I am looking for a source to buy a discontinued Victorinox Swiss Army Knife.  

This is discontinued model known as the ?Director"

The ?Executive? is still available, and the difference between these
is the Executive has black or red plastic side plates which contain
the toothpick and tweezers, and a key ring loop.

The Director has thin stainless steel side plates, so it doe not have
any room for the toothpick and tweezers, nor does it have the key ring
loop.

Hi drbushee,

Do you ever rebate a portion of the fee when the answer is found so easily?

I had searched Google - Froogle and was looking for keywords "orange
peeler", etc. since this is a unique feature of these knives.

I thought I had searched some time ago by "Director", but obviously
this is not a discontinued item.

Awaiting your response, 

DRB

Hi drbushee,

The Directory is not readily available - and I did perform an
extensive search in order to find it for you.

I didn't search for orange peeler, as indicated in my keyword search. 
I did perform a search with the keywords listed.

Google Answers does not offer rebates for quickly found answers.  

Sometimes the researchers get lucky and find exactly the customer wants!  :)

Best regards,
tlspiegel

My apologies, I meant to type the Director (not the Directory).

Thanks!

HHAHAH... that's funny!  :)

Thanks for sharing your search terms used.  One never knows what will work, eh?

Excellent.  Quick, consise, 100% accurate.

It would never occur to me to be dissatisfied or ask for a discount
because a researcher found my answer quickly.  Quite the opposite.

Hi drbushee,,

Thank you for the 5 star rating, comments, and tip!

Best regards,
tlspiegel aka owner of Victorinox Exective Swiss Army knife.  :)
