History
This model was only manufactured, in limited numbers, between 1999 and 2000 (source SAAMs), and is therefore relatively uncommon and collectible. Victorinox invented the Cybertool in 2000 and the SwissChamp XL model was replaced by the SwissChamp XLT around that time - with the Cyber layer in the XLT replacing the divot tool from the XL.
