Really wish Victorinox made this. I think this would be an instant buy for a lot of people. Bugs me why they didn't do it already.

You’re killing me man. This is my grail knife! Cadet X. In blue. Absolutely gorgeous. Oh well, at least I can find some comfort knowing it’s out their somewhere. I don’t suppose you’d like to share how much? And whether Frank takes commissions? Take care amigo.

I traded for it so I don’t know what it cost. Based on others I have seen I would expect $150 to be a reasonable price considering the cost of parts and the work. One with actual 84mm scissors would be even more.

@@swizzarmygrizz surely they don't have to, they're already smashing the market, and so... Since they don't need to smash more then they take this devious pleasure in denying to me (I think they do this against me specifically.....) the pleasure to have the best pocket knife I could

😳soooooo envious.... I can't even find a bloody climber small, at any price...... The cadet x would be my perfect carry, or even a sportsman x... Victorinox really seems to enjoy casting out the best tools... Among which the terrible choise about the 84mm scissors. I think they did it since they do have them on the 85mm "evolution" series, so could look like too much duplication in the catalog, but... They're just not the same

Happy Saturday Grizz, Wow man that is an awesome modified Cadet with scissors ! Going by the old styled & IMO better Nail file with stippling the Cadet chassis is pre-2018 as the new cross cut style nail file first appeared in 2019 on the 84mm Sportsman & on the 2020 Limited Edition Blue Cadet. ( I bought 2 & one is in my carry rotation as is an older pre-2018 Black Cadet with stippling on the nail file )

Nice one! A cadet X now i wonder how many decades we will have to wait for one of those? If you take into account about forty years for the pioneer x! Now obviously you cant ever send it in for warranty repairs, but i guess you can take it apart yourself. I think that just may be the perfect 'swiss army knife'? I would like one but without the pocket clip but a keyring!.

@swizzarmygrizz
Жыл бұрын
It’s not as easy as just replacing the pins. The holes have to be drilled larger for the Chicago screws and you need to have a good quality bit for hardened steel. If you’ve ever watched Forged in Fire then you’ve seen how some of the contestants would have trouble drilling the tangs after heat treat. Anyway if that’s within your capability then Ali Express is a good place or just look for any site that sells knife parts. Ali has kits that have titanium covers and the screws.
