This is an authentic Victorinox Sportsman (84mm) produced between 1986 and 1988, identifiable by the following mid-1980s tool configuration:

• Main blade stamp: “Victorinox Swiss Made Stainless”

• “Officer Suisse” on reverse, without the crossbow (post-1986 feature)

• 4-turn solid corkscrew (introduced mid-1980s)

• Awl with sewing eye (1983–84 onward)

• Keyring without spacer (phased out by ~1988)

• Classic 84mm compact format with nail file, openers, and corkscrew

These features together place this knife firmly in the 1986–1988 production window, a desirable transitional period for collectors due to the mix of old and new tool designs.

A reliable, compact Swiss Army Knife with Victorinox build quality and classic styling — perfect for EDC, gifting, or completing an 84mm collection.

Please note: All of my knives are pre-owned and will naturally show signs of age and use. You may notice light scratches on the blades or scales, or small dents and nicks on the handles. Please do not expect them to appear brand new.

In some cases where I have multiple quantities, the photos may serve as a representative example and not the exact knife you will receive.

Each knife is given a brief external cleaning when needed and a touch of oil if the tools feel overly stiff. I don?t dive into frames with toothpicks or polishing agents ? these knives are essentially sold in the condition they were found. I do not disassemble, polish, or restore them, nor do I apply any factory-style refinishing. The blades are not sharpened; given the volume of knives I sell, it would simply be impossible to do so for each one.

What you receive is an honest, unaltered example of a genuine Victorinox (or equivalent) knife, preserved as found.
