Just had to share my new pride and joy - and the last Walker to complete the collection! Will take a updated family snapshot later

Gorgeous! Looks mint.

Ah, the pre-Torx days! Is that Klotzli built?

I don't know, I don't think so. Apparently it was only available through Ironstone/SFO. Maybe Sal will chime in if he sees this.

Tack så mycket, Lars! Hälsningar från Seattle.

When i first saw the screws i for some reason wondered if they were Phillips or JIS, then i thought, oh, maybe some european standard if built by Klotzli.

So it doesn't have a country of origin etched or stamped? Anything marked on the other side of the blade?

Haha, fancy hearing Swedish from Seattle :)
It says Seki-city on one side and AUS8 on the other.
Cheers

Ja hej! Jag kan bara prata lite Svenska. I lived in Gothenburg in 2004-2005 and need to make a return visit. So maybe JIS screws after all?

Thanks, Peter. I got that from Larry's post about Seki-City.

If you're going to Sweden again drop me a PM if you like. Would be fun to meet up if possible!
Tell you the truth I only know Phillips and Pozidrive when it comes to "cross headed" screws..
:confused:
