That's awesome, Wayne! I like the way the Swiss cover all their bases with the logo appearing in 3 different languages.

**********

That reminds me of a story about young reporter who was interviewing a 95 year old Italian gentleman.

The young reporter asked of the frail and elderly man: "With Italy being one of the most occupied countries by repressive foreign invaders; how have you managed to survive all of those brutal occupations?"

To which the aging Italian simply gestured toward a large wooden chest in the corner of the room. "Go! Look!" he commanded the young journalist.

The much younger man followed the old man's instruction and opened the chest to discover it contained a flag representing each and every invading army.

It was then that the Italian explained: "Which ever army marched into my village, that would be the flag that I would enthusiastically wave from my balcony."

Forgive me. I digress. Cool knife, Wayne!

The initials SBB CFF FFS stand for Swiss National Railway in each of 3 languages, SBB in German, CFF in French and FFS for Italian.
