Cellidor is one of the most common scale materials. It’s a nice, shiny type of plastic. Cellidor scales will warp/deform when exposed to high temperatures. Be careful when cleaning your SAKs and never throw them in the dishwasher.
Available in a wide range of colors.
This 74mm Victorinox Executive features the newer cross-cut nail file. A while back Victorinox decided to retire the complete 74mm line so these nice knives are becoming harder to find.

Just a nice Victorinox Camper with white cellidor scales and an image of William Tell on the front. This was a custom order for Edelweiss, just like this abstract Spartan. It was actually listed as as Spartan but it turned out to have a wood saw making it a Camper.

This one has been on my wanted list for over a decade. I remember posting a WTB on MTo nine years ago. Also, this. Finally, a few weeks ago I got a saved search notification from eBay for this nice (near mint) one. Shipping took six weeks from Canada to the Netherlands (it was held

A nice Spartan with matte black scales. No idea what the finish is exactly but it looks and feels quite nice. It’s similar but not identical to the 3D haptic scale designs. The golden shield is painted on, not inlaid.

This is an older Victorinox Prince with tortoise-shell scales. In certain markets (e.g. Canada) it may have been sold under the Treasurer name. The scales are made of celluloid which predates the Cellidor material. Celluloid is a plastic containing nitrocellulose and camphor. This material is chemically unstable and has the tendency to deteriorate with age

Years ago Victorinox offered a set of SAKs with pinstripe scales. I believe they where Spartans and they came in blue, red, green, black and pink. I’m still looking for that complete set, but I did manage to find an orange one. Not part of the same set – this one was a custom scale

A nice Victorinox Ranger with part of a map of the surroundings of Ibach and Zürich on the front and the back. I like the green print on the white cellidor scales. The Ranger is a beefy model with five layers and five back side tools, so no “blank” back springs on this SAK.

A nice black Spartan with an unusual front scale. This “Black Topography” SAK was part of the Marlboro Rewards program. Unfortunately the back is just plain black, but the SAK did come in a nice cardboard box with black padding. There is even a listing of all of the Spartan’s functions. The use with care
