Description

The Wenger Soldat, is a true Swiss Soldier Knife manufactured under contract to Swiss Army specifications, and issued to enlisted personnel between 1962 and 2008. Outside of Switzerland it is better known as the Standard Issue, or SI, for short. This version of the Soldat (French for soldier) is based on the Swiss Army 1961 design specifications that were developed by Victorinox.

Some people classify the Standard Issue as the civilian version of the Soldat, as it contains a bail mounted in the hollow end-rivet, which was never included on issued Soldier Knives.

This is the only 93mm Alox scaled model that was manufactured by Wenger. After 2008, Wenger continued to manufacture this model for civilian retail markets. Since it is was no longer an official Soldier Knife after 2008, Wenger started to refer to the model as the Swiss Army 70.
