So I've got this Swiss army knife,
It's pretty old and I believe it's an older fisherman model, but I want to identify the year.
I've attached photos, shoot us a message if you can help.
Cheers

here's the thing, there is no certainty
in nailing down the exact year of manufacture. since victorinox
doesn't stamp markings which
denotes year of manufacture,
except those found on the main
blade of swiss issued knives.
however, all is not lost.
you can refer to the site below
for some indication in estimating
the time frame concerning
certain key SAK production features..

your fisherman doesn't have a bail
but a slit key ring which came about in 1968.
imo, it's likely something from circa 1980's on.
