sold between 1989 and 1997. It is listed on EDC Source.
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 another Ambassador from the RocKnives-series: Check out my Rosa Betha model as well :)
In 1988, Victorinox introduced the RocKnives series consisting of 6 Ambassador knives. These knives have polished stone handles from 6 different regions of the world. In 1989, these Ambassadors were followed by matching Bijou (Classic) knives. The scales on this one are made of Rosa Betha granite, from the Italian island of Sardinia. The RocKnives …
