Photos? I have seen the Don't Tread on Me in a Classic. You probably got your Rambler from Rich at CentralValley? If so he commonly swaps scales to make models you normally don't find the special scales on. I have not seen the Gadsden model. Got any photos? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Runs off to do try my luck at Google  now...........

OK, so the Gadsden is the same as the Don't Tread on Me scale? Hhmmm...........

And you are correct i found it on eBay and it was indeed purchased from Central Valley, a place I've never bought from.  THe model number on the box is 54031 which is the number for a red rambler.  I'm not sure if I should be pissed off or happy. Here are some pics of the Rambler and my Vic Whistle.  I guess I'll need to get the real deal in the SD now.

I buy from Rich all the time. I wouldn't worry about it. Actually it would be the only way to get that scale on a Rambler without buying 2 separate knives. Got a Whistle? I like the Wenger whistle better due to its being louder but I guess the Victorinox Classic Whistle will do in a pinch. I find the idea of putting something in my mouth that has been rolling around in my pocket somewhat disgusting. Lint and who knows what else. LOL

BTW, I know you asked about a larger version of that scale and I have not seen anything. Victorinox usually does Classics with special scales unless someone orders a special order batch. I have a few Spartan's with special scales that were probably special orders, but I do not know who originated the order.
