Someone has definitely carried and used that for many years, so it's nice that it's gone to a good home where it will continue to be used and give good service to it's new owner.🙂
It makes me really sad that the new generation of kids don't appreciate tools and pocket knives 🫤 That combined with the nanny states hysterical reaction to anyone carrying a pocket knife, when all the knife crime is committed with chefs knives, cleavers and machete's....SIGH
@@edwardfletcher7790 Not all knife crime is committed with kitchen knives tbh. Just the vast majority of it. Perhaps oddly though, screwdrivers are the second most widely used things in crime. I do however agree with you that pocket knife bans / regulations are somewhat daft because they don't address the problem.
get some Flitz on that gray housing of the magnifying glass. it will probably will restore it and remove that yellowing. I would Flitz everything on that knife and some of those scratches will will come out. Too rare of a knife to not do more restoration on
they can be pretty pricey for ones in great shape and the Canadian Alpineer versions sell for a lot ,only because of the Alpineer scale. Passengers usually start at over $100 for mediocre condition to over $200 for a really great condition one. Almost as stupidly over priced as a Yeoman but Yeoman's were only made for less than 10 years and Passenger's for decades. Any retired models with magnifying glasses are way over priced now and makes no since.
You should give it a good cleaning don't just put it away sand the scales with sum 5and6 thousand grit and make it pretty its a common knife even for the age of it, it's not a collector piece why not,🇺🇲😎🙏 great vid
the SAKWIKI is incorrect about it predating the Explorer. The Explorer came out in 73 when the magnifying glass came out and the inline phillips screwdriver. It either came out in 73 which I don't believe the Passenger did , or not too much later in the 70's. Be careful with SAKWIKI there is a bunch of uncorrected misinformation on there. Swiss Army Knights is a usually more accurate resource to find out about older models and their history.
Very interesting. It would be nice if Victorinox would do a yearly vault pattern like Case. There’s some really cool discontinued patterns.
That would be cool!
That Orient Bambino looks good! Just the type of watch an SAK fan would have in the collection.
Thanks Thomas
Very cool! Thanks for sharing this older model with us! Great toolset.
Thanks for watching!

Very true!

Morning
This is an excellent model, it's very annoying that Victorinox don't add the inline philips to more models !
100%
