The Victorinox Signature Lite is basically a Classic SD, but with a retractable ballpoint pen and a small LED light in the scales, instead of the usual tweezers and toothpick. The LED light is activated by pressing (and holding) the Victorinox shield on the front. This particular knife has sapphire scales that are a bit …
It’s almost summer and all the sunny days we’ve had recently prompted me to post some bright, shiny, yellow Swiss Army Knives. Yellow is quite an unusual color in cellidor, even though some yellow 91mm models should be readily available new. 74mm SAKs with yellow scales are fairly rare, while in 58mm it’s one of …
