Victorinox Swiss Army Outrider Damascus 2017 Limited Edition

The Victorinox Outrider Damascus Limited Edition 2017 Swiss Army Knife is a masterpiece featuring a striking, wear-resistant damast steel blade as its focal point. This exquisite blade boasts 115 layers of steel, meticulously crafted to display a captivating "Odin's Eye" pattern, a testament to the ancient art of damascus steel making—a skill known only to a few master metal smiths. This technique involves folding and welding steels of varying hardness to create a single, superior material, which is then finely ground, polished, and etched to reveal the distinctive damascus pattern. The blade, made from high-quality stainless Damascus steel with a hardness of 60 HRC, combines beauty with functionality. Beyond its remarkable blade, the Damascus Outrider is equipped with 9 other essential tools, ranging from a can opener to scissors, all while maintaining a sleek profile by excluding a saw and corkscrew. This decision ensures the knife's uniqueness within the Victorinox collection. The knife's handles are made from durable, eco-friendly wood fiber composite by Epicurean, enhancing its aesthetic appeal. The front handle features a steel inlaid Victorinox cross and shield, while the back is laser engraved with the year (2017) and a unique serial number, highlighting its exclusivity. Each Damascus Outrider is presented in an elegant display box, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, underscoring its collectible status. With only 5,000 pieces available globally and a mere 360 in North America, this limited edition knife is a rare find, making it a coveted item for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
