to build market for their wenger counterparts? I think Victorinox recently bought out Wenger. There can only be ONE SAK!

And Vic has better toothpicks <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Wenger has been doing all that "evo" handle stuff - I haven't touched one yet because I think they're ugly. Which is why I hadn't gotten an OHT right away, which all boils down to ignorance and closed mindedness! Anyways, I think that Vic has better options - all around. More models have the toothpick/tweezers, they (had) the Alox models which are great, the Classics have little screwdriver tips on the nail file (I like that!), and now Vic has lasers and memory sticks in some of their smaller knives (memory stick would be great with me - as a university student - I always seem to be without a way to save something on campus and have to email attachments to myself. I never seem to have a memory stick with me - BUT - I always have a knife... so... if I had a memory stick in my knife??? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />)

It's a 1 Gig. I love it, and I'm constantly using it. They're really too expensive though... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> I got mine a couple of years ago when Best Buy had them on sale. I just couldn't resist. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> BTW, it's got a great little flashlight on it too... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I prefer Wenger actually. I have an old Wenger that was in the gift baskets for some olympic ski thing that my sister gave me and it has been a very useful tool. I also have a Wenger bayonet. Victorinox made the same bayonet but the only difference was the markings. It is second from top in this blurry pic. ![[Linked Image from f10.putfile.com]](http://f10.putfile.com/thumb/7/19216293728.jpg)

There's things I like about both myself. I have many Victorinox and several Wengers. I hope that Wenger will continue to be a little differnet from Victorinox. Now that Victorinox owns both I worry about the competitive innovation between the 2 companies, I hope they continue to compete in some way so that they will both continue to challenge each others product lines.

Dice, best time and price for it (any electronic) is black friday (day after turkey day), and most times you can order it online, no lines or crowds!

It was on sale online. So I called the store and they quoted me a MUCH higher price. So I ordered it online and selected the option to pick it up at the very same store that had quoted me the higher price. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I made sure and told them when I dropped by to pick it up too... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
