history
Victorinox produced the model no. 236 fm from around 1973 until today. Essentially this was an early model Champion without the long nail file but with a chisel on the back. This model was created when an additional layer was added to the model no. 146 fm (Champion) from around 1973 using the magnifying glass and the Phillips screwdriver.
Originally equipped with the fish scaler, this was replaced by tongs in the 1980s.
