Aitor youth sentiment

[peterguzzi]

Some 40 years ago I got this aitor knife from my neighbours when they returned from holidays and i lost track of it more or less ( just lying in the cupboard) but today i stumbled on it and googled a bit but could not find it...survival knives, machetes from aitor but not this....have anybody seen it before?

[QUOTE = "peterguzzi, post: 19595192, member: 533117"] Hace unos 40 años recibí este cuchillo aitor de mis vecinos cuando regresaron de vacaciones y perdí el rastro más o menos (solo acostado en el armario) pero hoy me tropecé con él y busqué en Google un poco, pero no pude encontrarlo ... cuchillos de supervivencia, machetes de aitor pero no esto ... ¿alguien lo ha visto antes?

Si me envía una dirección de correo electrónico, puedo enviarle los catálogos antiguos de Aitor.
I already warn you what they are in Spanish

The new multi-usos series is SWEET. Hard to find with locking blade though.

 

[GIRLYmann]

ah, the mainblade has a liner lock...

still find this "hobo-type" with its
folding fork & spoon bladetool sweet...

Whatever it is, I just bought one of these Gigeresque curiosities, NOS.

Such wonderful memories. Many years ago, on my way to Cadiz, on a dark rainy night I had an accident on my Bultaco and lost my very dear Aitor Scout with plastic sheath. They no longer make that knife which is a shame. I’ve looked for it to no avail.

Many years ago, on a foggy night in Sonoma, I ran my roommate’s Metralla into a ditch. I had Bunny Bundschu on the back. The Bultaco survived, as did we all. They no longer make that motorcycle, which is a shame. The few remaining examples are priced well out of my range.

So glad to know Bunny and the ‘Tralla survived..., and you too.

Simple but so useful: ‘70s Aitor Scout.

 

[Boombats]

There's something really appealing about boxy, dorky sheaths. They make me think of Thunderbirds, Gamera or some other vintage Japanese sci-fi adventure stuff.

 

[Boombats]

OK it just arrived and I love it. Pics are from the eBay sale but I'll post my own soon. There's a sharpening stone on the back of the sheath under a rubber flap! The saw back is absolutely savage.

 

[GIRLYmann]

congrats!
awfully sweet.
try pairing

Ehrmahgerd, I need that. I'd definitely like that rhinoceros-shaped skinner with the same grip, like the one on your first post.

The more I look into Aitor, the more I think I had one of their survival knife kits with the slingshot and all. It and the memory if it are lost to the sands of time...

Have you looked at their Vivac model?

kinda similar concept with the extra tools in handle...

 

[mendezj]

Nice. Thank you. Just ordered one. I still wish I could find a nos Scout, though.

Note: Aitor had a bankruptcy a few years back and a lot of their stuff was being produced in China.
