You can order direct from Victorinox in the US now. Most interesting is this strange accessory sheath. It comes with a spade bit that fits into a 1/4” bit driver cutout in the hilt of the knife, and a pair of sharpening rods that fit into the plastic knife sheath to create a v-shaped sharpening apparatus. $55 for this kit.
I now feel that the needle and thread stashed under the saw blade is the best option. I have stashed them in four Victorinox models: Huntsman, Fieldmaster, Ranger and Hiker and they are staying put when I deploy the saw, although no hard use yet. I coated the thread liberally with fixin' wax which helps hold the needle in place.
This looks to be equivalent to the Recta DP-2, which is available. I'm guessing that the DP-5 was a special edition for Victorinox. There is also the DP-6 & DP-6G (global needle edition). The one that Recta is having problems with at the moment is the prismatic DP-10 which is undergoing a production delay.
Wild edible warning. DO NOT EAT ANY WILD EDIBLE UNLESS 100% CERTAIN. Seeing me do something on the internet does not count as 100% of anything. We will attempt to answer the age old question which has confounded bushcrafters and survivalists alike. Which knife, the Farmer or the Hiker is better...
The Farmer, Hiker and Ranger are my favorite Victorinox SAKs. I have been wanting a Victorinox in black Alox for a while. I was also getting interested in the Farmer X but wondered how much more bulky and heavy it is compared to the standard Farmer. Well, I stumbled upon a Farmer X in black at Knife Center and decided to take a chance.
My best friend gave me this Victorinox Venture for my birthday. It came extremely sharp. Victorinox definitely has the right angle for the edge on the Venture. It is perfect for slicing and carving The handle is very comfortable and it is lightweight in the hand so it is very nimble and easy to use. You could use it
I like the Victorinox Alox models quite a bit. Although the celluloid models are fine the alox just feel like quality to me and I prefer them in my pocket as opposed to riding in a kit. I recently bought a solo blade Alox known as the "Swiss Army 1". It is four inches long and has a single blade which means it is very thin.

Think I just answered my own question after further research - Trekker versions = Philips head. Forester version = corkscrew, nail nick blade is black scales with tweezer and toothpick while one handed version is red/black scales with one handed opening.
The Victorinox SAK knives are grouped by length in milimeters (74, 84, 91 etc.). I'm not sure which model you have, but 91 mm scales should fit all 91 mm length Victorinox knives. Same for the other scale lengths. There are a couple different places to buy replacement scales online
