Product Description
In 1884, Master Cutler Karl Elsener started his cutlery factory in the small village of Ibach, Switzerland. In 1897, he crafted the Victorinox Original Swiss Army Knife. Since that time, the Elsener family has continued to craft tools in the Victorinox tradition of in genius design, durability, and quality. This is why all Victorinox multi-tools, made of first class stainless steel, are guaranteed a lifetime against defects in material and workmanship. Remember, if it doesn’t say Victorinox, it’s not the Original Swiss Army Knife.

Nice looking pocket knife. I don’t know decides or how the decisions are made about what features to include on each model. This one has a nearly full size (Phillips head) screwdriver - which I will rarely if ever use: and lacks a simple scissors - an item I had come to expect routinely on even the smallest of ‘keychain’ Swiss Army knives and an item that I use at least a couple of times each and every day of my life. I think in this case that style got the upper hand over function - and too bad…. as functionality has been to key to the success of Swiss Army knives under any of the now many brands that manufacture them with some version of the Red Cross emblazoned on them.
I’ll put this one away to give as a gift to someone who needs a bit less funtion and a bit more style than I require.

After looking around a bit at swiss army knives I decided on this one. It has all the functions that the average joe would need including two knife blades, can and bottle openers (which also have standard screwdrivers on the ends), a phillips head screwdriver, and some kind of needle thingy that I think is used for leather work or something. The one thing this knife does not have is a pair of scissors - although I don’t really know why anyone would need such a small pair of scissors when you have two knife blades. All and all if you want a good knife just to carry around this is a pretty good choice. It fits easily into your front pocket without being obtrusive or anything, if it was any bigger you’d need to carry it on your belt. The fact that the case is translucent is pretty cool. Although it’s great looking, this is a true swiss army knife and is made to be used. Oh…and lets not forget the toothpick and tweezers. They are sure to come in handy.

I’ve had one of these knives for years. I have used it for cutting bait and fixing a fishing reel that the airline broke. It weighs almost nothing yet has a #2 Phillips, large flat tip and small flat tip screwdrivers plus 2 knife blades a can opener and most important of all, a bottle opener. The blades hold a good edge and are easy to sharpen. I keep one in my jacket pocket.
I bought several for last minute gifts. It’s a great gift for either a man or a woman. I gave one to my girlfriend as one of her Christmas presents. She looked at me kinda funny when she opened it but the next day she said she had used it 5 times already. Now she keeps it in her purse.

This is a great product from a great company. What can you say about the Swiss Army Knife that hasn’t been said? The translucent color of this particular knife is quite nice, though you see the inevitable scratches to the handles easier. Its not a ‘collectors knife’ though- this is a precision tool, meant to be used daily, not preserved in the box. The price made it tempting to pick up a few as gifts.
