1977-1980 Vintage VICTORINOX Spartan/Hiker Canada Series 1 D-5150 / 5151 Rare

A few decades ago, a Canadian wholesaler commissioned a very special, very limited series of Victorinox SAKs known retrospectively as the first Canada Series or Canada Series 1. Distinct from their actual Victorinox model names, the knives are known by their inlays as the Scouter (actually a Recruit), the Hiker (actually a Spartan), and the Alpineer (actually a Passenger). They are rare to find today in any condition as, judging from their correct original boxes, they date to the late 70's or early 80's. Well-carried examples of the Scouter seem to appear most frequently But finding NOS specimens is virtually unheard of.
