They are not called the Gardener but there is a whole series called Grafting knives.I've not owned one but they are meant to be good like every other SAK.

chisel ground?

 

[rev_jch]

yes, its a good little knife and cheap! The blade is a conventional v-grind.

Actually there are two gardeners the first one mentioned. And a special run for smoky:

Here is the description from victorinox:

Some knife dealers call the gardener a grafting knife, and it is part of the grafting line by victorinox, but its name is the gardener.

I wondered about the grind since I've seen "left-handed" versions. Chisel grind would have made sense to that. Maybe there were different versions, or is it just what side the nail is on nick or something?

 

[rev_jch]

Well, its just the basic grind, but it works really well. And its nice and "hefty" so its made to be a heavy user. I paid maybe 11 dollars for it? Well worth the money!
