Nice. What is the model?
I believe it is the "One Hand Trekker", item 54884. The box and "instructions" doesn't list the model, but according to the website photos I believe that is the one I got. The photo I posted is from their website. I was working with a young man that was also a member of the Swiss Army and was looking at their selection at the company store and he told me this is the one they are issued in the military.
Not sure I like the main blade's serration at the tip, most knives I've had that have partial serration have it at the base and a smooth blade at the tip. I'll carry it around for a while and see if I like it, but it is a good well made Victorinox.
While I'm thinking about it, does anyone know what that little blade on the back that only opens 90 degrees (shown open about 70 degrees) is for? I've looked online and haven't found anything. (EDIT - found it, "REAMER W/SEWING EYE". Okay then...
)
Thanks. I'll check it out.
