Victorinox Swiss Army Swisstool Spirit Plus with Nylon Pouch

I own several Victorinox swiss army knives and found those to lack the level of structural integrity required for intense field use. They are nice to have in the city, but drop them a few times or use them in a wilderness setting and you will realize their limitations quicly.

However,being a tool buff, I decided to purchase this swiss multi-tool to add to my collection of leathermans: a wave, squirt and skeletool. In short, I decided to give the Swiss one last try to gain my respect.

I am impressed and you will be as well!

The build quality of this unit is superior to all my leatermans. All tools on the unit are self-locking and each element locks into place a resounding and reassuring "click." Very nice!

The scissor element is large and superior in feel to the leatherman (wave). The blade is a bit peculiar as it does not have a point. It cannot be used for any stabbing motion at all. This may be important for those using their tools for field dressing and other use. Otherwise the blade is extremely sharp right out of the box and comes with partial serrations.

The only reservation I have with this product is the lack of one-handed access to the blade. Perhaps this will be addressed in future versions of the tool, but this is a major issue for those needing the tool while/for/during climbing and rappeling excursions. For use scenarios not relying heavily on one-handed use, the build quality and functionality of this tool out-weigh the lack of one-handed usability.

Overall I am very pleased with the product. The engineering is something to behold.

Victorinox Swiss Army Knife Spartan

I collect Victorinox Swiss Army knives, and I bought the Spartan for my collection. The Spartan is the direct descendant of the original "Swiss Officer's Knife" that Karl Elsener invented in 1897, derived from his earlier 1891 design for his Swiss Soldier's knife (which is represented today by the alox Soldier model).

All of the tools on the Spartan are well thought out and very effective.
1. Large and Small blades: Comes extremely sharp. Large blade is great for general cutting tasks, and is big enough to easily peel fruit. The small blade is great for smaller tasks like opening envelopes. I like to rely on the large blade and keep the small blade extremely sharp in case I ever need a really precise cut.
2. Can opener/small screwdriver: Opens cans. Also works in most Philips head screws.
3. Large screwdriver, bottle opener, wire stripper: The screwdriver and bottle opener work well. You can also use the screwdriver blade for some light prying, such as removing staples. The wire stripper does work, but isn't very effective and I would never use it over a dedicated wire stripper.
4. Corkscrew: Removes corks. If you get creative, you can find other uses for it like using the tip as kind of a marlinspike for untying small knots and pulling cotton out of medicine bottles. You can also buy a small eyeglass screwdriver that fits inside the corkscrew.
5. Awl: I find it awkward to use because of its placement on the back. But is is very sharp and will punch through leather well. Use a twisting motion so you're "drilling" and not just pushing through. It also has a pretty sharp edge so I use it to cut tape and open boxes when I don't want my blades to get encrusted with glue residue. I prefer the awl on the Soldier for punching holes.
6. Tweezers: Good for removing splinters and picking up small objects.
7. Toothpick: Works well in its intended job. I've also used it to point out small locations on a map.


The Spartan is very useful, and I love it for its historical significance. However, for everyday use I would recommend either the Victorinox Swiss Army Super Tinker Pocket Tool or Victorinox Swiss Army Executive Pocket Knife. The Super Tinker adds large scissors (very handy for cutting paper, clipping coupons, etc.) and has a Philips screwdriver instead of the corkscrew. The executive offers a variety of useful tools in a smaller package than the Spartan. There are many Victorinox Swiss Army knives out there, so do some through research and find the one that is best for your needs!

Swisscard Lite Transluscent - Ruby

I purchased this item for my wife to replace a similar one she had lost after having it for years. She absolutely LOVES this new Swisscard! She used the tools it holds almost daily and it fits so easily in her purse that she's never without it. I highly recommend this item for any woman out there. I don't know that this item would hold up well in a jean pocket, and it's likely too thick to fit easily in a wallet.

Victorinox Swiss Army Bantam Alox Pocket Knife (Silver Alox Ribbed )

Couldn't believe how thin and light the Bantam is, but not in a gimmicky space age way. It's all metal and pretty bomb-poof. The blade came nearly razor sharp. It doesn't lock; a liner lock would probably make the knife twice as thick. I've used the "combination tool" to open bottles and tighten big phillips screws. It would still be a very cool minimalist knife without this feature (which they do sell), but the bottle opener makes this thing exponentially more handy without adding appreciable thickness or weight. It's the same thickness as their tiny Alox keychain knife.

you really won't notice you're carrying it, and indeed you won't realize when you've dropped it in the movie theater and had to buy a new one. grr. if anyone found one of these at Star Trek let me know, i'll buy you a new one in exchange for getting mine back.

Victorinox Swiss Army Classic Edelweiss Pocket Knife (Lime Green)

I've had about 8 of these mini-pocketknives in red and black over the last few years, and each time they are "borrowed" by one or more of my 3 boys. No matter where I hide them, they find them, and then lose them. I then decided to order the green and blue version of these, and I still have them 2 years later! Somehow the boys just manage to leave these particular knives alone...wayyyyy too girly for them I guess.
The knife is very useful, and my friends and my sons' friends are always amazed when I pull it out from my purse to cut an apple, take out a splinter, snip a plastic piece from a toy, sand down a sharp fingernail, etc. And I don't feel like some kind of knife-wielding freak when I use it because it's so cute.
I have bought several of them as gifts for friends and they love them too!

Victorinox One Hand Trekker NS Pocket Knife

I have always carried a Swiss Army knife of some sort. This one is easily one of my favorites. This is a true utility knife as it includes features that are very functional and practically no useless ones. I love the shape and size of the handle. Some may think it is too large but I don't detect much difference from other Swiss Army knives when I have this one in my pocket.
Here's my take on the features of this knife.
Blade: The one handed opening blade is very handy to have. I used to always carry a tactical folder, along with my ever-present Swiss Army, but having an obvious knife clipped in your pocket isn't always appropriate in public. The flat grind of the blade is also a plus. I immediately noticed that it cut more efficiently than most pocket knives. I purchased the non-serrated blade because I knew that sharpening would be much easier. Swiss Army knives do tend to dull with heavy use, but I have found they are extremely easy to return to a razor edge. The liner lock is definitely good to have for safety reasons.
Saw Blade: These small saws work great for their size. I've cut through many branches, 2x4s and even large pieces of plywood without much effort. The one on this knife is a little larger than the regular sized Swiss Army knives, which makes it even better.
Can &Bottle Openers w/ flathead screwdrivers: The screwdrivers work fine. What I like is they are easy to get at and are part of another tool, as compared to a Leatherman that has about five different size screwdrivers that just take up space and offer no other function. The can opener is the same as the regular version. The bottle opener is a little larger and has a liner lock. I guess if you're doing some serious beer drinking you want a bottle opener to stay in place.
Phillips Head Screwdriver: This works fine for simple things like removing small screws from electronic equipment. It can't reach very deep and I wouldn't recommend putting too much torque on it, as I have bent the frame on a regular Swiss Army while trying to remove screws that were corroded in place.
Reamer: This is probably the most underrated feature on most Swiss Army knives. It is great for drilling small holes in wood, plastic, leather, and even thin sheet metal.
Tweezers and Toothpick: The tweezers are nice to have handy, although I've found the toothpick will wear if it's removed a lot and eventually not stay in place. I usually just replace it with another pair of tweezers. Your teeth may suffer some, but the reamer is great for dental work too!
The only change I would make to this knife would be to add another small blade. Other than that I am very happy with this knife. I can't imagine finding a better pocket knife for the same price.

Victorinox Swiss Army Soldier Pocket Knife (Silver Alox)

I needed a small birthday gift for an Army veteran and the recipient was
quite pleased with it.

This is the best Swiss Army knife ever made. It is reported to be the sturdiest of all the knives, and has only the necessary tools. Perfect for daily use and as a gift to friends and family. It is reported to be the official army knife of Swiss soldiers and well proven.

I understand this model is in final production and there is a Limited Edition final production model which is somewhat more expensive. Amazon.com didn't have it but I did see it on other sites which I was unsure of the safety, etc.

Victorinox Swiss Army Explorer with Collectible Gift Box

I highly recommend this product. I have owned a Victornox Explorer for over 30 years. I have found that the set of features on the Explorer has been the most versatile for climbing and hiking. I have used every tool on the knife in situations in the field that were critical. They have helped fix snowshoes, adjust crampons, remove slivers and find difficult to see Devil's Club thorns, helped start fires, open wine bottles, trim finger nails, cut moleskin, open cans, fix flashlights, tent poles and packs, clean fish, and countless other tasks. I have never had any tool on this knife break.

This year we are hiking the Pacific Crest Trail and my hiking companion did not have a knife. What better birthday gift than an Explorer. I know it will serve him as well as mine has.

Victorinox Soldier Knife Standard Issue

I finally decided to buy a Victorinox Swiss Army Knife because I knew I would get a lot of use out of it at work as well as home. I've never owned a Swiss Army Knife, just cheap imitations (which this ain't). While browsing their online catalog and searching for the right compromise between features and size, I saw that the new standard-issue soldier knife had just gone on sale for 2009.

I was attracted to the olive drab color scheme, much more businesslike than the Swiss red. Since it's brand new and I'm a geek, I had to have it. Factory site says it's 4 and 3/8" long closed, which is on the big end of the pocketknife scale IMO. Some may even carry this in a belt pouch, but I find it very pocketable. The grips are lightweight, hard plastic with softer black inserts. The matte texture is very easy to hold and won't show fingerprints or smears. Comfortable in the hand.

The size of the knife, along with the tool loadout, make it more suited for outdoorsmen, soldiers (go figure), and assorted "rural adventurers". The knife blade opens easily with one hand, lefty or righty, and locks with a satisfying clink!. The lower 1" of the blade is plain (and sharp!) and the rest out to the tip is serrated. Fun fact: I believe they bill this blade as a "seatbelt cutter" as well. I carry the Swiss knife alongside a plain folding knife, so I don't really miss having a plain blade, but this may be a concern for some.

The bottle opener is the only other tool with a liner lock; it doubles as a big flat screwdriver and it has a little wire-stripper notch onboard (works well on small wires, fyi). The can opener has a small flat screwdriver at the end. The saw is accessed by pulling up on the blunt tip on the blade (it sticks out of the knife just enough to get ahold of but not enough to snag anything). Its ability to fell small trees is limited only by your patience. The keychain attachment point could be used for a lanyard or something too, because it's kind of a big knife for a keyring. The Philips screwdriver is fine but boring, so I won't talk anymore about it. The "reamer" is a fearsome looking sharp little dude, useful for punching reamer-shaped holes in about anything (use your imagination), but be careful because it doesn't lock open.

This knife is all about craftsmanship and good steel, no cheese to be found. It's got the quality you'd expect from Victorinox, especially since they're building these for the military. It comes together like a Swiss watch, or maybe a bank vault. I look forward to slaying a lot of beer bottles and odd jobs with it, and if it turns out to be a lifesaver someday then that's cool too.

Victorinox Swiss Army SwissTool with Pouch

I used to carry a well known name brand multitool until I found THREE superior options ( my decision was based on 40+ years as a fire fighter, police officer and bomb disposal technician ( EOD ). I have owned a number of multitools over the years and abused them all ( that's why the good ones have a lifetime warranty ). The three best for the money in my opinion are the 1. SOG Powerlock , 2. Victorinox SwissTool and 3. SOG Pocket PowerPlier - don't waste your money on anything else - no other multitool can come close to a SOG or Victorinox in performance, functionality and warranty. I do own other brand multitools and have a desk drawer full of them and they are used solely for opening envelopes and packages. When I need a multitool at work I want a `real' multitool that I can depend on to do the job at hand - the following 3 are my choices, depending on the assignment.

The first rescue multi-tool worth your money is a SOG Powerlock ( various models are now available to suit your needs - " including the assisted opening "). I prefer the S66 because of the tool / implement selection. This folding tool isn't new, a fact that speaks to its highly regarded Compound Leverage mechanism that generates twice the pressure and gripping power of lesser tools. To wit: this thing is the Jaws of multitools. Beyond strength, you'll love the pivoting handle covers that really do improve comfort and dexterity. All the essential tools are intricately positioned for deployment and for you showoffs out there, the PowerLock's ability to open with a quick flick of the wrist is undeniably cool. The PowerLock features removable, pivoting handle covers that improve the comfort profile for your hand. More pressure can now be exerted on those tough jobs! Like the rest of the family in the series, the PowerLock can be opened and closed with a one-handed flip of the wrist. This is a basic requirement from SOG as so often one is holding wires or standing on a ladder and does not have both hands free. All tool components are easy to access and lock in the open position. The Phillips even locks in two open positions. With one of the simplest and safest locking devices ever engineered, just press the back of the lock and close the component into the handle. Included components in the S66 include a plier / gripper, 3" straight blade, 3" serrated blade,3 sided file,large screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver, small screwdrive, medium screwdriver, can opener, bottle opener, "V" cutter, wire crimper, blasting cap crimper, compound leverage, comfort grips, rulers and lanyard ring. The PowerLock also comes with a heavy-duty, dark leather pouch. A standard design issue with any SOG multipurpose tool is the advantage of it's hex bolt construction. This essential design element gives you the greatest versatility to clean and change tool components ( additional tool components are directly available from SOG for a modest charge) - with hex bolt construction holding the SOG's together - replacing tools is a snap. The SOG features all stainless steel construction ( also available in a black oxide finish #B66) and comes with a heavy duty leather pouch, a Lifetime Guarantee and they are MADE IN THE USA. Street price is around $55.00.

The second multitool in the lineup is a Victorinox SwissTool which comes equipped with both a plain edge AND a serrated blade / seat belt cutter which can be life saving in a auto accident. Victorinox Swisstools are quality unsurpassed , as are ALL of the lineup of Swiss Army Knives. The implements on the SwissTool are well thought out, each tool is individually accessible and locks securely in place. The knife blades are scary sharp and probably the sharpest of any production line knife made today, plus they are stainless steel. The heftyness of the tool speaks of it's quality, ruggedness and ability to do the job. I have broken the plier head jaws on several other manufacturers multitools , never on a Swisstool, including the smaller Swisstool Spirit, they are made to last a lifetime. I have had occasion to send Swiss Army Knives t Made in Switzerland with a lifetime warranty. Street price around $50.00.

My most recent addition to the "Best of the Best multitools ", the third, in my arsenal of multitools and I find it adequate to do 99% of the jobs handled by the two mentioned above. Lighter and more compact than the SOG PowerLock, its big brother, the Pocket PowerPlier ( Model #S44 ) is very easy to carry and use. SOG's Pocket PowerPlier is packed with essential tools that include pliers/grippers, wire cutters, partially serrated blade, Phillips screwdriver, three-sided file, can opener with a small screwdriver, bottle opener with medium screwdriver, an awl, rulers, lanyard and heavy duty leather pouch. Again the PPP's advantage of hex bolt construction leaves all the other multitools running for cover as this essential design element gives you the greatest versatility to clean and change tool components ( additional tool components are directly available from SOG for a modest charge) not offered by other multitool manufacturers. With the interchangability you can replace the partially serrated blade with a 3" plain edge blade and I also removed the 3 sided file and replaced it with a serrated line cutter. I find carrying the PPP a benefit because of less weight hanging on my belt ( 5.5 ounces vs 9.6 ounces for the PowerLock) . Also noted is SOG's Deluxe Pocket PowerPlier ( Model S45) whichs adds a large screwdriver, 1/4 socket drive however it loses the awl as a tool and weighs in at 5.5 ounces - same as he S44 model. Backed by a Lifetime Guarantee and they are MADE IN THE USA. Street price around $45.00

Victorinox Swiss Army SwissTool Spirit Oxidized Black

I've definitely put this tool through a lot. It's been a great knife for me. I use it as an alternative to my Swiss Tool when I want something a little lighter on my belt. It's incredibly lightweight for what it can do. And the quality is impeccable.

Based on my personal experience, I have to disagree with the other reviewers about the black oxide rub-off issue. Maybe I just got lucky with my Spirit, but I've never had the black oxide rub off in over a year of regular use.

By the way, thanks for the elaborate review, E. Kim!

Victorinox Swiss Army Swiss Champ XLT (Transucent Ruby)

I received this tool as a Christmas gift from my wife. I find it to be of excellent quality, and the different functions are well suited to a wide range of needs. There is a bit set built into this knife with multiple attachments, but the Phillips driver that seems to work the best for your standard #2 Phillips is the dedicated one built into the tool. There is a blade for every need, and the pliers work great, assuming you have adequate hand strength. The pen has come in handy on many occasions when I needed one. If you are going to be writing for a while, like in class, I would recommend finding a regular pen, as my hand tends to cramp up from using this pen for extended periods. All in all it has proven to be my preferred tool. It may be overly bulky to carry for some people, however all of my slacks have a change pocket, and the XLT fits there like a glove.

Victorinox Swiss Army SwissTool Spirit Plus Ratchet

I was leaning towards the Leatherman Wave at first but after researching a bit more and looking at the features, I decided to go with the Swisstool Spirit. I have to say after using it I agree completely with all the positive feedback on this multitool. First off build quality is rock solid and typical Victorinox, there is no play on any of the tools and I would feel confident abusing it. On the other hand its also a very handsome looking piece of hardware with its polished finish so I find myself trying my best to avoid scuffing it up. One of my favorite features is that all the tools lock up, it gives me confidence in using it for its intended purpose and not have to worry if something will snap off. The chisel and awl are sharp and good for precise work. I have no problem with the "butter knife" since I already carry a Spyderco Caly3, it compliments a folder nicely and is sort of my beater knife for tougher jobs. Look for the Spirit S or X model for the plain blade if you want all in one convenience or do not carry a separate knife. Of course the main reason why I picked up the Swisstool were for the pliers. They feel solid and most importantly are very comfortable and ergonomic. Although the tip is blunt, they are precise and can actually be used as tweezers. The little Victorinox logo also adds a nice touch, a sort a badge of quality. The rest of the tools are the normal philips head, can opener/flathead screwdriver, file, saw and scissors you would find on Swiss Army knives. The scissors do not open up as wide as the normal ones on SAK but not a big deal to me since I hardly use it. Next, the accessories.. very cool and definitely worth the extra price. The ratchet set is convenient and easy to use. One thing I really like is that it gets into places a normal screwdriver wouldnt fit. Finally is the nice nylon pouch, it looks great and holds everything in one compact package where you can just grab it and get to work. In conclusion I would highly recommend the Spirit, you cant beat the all in one convenience of a multitool and especially Victorinox quality and lifetime warranty.

Victorinox Swiss Army Rescue Tool

I'm beginning to like the Rescue Tool more all the time. Initially I was going to send it back but now I think I'll keep it. It's well-constructed, pretty well-designed and it GLOWS IN THE DARK! How cool is that? It's also a bit of a handful but I think that's a plus since you need a bit of leverage and a solid grip to operate it properly anyway. The seatbelt cutter is amazingly sharp and easy to deploy and both screwdrivers are very substantial. I'm not sure I'll ever use the glass saw but it's nice to have anyway. My only complaints revolve around the large locking blade. It's got a weird partial serration that runs back from the tip. It should be either be fully serrated or better yet, not serrated at all so it could be sharpened. My other issue is that the liner lock is counter-intuitive. Instead of pushing it with your thumb to release the blade you have to pull it toward you. It's awkward to operate and makes it hard to close the knife one-handed. The mystery is that the liner-lock for the screwdriver blade works the proper way. I'd give this thing five stars if they changed the blade serrations and liner-lock but it's still a good product and well worth the money.

Victorinox Swiss Army Classic Pocket Knife

When I opened up the package, I was astonished but very pleasantly surprised to find out how *small* this is! The red housing measures 2-1/4" x 1/2" (dimensions exclude protrusions from the tools contained within the housing). This makes it real handy to take along with you on camping trips or on hikes. It is small enough to attach to your key chain (it has a ring for that purpose).

I'm simply amazed at the quality of the craftsmanship. The ruby red plastic (I picked the ruby red version of this knife) is transparent, not opaque like the housing of a classic Swiss Army knife. It contains some of the most essential tools for a survival toolkit (and then some):

1) Scissors
2) Knife
3) Tweezers
4) Screwdriver (Flathead)
5) File
6) Toothpick - Eew! Gross!

The knife and scissors are EXTREMELY sharp. The tweezers come in very handy if you ever need to extract a thorn or a stinger from a bee from the flesh. The tip of the file is a 1/8" flathead screwdriver. As for the toothpick... use a disposable toothpick for chrissake!

Victorinox Swiss Army Champion Plus Pocket Knife
