I was mainly just asking because I saw it coming up on the available list and remembered it being claimed, albeit with a contingency.

I will put up a new PIF.
A Wenger Soldier/Stanard Issue.
Offer#1 Produced in the early 1970's, this Wenger Soldier model sports the old style cross on its scales, plus it has the Waffen Kontrol stamp. The finish on the scales is in excellent shape; so, this would make a great display knife. The blade had some tip damage and has been dressed accordingly. When the knife is closed, you can't tell unless you know what you are looking for. This one has been in my permanent SAK collection but I plan to replace it with an earlier model. I just have to figure out where I put it.
Offer#2 Produced in 2004; the last year before Victorinox took them over.
Although the knife is not in perfect shape, it's close. There might be some minor scratches on the blade (I'll check) and there is a super small nick on one scale. Even I have to search for it. I was planning to keep this one for my Soldier/SI collection but I can get another.
The plan is that I will keep one and the other will become a PIF. Your choice. Will ship for free within the US.
Round two for the Endura!!!!!! I told myself I would use the fool out of it, if I was going to claim it!
And round three from this afternoon. I hung a great one that REALLY put it to work!
LOL. If it was the black beauty, it would be in my permanent knife collection. I've been searching for years The nearest I have found is a black Pioneer with a red shield. The true Alox Soldier knife was issued in red or silver. No other colorsWhat color is that Wenger soldier? Might be able to recruit a participant for the thread if it's black

Man that little thing looks sweet! I accept your offer man. Let me get your info and I can send it out to you either tomorrow or Friday. My email is minirehak at hotmail.comOK Minirehak212 bro, that Ruike P801 is still calling my name. I would like to give it a try if you accept my PIF offering. Excuse the hideous lighting in my house, like seriously everything is always dark, but I submit a small fixed blade a CRKT Side Hawg 3.

Not against the tuff lite, just not sure the skeletool covers it.
I do have a little remington baby stockman somewhere... let me try and dig that out tomorrow and I'll get back to you on the tuff lite.
Is there a desire for altoids tins in this thread at all? I know they hold some value to the bushcraft crowd. I like altoids and bushcraft so I bought a bulk pack of breath mints and now have half a dozen or so too many altoids tins (or other shapes of tins), at least until I finish the other five tins of mints. I could be persuaded to leave some mints in one too if you want to snack before using it for storage if you like altoids and the tins. I feel like this was a lot of talk about candy and their packaging.
I think he's completely inactive on the forum at this point. No idea what happened there.Cereal killer update?
That Ang Khola is awesome, but I don't know if I have anything of similar value to offer up....
Hey Smith, what type of rust are we talkin about on the blade? Any chance you can get a pic posted of it? I'm interested in claiming this one if it's not too bad.Thank you, I just pulled out the wave and realized it has some rust spots on the main blade..because of this I am going to withdraw myself..that AFCK is a valuable knife and I don’t have anything for a comparable offering... I have also already participated once so will leave that goodness for the next interested person, I am sure it will go quick..
No use for altoids tins for me.
100% interest in seeing these come back.
Hey, I don't mean to bug you on this but do you accept my Link as an offering for the leatherman? I know you were busy with that Rat thing and probably glanced over what I posted.Decided to just go for the tech tool, I just don't see using the mini tuff and I would gift it to someone else, might as well keep it up here for someone to claim, IMO. PM sent.
Offering a used leatherman skeletool. Some marks on the driver bits and blade but in good condition, nothing that would affect the uesfulness of this tool. Just never found myself using it much over the more portable SAK's. I'm also going to through in 3 altoids tins with anyone that want any of my other PIF's.
I also decided to throw in the little remington stockman I have. It's far too small for me and I received it in a lot purchase of other traditionals. If you have a use or it, great. Some rust on the blades and back of spring but the blades are in decent shape overall. Scales are in good shape. The handle is just over 2.5" so pretty close to the size of a peanut I think.
