In the Summer of 2007 the Wenger company announced the Alinghi Series of Swiss Army Knives. These models were intended for maritime use, featuring a shackle-opener / marlinspike. They were developed in cooperation with the Alinghi Sailing Race Team and were also known as the Yachtsman models.

Alinghi is the Switzerland based racing team, and sailing boats, founded, and named in 1994, by the Swiss businessman Ernesto Bertarelli, it races under the colours of the Société Nautique de Genève. In 2000 the team set itself the target of winning the America's Cup Race, and was successful in 2003 in Auckland, New Zealand. This was the first time a team succeeded in their first attempt to challenge for the cup, and marked the first time in the 152-year history of the challenge that the America's Cup was taken to Europe. The Alinghi team successfully defended its title in 2007 at the America's Cup in Valencia, Spain.

There were three nautical 130mm models and one souvenir 85mm model in the series, that were generally available. There was also a special 130mm model, the Alinghi Rescue Knife, that was issued to the Alinghi crew, and was only available for purchase at Alinghi events. This model is quite rare.

The 130mm models had the Alinghi Sailing Race Team logo laser-etched onto the main blade and they were supplied with a fitted nylon sheath.

A few years after the Alinghi series was released, two 120mm models were also created with an Alinghi blade, possibly assembled from spare parts (see below).

Discontinued models, although the Alinghi 181 is still available as the Victorinox Delémont Boatsman.
