The SAK Enthusiasts collectors group was initiated in Geneva, Switzerland in 2020 by Marc Rebagliati, Hylki Muhadri, Alexei Fox and Cyril Morel. The group focuses on Alox models with original and unique configurations. The first group issues were 93mm Alox models with a firesteel implement - based on an original Soldier modification by Mr. Horst Brunner.
The SAK Enthusiasts' firesteel models were produced by Mr. Guido Fischlin, the work is executed at a highly professional level and to the same standards as you would expect from a Victorinox factory produced model.
