Good point. here we go:
Red = Farmer
Then from left to right:
Pioneer, Rancher (I've heard there is a harvester, this with a saw!), Electrician, Cadet (modified by Bob with a saw and brass), Cadet.
Rancher, Electrician, and Pioneer are the same knife with different the different tools you can see pulled out and the pioneer has a key fob attachment, they are all the same as the farmer minus the saw.

honestly that's why i had them out picked up a few over the last few months to try and find the "right one", i should now by now that there is no thing with me and knives but there you go, was trying to decide if I should keep, still, collect or what? might sound obsessive but they don't call us knife nuts for fun i guess 
I do like them a lot.

i can recommend them they are all still easy enough to find other then the red farmer, for reasonable $, the rancher blade I've found much more useful then I'd have thought, you can use that point to cut into something like a box the pull cut with great ease

Hey guys. When I first got into the alox swiss army knives I found this site which showed all the wierd models that were available.

Most of them are long discontinued though but Ive been resurrecting tool combinations I thought were cool. That marlin spike is great for rope or knotwork, but really hard to find now sadly. Im going to have to make up my own sacking needle one of these days to make my own version. I wouldn't say im much of a collector, but I do have a collection of standard pioneers with various colors from Vic.

Vic brought back the marlinspike on a few limited edition expensive models. This one was called the long rancher.
I worked on one for someone else and it got upgraded to this.
That is seriously cool. Nice work.

They need to reintro that one...the Sailor is out again in limited numbers.
I just got a Vic. Mauser back from my dad, gave it to him years ago...lived in his sock drawer.
