The blade looks very similar to the Victorinox blade for the same purpose from their 111mm Hunter. It is possible that this blade was adapted to the Wenger knife for this special edition.
The 505 Hunter was also available with AP Blaze and Snow scales.
This model had limited production. See History for more details.
Discontinued model.

The above information may refer to the initial production with standard red scales, because in 2013 the same model was offered with AP Blaze and AP Snow camo scales.
It is not known if an additional production run was made build the AP Blaze and AP Snow camo scaled models.
