Wenger 1950 Swiss Army Soldier knife- used, vintage #7133

MODEL DESCRIPTION: The Victorinox 100mm fiber Soldier Swiss Army knife was standard issue for Swiss soldiers from 1898 to 1950. It was a hefty tool, designed for hefty farmers and workers with hefty fingers. The springs are very strong, and you may need to use pliers to open them (and a towel to protect your fingers).

The 1950 Soldier knife is 100mm (4") long and 23mm (7/8") thick. It weighs about 122.5 grams (4.3 oz). This link has more info about our used knife grades. They are much more expensive. The item "Wenger 1950 Swiss Army Soldier knife- used, vintage #7133" is in sale since Saturday, August 31, 2019.
