A Lumberjack and a Walker

 

[David Nowlin]

whats the difference? Never understood the reason a knife called the walker would have a saw blade? And wouldn’t a Lumberjack have his own saw and axe and other tree felling tools and equipment?

Using my Pioneer i kept getting the nail nick side wrong after all these years a muscle memory issue.
So i compared with my Champion plus and it’s not the same. Same size just nail nick on opposite side? I found this interesting.

The Lumberjack is older with no scale tools and an economy shield. The new version is called a Walker because Victorinox was targeting the hiker market at the time with this light weight handy tool.
Fun fact, In Australia where im from we go bush walking not hiking.

Ref: "Bush Walking"... I like that term. I live in the USA and sometimes refer to my trail trips/day hikes as "Woods Walking".
