Hello, I bought this in 2/2011 so probably not. I will say this though given that it's two years later, That knife still has a razor sharp blade and that's after using on my 7 day Zion trek, my 2 week Appalachian Trail trip, and various other overnight camping/hunting excursions... It looks as though it IS the same knife though... hope that helps

The one I just bought has the Aus8a. Still a great steel, if you want the new steel type, I'd wait a couple months.

I am not sure if it is the new model or the 2013, but I will tell you this machine is awesome. Very sturdy - best machine for the price and I recommend it!

It is but also isn't. Sadly this folder isn't made in the US but the k2 knives are just newer modles.

If the text says plain edge then I would assume it is the plain edge version. I got the serrated version and am bery happy with it. If your getting h1 steel, get the serrated.

The pictured knife is model no. 655, which is the "short" version with 4 7/8" blade, but the Product Details section lists it as the 650 which has a 6 1/2" blade. I guess only Amazon knows for sure which is accurate, but either the photo or the listed model number has to be wrong.

I did some googling and see what your version looks like. I think you do have the new version. Mine looks exactly like the one in the picture. My understanding is that this model was discontinued, so maybe what happened is they brought it back again and changed the appearance slightly. For what it's worth, I think this is my #1 favorite tool in my woodworking shop. Solid, reliable, and fits perfectly in the hand. I'd be curious to know if there are any functional differences between the old and new models.

So far as I can tell, no, but it looks almost identical and if what is said about that one is correct, it is perhaps a very good copy of it or maybe cck just puts a custom handle on essentially the same knife and sells it as the 1303.

I just purchased the knife 1/10/13 and it is the gen2 model. Amazon should update the title so customers aren't confused.

Hi, I'm sorry I live in Italy and I bought it to give a present to my friend, so I never seen the item, anyway it should be the old version without the replacable wire cutter edge.I hope this answer will be useful to you.Regards

Hi, not sure but based on other knives it appears to be a model number. Randi

Same thing happened to me. I called Victorinox and they unconvincingly told me it is the same knife just with a different SKU#. I am a little upset because I bought the 47520 because it had German Forschner blade and here it shows up with a Swiss blade and no Forschner logo. Not sure how I am going to proceed. Have you used yours yet? What do you think?Victorinox 47520 Fibrox 8-Inch Chef's Knife

Yes this knife is new and is the best knife I have ever had. I have used Cutco knifes for 30 years and will not use any other kind.

There are two versions. The later version is the 1/4 inch one you see on their website. Awesome knife by the way.

Can someone please confirm this? It is June 2015. Does the current sheath that comes with the knife dull the blade? Is the sheath made of glass reinforced nylon still? Please be specific.
