No. 2200

history

The model no. 2200 was developed by Victorinox in the late 1950s and produced from then on. The default color was red. The model was available with or without a bail.

This model undergoes only minor changes. The only blade came in two variants, with a symmetrical or an asymmetrical cut. The symmetrically ground blades could only be used for this model and for model no. 2204. These two models were the only official pocket knives with an existing layer of only this one large cutting blade. Once another tool was added to the layer, the pocket knife needed an asymmetrically ground cutting blade to allow the two tools to pass each other when closed.
