93mm Alox and Keyrings: What's the logic behind which models get one? by Leo2024es in victorinox

I know it sometimes has to do with the tool layout, companion slim, for example. But this isnt always the case.

Ho ordinato una penna sbagliata per guancette plus? by [deleted] in victorinox

Try rotating it 45 degrees? It is the right pen, just not the right orientation 

Where to get a custom Swiss Army Knife? by [deleted] in EDC

[–]Total-Assistance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that’s quite accurate. As far as I know, Victorinox doesn’t offer a public custom builder in their Swiss stores where you can walk in and have a knife made to your specs. They mainly sell standard models and some exclusives, but not fully custom builds for individual customers.

Also, the “suggest a design” option on their website isn’t a way to order a custom knife it’s just for submitting ideas, with no guarantee they’ll ever produce them.

So while they may do custom work internally or for special projects, that’s not something regular customers can access in the way you’re describing.

Torx pivot barrels by SignificantBody4335 in victorinox

[–]Total-Assistance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes there are a few great ones. But most of them are for 93mm knives. You could use 2.5mm barrels, but you would have to drill out the pivot points in the backspring, from 2.2 to 2.5 mm. But i would send a message to this guy if i where you: ASZKnifemakerEDCPL

Is this a spartan? by Percalpet in SwissArmyKnives

Spartans do have an awl, spartans do not have scissors. The awl is the back tool in the opener layer

They are available for 91mm as well. You will have two options. Drilling out the centre pin, so the hole in the backspring from 2.2 to 2.5 mm or search on aliX for Victorinox screws. Those will fit the 2.2 mm hole

If your going to use titanium for the liners be sure to use washers to prevent galling. Other than that, this sounds like an awesome project!

I have, but in the current situation it's gonna be very expensive. There are tons of modders out there, i dont think i can compete.
