It seems the newer Swiss Army knives are quite easy to find, but I'd like to add some of the older ones to my collection, made before they started using the modern shield. We're talking at least pre-1992 here.
I really don't want mint-in the box, as I can't afford that. Any condition is OK, even if it's missing the toothpick and tweezers. But, I do not want any with oversharpening, bent tools/blades, or broken blade tips.
I'm looking for any older Swiss Army knives , but especially these.
Automobile (called Motorist here in America).
Older Fieldmasters, in other words those with the old logo, different Phillips Head screwdriver, and sans multipurpose hook
Soldier with red Alox handles and keyring, and sharpened inside bottle opener. I already have one, but I want another I can carry, as the one I have was my great-grandfather's and I'm afraid I'll lose it.
Soldiers meant to be issued to any military worldwide.
