Sorry to have missed this one. It looks like a Mid-1940's Huntsman type.

Re: VICTORINOX knives 1884- present SWISS ARMY KNIVES

Here is an interesting collectors piece. It is a Victorinox Camper with special order front scale for the 22nd World Scout Jamboree in Sweden 2011. The scale is printed with a high glossy coating to protect. I am sure these were made in limited numbers but there are no serial numbers, etc. Follow th...

Re: What is this? Unknown symbol help

Well, I never have found out what this symbol means. The Victorinox classic line usually has the logo lined up the same way as the Victorinox shield. Any fresh ideas here?

Nice Mauser Josh. If you run out of room I'll safeguard that one for you. Achtung! You might be mistaking that GAK with the Mauser GAK. The Mauser GAK has a 3rd blade as seen here. The standard 2 blade GAK was made by many different manufacturers, undoubtedly Victorinox models are superior to the r...
