Victorinox Late 80's Climber Knife

The Victorinox Climber Swiss Army Knife is one of the most popular of the standard-size models.

Most of the Climber knives we see are either the modern Climber or the original Climber from the 1980's, but a small percentage are transitional knives with some, but not all of the changes.

In 1987, Victorinox switched from a plain awl to one that included a sewing eye. Climbers manufactured between 1987 and 1990 still had three vintage features-- a grooved corkscrew, scissors attached with a screw, and a plain back with no hook.

This variation of the Climber is fairly common, so we sell it at only a slight premium over the standard Climber knives.

Late 80's Climber knives are standard sized Swiss Army knives (3 1/2" / 91mm). They contain the following tools:

• Large Blade
• Small Blade
• Can Opener with Small Screwdriver
• Bottle Opener with Large Screwdriver
• Scissors with Screw
• Corkscrew with Grooves
• Awl
• Toothpick
• Tweezers
• Key Ring
