Last week i took a trip to Cologne, so a visit to the Victorinox store was mandatory. I had email contact before and made an appointment. The store is really nice and all models are displayed. Also the special models such as the Evoke Wood.
The assembly process was on an oldschool machine, but still fun to do. The base model was a Spartan, but I chose the philips instead of the corkscrew, so I guess that makes it a Tinker.
The staff was very friendly, would recommend 👍🏻
My wife bought a purple classic sd and had it engraved, and i also brought my daughters Compact to have it engraved.

What's the relation between Cologne and Victorinox?

I was born and raised there and never had a connection between the city and ASAKs in my mind

There is a flagship store there. Not sure if Cologne itself has a relationship, but there are flagship stores in many countries. Except the US no longer has one. It was in New York, but it has been closed for a while.
