VICTORINOX knives 1884- present SWISS ARMY KNIVES

[LDF Knives]

I have a lady's executive Swiss from Precise 1982-83 in my LDF Knives (AAPK) all Original, take a look and tell me about this one! would love to hear a story on this, Thanks!

I have 2 knives, they both have Buck on the handle, Wenger on the blade. my best research makes me think they are a Wenger Odyssey. One has a cork screw and one has a Phillips screwdriver. I believe they were manufactured from 1991 to 1998. Would these be considered Swiss Army knives?

Post pictures of them if you would, with blades open and blades closed. That will really help people to give you more definitive answers.

I don't know how I missed that one, Tom. It's a really sweet SAK!

I just got my Victorinox Spartans together for a group photo.

Love all the ones with the American flag handles.

[Dan In MI]

The American flag design is printed over blue scales. I've seen photos of a few that have been carried, and of course, the print wears off. Mine is extremely unlikely to see carry for that very reason.

This is Not my knife.

Hi SAK Fans,

I ran across one of these on eBay and just thought I'd show it for posterity reasons. Guess this one is a true "Pen Knife".

It's called Swiss Pen or SwissPen X1 & there is also a Video about them on YouTube.

Here it is, also found a picture of one in red. The one in the Video is black.

Add: It also has a red light that is activated by pressing on the cross emblem for whatever that's good for.

Wow Tom that is quite the contraption! I can't imagine it would be much good for writing more than a quick note, it's gotta be quite top heavy with the blades/scissors on the end like that. I myself struggle to write with top heavy pens. Still a pretty cool novelty piece though for the collector.

Recently, this pocket knife arrived in a group of pocket knives that I bought. However, this particular pocket knife was NOT the objective of my purchase. It is a VICTORINOX, one blade, four tools (scissors, file, pick and tweezers), 2 1/4" closed, one tang stamp, advertising pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says "VICTORINOX (over) SWITZERLAND (over) STAINLESS (over) ROSTFREI" It advertises PEPSI and has a 100% complete, intact, PEPSI logo on the handle. It is in EXCELLENT condition. It did not need any cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

Found a cool Victorinox SA yesterday at an antique market. It combines my love of Audio with Knives. They even threw in the sheath for free..

Thanks. That has proved to be a good watch.

Recently, this pocket knife arrived in a group or lot of pocket knives that I purchased. But, this particular pocket knife was NOT the target of my purchase. However, it did turn out to be a keeper. It now becomes my latest example to be posted under this topic or thread and to be added to my general pocket knife collection. It is a VICTORINOX, one blade, four tools (scissors, file, pick and tweezers), 2 1/4" closed (not including the ring or loop), one tang stamp, advertising pocket knife. The main blade front tang stamp says "VICTORINOX (over) SWITZERLAND (over) STAINLESS (over) ROSTFREI" On the handle it says "DISABLED AMERICAN VETERANS" and the lettering is 100% complete and intact. It is in EXCELLENT condition. It did NOT need any cleaning. I took some pictures and here it is.

I look forward to going back through this thread and checking these all out.
For me, I'll start with this one pic. There are a couple drawers you can't see in the pics, but (except for the Wester & Co displayed) these are all Elsener Swchyz or Victorinox stamped knives (and variations of). The Wester & Co being the origin knife, 1st edition Swiss Soldier knife from 1890 (has to be my fav). The bottom tray is all early soldier issue (1908-1950's), the rest are various hand-picked vintagy victorinox pieces, and some new but cool ones too.

I will have some fun sharing these over time, but here ya go!

WOW, these don't show up often, but holy cow.
I have the one shown above, the 1890 Wester & Co , but I just saw two listings on the bay just now, one in NOT fantastic shape asking $2500, and another in rough shape asking $1900. Gonna keep an eye on those to see if there is any exciting action.

Most likely it'll be the thumbs-down, especially if they're auctions that have seen bids. Vintage SAKs can bring insane money.
