EDC - What's in Your Pocket(s)??

The number is year it was produced. Numbered blades only officially appeared on the soldier model, as required by the Swiss Military contract. However surplus numbered blades were used the following year on models that have the same size blade like your pioneer, the farmer, electrician, ect. So your knife was actually made in 2008. These year stamped blades are hard to find and sought after by collectors. The silver alox soldier was discontinued in 2008. It is one of my favorite knives. Get another while they are cheap. Type in Victorinox alox soldier on ebay. The alox farmer is also great.

Jackman, thanks! I wasn't actually sure if it's the same thing, exactly because of the cross and the ring. I'll know now. :)

Btw, mine has "07" on the blade.. what's that? Date of other sort?
 
Thank you again for the info!
I'll propably get another one.. Weird really, because I ordered farmer at local jewelry shop and those showed up. I said it's fine, because that's the model I was after in the first place. :p
 
Besides my handkerchief, I have a PocketTool X Piranha in my coin pocket, Charles May FireAnT and Maratacc AA flashlight in my front right pocket and Vox Ti credit card holder in my left front pocket.

Hey Ben , yes I made them sometime last year , the included G10 just didnt do it for me so I bought a sheet of G10 and went to work , took me a few hours for a few nights to finish them , only did it on one side though , left the other side neeked. :D Grip is better and I really dig how they look , one fellow forumite said they looked like Godzillas skin. :D

Tostig

Yeah, I thought they were some kind of leather I think that would be pretty sweet.
