History

An equivalent model to the Pocket Pal was probably the first model in the Victorinox 58mm family and most likely came into being in the early 1940s - See page 32 of the 1942 catalogue. It had an exposed rivet construction, an older cross-cut nail file, a Victoria/Crossbow tang stamp, and no keyring. At that time it was known as a model 620, possibly with a suffix depending upon scale options; various scale options were available, such as imitation mother-of-pearl (MoP).

Based on historical catalogues the 58mm Pocket Pal was produced in the '60s and '70s. It was succeeded/replaced by the Princess model.
