    Heads up for a Bergeon watchmakers knife on Dagaz site

    I bought one of these the last time they had this offer on, its a cracking little tool and great quality, very keenly priced too.

    Only about £3 cheaper than usual eBay price, but a bargain still :)

    Contrary to popular belief, some of the Bergeon stuff isn`t top quality despite the prices.

    I have a similar knife with 'Cousins' stamped on it, quality's fine and it didn`t cost much, it does the job.

    Likewise with screwdrivers, I need decent quality but I buy AF blades and replace them when required.

    Surely it’s just a Victorinox in disguise? Out of interest, what makes it a watchmaker’s knife? (I’ll probably still buy it in the morning... !)

    The curvy blade for prising casaebacks makes it a watchmaker's knife. I use the normal blade for sharpening pegwood to a point or flat end.

    No idea why but I bought one and it was delivered today.

    Disappointed that the shiny casing has a lot of superficial scuffing at both ends. Assume that’s from being loose in the cardboard box and sliding too and fro on the journey from HK.

    Poor but a risk you take buying when you can’t return.

    It’s also substantially thicker than the cousins version I have. Much less flex in the blade when prying open a tough case. I’m very pleased with it.
