SAK emblem question

[catfish579]

Hello everyone! I have come across a spartan in a yellow celluloid handle. Yellow being one of my favorite handle colors, I couldn't resist purchasing one. On the picture by the dealer I noticed that the emblem is on the other side of the handle where the nail nick for the short blade is. Upon arrival I noticed the item matched the picture. I have only come across SAK's with the logo on the other side where the nail nick for the large blade is. I haven't found or seen anything explaining why this is the case so I wonder if this just something Victorinox decided to do or if the dealer happened upon some cosmetic errors. I believe it to be genuine from the emblem, stamping, and quality, but I was wondering if good people's experience and wisdom here can shed some light on the topic? Thank you all very much for the input to come!

They usually put the shield on that side if a knife is to have something printed on the other side, like an advertising knife.

Interesting! So this was probably something that just never had an advertisement placed on it. Thank you kindly! Learn something new everyday!
