Wenger Pathfinder

Generally this is classified as a Hiking or Backpacking type of knife. The addition of a map tool puts this one in a class by itself. The Wenger Pathfinder is an 85mm model targeted towards the hiker or backpacker, featuring the compass and orienteering tool.
The Pathfinder toolset was available under several names:
The Classic 12 without any image on the front scale; later as the Backpacker 12 with a boot image printed on the front scale; later still, in 2009, as the Evolution 12 Backpacker - also with the boot image.


Discontinued models.
