NOTE: Downsizing again. Mot moving soon, but it is coming. I won’thave room for all of my SAKs, so I must reluctantly sell some ofthem. This knife is from my collection.
Offeredhere are a SwissChampand a Classic. Both are unusual in that ihey have the Victorinox “world” logoinstead of the usual cross. Knives with this logo were produced forsale in countries where the Helvetic cross was unpopular or banned bylaw. Both are grade B.
TheVictorinox SwissChampis not the large...st Swiss Army Knife, but it comes close. It is thestandard length (3.5 in. /91 mm) with seven layers of tools. It hasalmost everything Victorinox ever put into an SAK. I’m not goingto try to list them all here – it’s worth a trip tovictorinox.com to see the many things built into it and where theyput them all.
TheClassicis a small (2.25"/58 mm) knife with a knife blade, scissors, nail file with cleaner, tweezers, toothpick, and key ring.
Iam primarily a collector, but searching for new and unusual modelsoften brings me duplicates and perfectly useful knives that I cannotkeep. I share these on eBay. I classify knives by conditionaccording to the scale below.
