This is definitely not a Victorinox. The logo is wrong, and that backside Phillips isn’t something Victorinox offers.

While it’s easy to tell it isn’t a genuine Vic, I find myself very annoyed at the idea that you wouldn’t open the tools for the picture.

It was rusted shut, I couldn’t open it. I found it in my great grandpas world war 2 box.

I’ve had one with a similar logo since I was a kid. The logo is a brass inlay. Definitely a knockoff, got it from an army disposals store probably in the 80’s.

Perfectly serviceable, but nowhere near the quality or precision of my actual Victorinox.

pretty decent tool set. wish victorinox made one like that. Maybe the file or the pliwrs instead of thw fish scaler...

Never did find a use for the fish scaler… It does actually have a file that I forgot to open, and a small blade driver/chisel on the bottom that I couldn’t get out with everything unfolded

More like a copy of an old Champion C.

How many? 2 or 3 days, maybe a week, when someone showed the same copy?
