I know..., I know, who gives a crap about the Swiss Army junk, right?? I just hope I don't get kicked off of here. I had an opportunity to pick up these 3 (all MIB's!) and couldn't pass it up. I got them all out and started playing with them and they do some amazing stuff! A lot of things I hadn't realized.

I am also into watches and the one with the watch on the front is really cool, a cross-over for me and no longer made. Out of production for some time now.

As mentioned, all are new in the boxes with all paperwork!









The bottom one is a Limited Edition, commemorating their 100th anniversary. What, maybe only 4 or 5 other manufacturers can make the same claim?

Any other fans out there?

Edit: Before someone points it out. the top one is a Wenger. The one with the logo of a cross in a square. The Victorinox have the cross in the shield.


Please, post 'em up!

Man, everybody loves Swiss Army Knives! I just got a trio of them myself, to my mailbox not an hour ago!
Yours are awesome, do you know which models these are? I have never seen the one with the watch in it, that's just classy!

I got new Escorts for my girl and I, "Little My" for her and "Moominpapa On Guard" for me as well as a new Super Tinker, "Moominpapa in the Garden" to go along with the "Moominpapa and the Lighthouse Keeper" Camper. Totally stoked on these, and want to complete the collection as a lot of them got discontinued.

Same here, just got into them and have been reading about no other knives but SAKs for the last three or four days! It's a great endeavor.

Case, Buck, Opinel, Morakniv, Böker, PUMA, Otter Messer, Russell Green River, Utica, A few under new ownership and management after bankruptcy sales (Schrade, Camillus, and Queen/Queen City among others), Colonial(?) I'm pretty sure Old Hickory was brought to market before 1922. Was Ka-Bar WW1 or WW2?
I'm not sure which of the old Sheffield brands are still making knives. I believe a couple of them go back to the 1700's.
Contract manufacture would include Remington, for at least 80 or 90 years. If I remember right, Remington only made knives inhouse for around 8 or 10 years.
 
Pretty sweet finds! Love my tinker. I don’t carry. A lot cause I normally carry a leatherman. But if I didn’t, I would.
