1901 Models
Like their predecessors of 1890, the "1901 Models" do not have any variants but we find the same small mechanical inaccuracies mentioned before..
Principal characteristics of "1901 Models" :
- Handle = wood fibres
- Blade = steel
- Closed length = 100mm
- Thickness = 20.5mm
- Weight = 144gm
- No vintage stamped on the blade (this only appeared in 1921).
- A simple Swiss Cross stamp on the handle representing the “Waffenkontrolle”, (same inaccuracies for position and direction as on previous models).
Features of "1901 Models" :
- It is the second generation of the Swiss Army soldier’s knife.
- It is similar in all respects to the "1890 models" except for the material of the handle.


Note that the same “Waffenkontrolle” stamp was in force from 1890 to 1914.
