In the last few weeks I added some new SAK's to my collection and amongst them two red alox models: a Companion and a Secretary. The red Secretary is hard to find these days, it is retired, the current Secretary's are only in silver. So when I saw this red Secretary at a Dutch auction site, I immediately placed a bid and won. No one else was interested in this small two bladed knife, but for me as a SAK enthousiast it is a collectable item. I bought it for 15 euros.

Both are in very good condition and without advertisements printed on the scales or blades. There are a few scratches at the edges of the scales, probably due to being carried and used, but that doesn't bother me very much. Overall they look very good.

Thanks. According to SmartKnives.com the Victorinox retired the Companion in 2009. The red Secretary is also retired, they're only sold in silver alox now.
