No. 135 k

history

The Model No.135k is basically identical to the Model No.235k, but has a Phillips screwdriver on the back instead of the corkscrew. Victorinox developed this around 1950, since the model no. 135 k has also been around. Since the 84 mm scissors were no longer produced in the 1990s, the model no. 135 k has a relatively short hihistory. It was particularly popular in the USA, but also in other countries where little wine was drunk and the corkscrew could be dispensed with.

The Phillips screwdriver went through various stages of development, each of which became visible in the different versions of the model no. 135 k. Model No. 135 k was produced in relatively small numbers, which is why it rarely appears.
