victorinox alox limited edition 2022
18.01.2022 - Available in the coming weeks: There was “lightning before the thunder” a popular rock song says, and this is exactly how the new Alox Limited Edition 2022 introduces itself. In the striking color of thunder gray, the collection is a powerful combination of functionality, style and vibrant design featuring the signatory Alox scales.
The Alox Limited Edition is available in a new and limited color every year. In 2022, the 8th edition comes in the color trend of thunder gray, symbolizing maturity, reliability, and protection. The trio consists of the models Classic SD, Pioneer X and Hunter Pro and makes a perfect gift for all, including fans of the brand and collectors looking for that special something. Each item has the year printed on the back and comes together with its certificate in an elegant gift box.
The ribbed surface makes the Alox Limited Edition of Swiss Army Knives a very special, functional, and iconic companion. The scales are punched from aluminum, embossed, and then anodized with the Eloxal process, creating a protective layer and lending the scales their color. This hard layer of oxide offers additional scale protection against damage and corrosion and provides the knife with an easy grip, yet stylish and visually attractive design.
At a length of just 58 millimeters, the Classic SD Alox features a blade, a nail file, a screwdriver, scissors and a key ring. This makes it an ideal companion for everyday use. Price: 39 CHF
The Pioneer X Alox is an exceptionally reliable tool that consumers can count on wherever they go. The 93-millimeter model includes a blade, a reamer, punch, a can opener (with a small screwdriver), a bottle opener (with a screwdriver and wire stripper), scissors and a key ring. Price: 65 CHF
The Hunter Pro Alox is the sleek and handy everyday pocket knife, featuring a large blade, a lanyard hole, a paracord pendant and a clip. Price: 109 CHF
Only available in 2022 as long as stocks last, but meant for a lifetime of use, the Alox Limited Edition 2022 is virtually indestructible. Indeed, Victorinox prides itself on more than 130 years of experience in the manufacturing of high-quality knives in Switzerland. As a Victorinox partner, alscher.swiss co. ltd is proud to be a very tiny part of this success story and to display the novelties in our shop in Interlaken, Switzerland.

the railstation musicbox
22.12.2019 – Railway station musicboxes are ancestors of the jukebox and were used at railway stations to entertain people waiting for their trains.
In our shop in Interlaken (Switzerland) we have a railstation musicbox in operation. It is an important part of our company history, as it marked the foundation of our vast collection of musicboxes:
Made around 1890 and purchased by company founder Leon Luyten, it was placed during the days in front of the shop. The earned money was shared «pocket money» for employees, which they spent on ice cream.
In the early 1960s, it got broken and was out of order. Peter Alscher repaired the rail station musicbox and gained knowledge and access to the world of mechanical music. In the following decades he expanded the musicbox section of our company and his private collection of mechanical music objects. He shared his passion and knowledge with everyone who showed interest in it.
