hey Jeff I know this is an old video but for future reference wegner would be pronounced vegner because in German the w makes a v sound and some areas of Switzerland also speak German along with French
Archie Samson, below in the comments, points out, the “w” is pronounced “v”. Why cant americans learn to use other people’s languages, and their own if it comes to it, at least semi-properly? And since I’ll probably get abuse for this, get rid of that lazy slurring accent, too.
Very nice vid. I went looking for info on the original swiss army knives and found this vid of yours. Good info, thanks! I wish they had some non collectible versions of this knife.
Every time I search for something knife related (often) I end up on one of your videos. It got to the point where I didn’t even realise I hadn’t subscribed yet! Well I have rectified that.
I have one of these that i found in a tackle box (an original from the time with the circle and Swiss cross on the scale and a clip point blade) and im not sure on how much its worth, ive only seen one online, it was dinged up, a bit rusted with a slightly cracked scale on ebay for 170$, mine is almost like new scales are perfect, with small spots of light surface rust on some of the tools, compared to the one ive found online in its condition i guess it would be worth around 190$-200$ , id love to now how much its actually worth.
come to switzerland and only swiss made stuff (olmost)
Looks like a mix between an Opinel, and a Swiss army knife.

I got a 1945 wenger soldiers knife for my 15th birthday. I think that it’s in great condition, what’s it worth?
I spotted the defect before you pointed it out! Do I get a cookie?

No wonder the Swiss are neutral with these as their only weapons
It’s pronounced, “Venger”, just so you know.
y would they only make 1800 of these??? if they put them into production and put a more realistic price on them they’d make way more money.
It is “can’t”, with an apostrophe, PerrLeo748.
Thank you for the blueprint *Dear China…*

Yo dawg, i put a box in your box, so you can unbox while you unbox!
Man, that’s nice!
Too bad it’s made in CHINA.
Beutiful knife, I just saw the video of u swapping out the front scale on the Tinker.
$500.00 for this? Not a user I’m guessing.
That’s not a spey blade, but a spearpoint. I noticed the original you pictured has a clip blade shape… (they don’t all go for $5k)
Victorinox bought Wenger in 2005, and then eliminated the name Wenger in January of 2013.
Thanks for the history lesson. I value this knowledge, and appreciate it.
Which is of higher quality Wenger or Victorinox? Thanks.
The knife looks so nice
Wegner?
this knife is classic. Of course it’s expensive!!
Wenger is pronounced venger
Both is true
Saw it before you pointed it out… I feel good!
THANKS AGAINE. and AGEINE [ENJOYED THE INFO from 14.23 to the END] please do carry on with simelier video.s for the viewers to ENJOY siemion
Good but VERY expensive for a small swiss army knife.

and too be honest it would be criminal not too use a high quality knife like that!!
Wenger > Victorinox
