It is one of very few Victorinox models that contain both an in-line and back-side Phillips head screwdriver. Along with the SMKW Wildlife Series, it also had the unusual feature of the fine screwdriver behind the opener layer in the position that the reamer would normally occupy.
This model is easily identified by its bright canary yellow scales, which were uncommon on 91mm models.

History
As mentioned above, this knife was an exclusive model made for the Smoky Mountain Knife Works (SMKW). It was first offered in 2007 and could only be obtained from the SMKW. This was the first of a few special issue models that Victorinox would make exclusively for SMKW. In 2008 it appears the remaining stock was sold through a small number of dealers other than SMKW. This knife is now discontinued.
