History
The Macao Series models often came packaged in blue jewelry boxes with grey-velvet lining, and included a black leather slip-case with a folding closure and the Wenger logo in gold. They were also sold in ordinary cardboard knife boxes with a more common Elite series velvet slip-case.
The Regency, Royale, Imperiale & Jubilee models were 24 karat gold-plated with special imprints. They featured a pen blade, scissors, nail-file and nail cleaner.
