Black Victorinox Pocket Pal

[mnblade]

Has Victorinox ever made a Pocket Pal (or similar) penknife with black scales?

Yes. If you search closed auctions, you'll find some.

What's a Pocket Pal? Pictures would help.

I believe the Secretary is the same knife. I was just looking at them online with a silver alox handle. (I'm tempted.) I tend to go with the plastic handles in general for the tweezers and toothpick, but the Pocket Pal has neither; just a slim two blade knife. I was actually looking for the black handled one as you raised my interest.

I recently scored a NOS black Pocket Pal on the big auction site... and didn't have to pay any more than a new red one costs. They currently only come in red.

A red PP has been my main/most carried EDC of the last 20+ years. IMHO it's the best pocket knife made, for the money.

Here's a quick pic of my Patriot showing the reverse side...

Be aware that the current Cellidor-handled Pocket Pal is downright portly when compared to the Alox Secretary...

I have a secretary, and my daughter has a pocket pal. The secretary is way too thin, and painful on the hand, when using it very much. Get the celiodor, if you want a edc user.

My black pocket pal is my toolbox knife, for over 25 years!

I found a red one at a yard sale two weeks ago. I passed on it because it was really beat up. I'm more interested in the cadet these days anyway.

Good luck finding one

Picked this one up in the market a few months back, haven't really done anything with it



Likewise, this Elinox

You don't even need to open the blades on the secretary. The handle is thin enough to slice through most materials.

Nice finds!
