1980 Wenger Profi Professional series Handwerker (SOLD)


1980 Wenger Profi Professional series Handwerker, 1980 Wenger Profi Professional series Handwerker, this one comes from the European market Wengers made from overstock Standard Issue parts so the blades are dated. The blades are usually unpolished like some of the older Wenger Standard Issue blades. This one is model number 1.72.31 which is the same as the Victorinox Alox Pioneer Harvester. These have either plastic scales with aluminium liners like this one or some older models have nylon scales without liners. These were made for the working man to use in the field usually outdoors since many of the models have the pruner blade and were priced lower. There are many different models that you can see from the website sakwicki.com, just go to the "Wenger" section and click the "Others" section and look for the 95mm part.

Old Wenger Handwerker Handworker


Here is an unusual Wenger SAK. This one I was told was called "The HandWerker" and it was a European model not released here in the US. It has older style handles with rivets showing through, and squared off ends. I have never seen another Wenger quite like it. The tools are;
  1. Large Spearpoint Blade
  2. Wood Saw
  3. Pruner Blade
  4. Bottle Opener with Flat Screwdriver Tip
  5. Awl/Reamer
These knives were made for the European market only out of left over parts and usually had dated blades the same as the Standard Issue.

The Awl has the tip broke off and the Pruner blade has a small chip in the edge. Another interesting thing is the steel seems to be different than what I am used to seeing on a Wenger brand knife. Instead of being real smooth and super chrome like shiny it has a kind of texture to it
and is almost gray in color.
