Summary: Incredibly Handy
Comment: I bought this because I received a gift card for Christmas 2006 from my then Fiancee's mother. I thought it would be a more appropriate 'gift' than a computer game. I did not expect it to be as handy as it has been. I've used it very frequently since buying it. I've carried it around nearly every day since buying it, and most days I use it. The days I've forgotten it I notice it is missing.

I bought this particular version because I liked the tools it had. The size is also about right. You can get other knives (not just Victorinox) that have many more tools, but they are really large and not convenient. I've also seen some that are exclusively knives, and so are fairly thin (and some that are more like a hunting knife) but to buy just a knife seems pointless. I'd say I use the one of the knives (this particular model has a small and large blade if you don't know) more than any other individual tool, but I'd say between the two, they account for about half of what I use the knife for.


Editorial Reviews:

In the small village of Ibach, Switzerland, the original Swiss Army knife was created in 1897 by Karl Elsener. The Swiss Army knife has the cross and shield emblem. This emblem symbolizes the legend of Victorinox and Swiss Army Band. The Swiss Army knife with it's multi-tool was legally registered on June 12, 1897. Over 34,000 of these pocket tools with the distinctive Swiss cross leave the factory in central Switzerland each day. Ninety per cent are for export to over 100 different countries and serve as ambassadors for Switzerland. The Swiss Army knife can be found orbiting the world with the astronauts, going on expeditions with the exploreres, trekking through the rain forests and even in the New York Museum of Modern Art. The largest model is the "SwissChamp" with 33 features. Over 450 steps are required in its manufacture. You have a large selection of swiss army knives to choose from. Each knife has specific multi tool to make your life a little bit easier, especially in those difficult moments. Many of the knives come with a light or a pen.
