This may be the “classic” Swiss Army Knife, but overall it’s a worthless knife. It’s true that there are lots of gadgets on each Swiss Army Knife, but it’s also true that none of the gadgets work well. I’ve never had a Swiss Army Knife that held an edge for a considerable amount of time. The toothpick is too large, only good for someone like Madonna with that huge gap between her teeth. The scissors are so tiny they become unusable. And, have you ever tried to open a bottle of wine with the corkscrew? Good in an emergency, I suppose.
I prefer Gerber or Leathermen multi-tools to the classic Swiss Army Knives. It’s time to move away from these relics. When’s the last time the Swiss Army were successful in battle, anyhown? I doubt they’d win a war with this antiquated knife.

The problem I had with this knife was that it was too small. I was replacing a SAK that had been lost and thought this one was similar. Actually it is pretty tiny…do read the fine print!

The quality is great as expected for Victorinox, but it is really small. Be aware there is no can opener included.

AN EAGLE SCOUT AT 12 YEARS OF AGE, I’VE BEEN AROUND POCKET KNIVES OVER 30 YEARS. BOTH “REAL” SWISS ARMY KNIFE MANUFACTURERS, WENGER AND VICTORINOX MAKE GENERALLY GOOD QUALITY KNIVES. THIS PARTICULAR KEYCHAIN KNIFE BY VICTORINOX IS NOT UP TO STANDARD. IT IS MORE ORNAMENT THAN TOOL. I BELIEVE SOME OF THE EVALUATIONS ARE REFERRING TO SWISS ARMY KNIVES IN GENERAL RATHER THAN THIS PARTICULAR KNIFE. I RECEIVED THIS KNIFE FOR MY KEYCHAIN AS A BIRTHDAY GIFT. AFTER 2 WEEKS OF LIGHT USAGE THE SPRING FOR THE SCISSORS FAILED. I STUDIED THE KNIFE IN GENERAL AND THE QUALITY IS JUST NOT AS GOOD AS THE LARGER KNIVES. VICTORINOX SENT A REPLACEMENT SPRING FOR FREE. IT’S A LITTLE TRICKY TO EXCHANGE THE SPRING. THE KNIFE FUNCTIONS AGAIN, BUT THE FAILURE IS IN THE DESIGN. THE WENGER KEYCHAIN KNIFE I NOW USE HAS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SPRING DESIGN FOR THE SCISSORS.
IF YOU USE THE SCISSORS OF YOUR KEYCHAIN POCKET KNIVES, PLEASE CHOOSE THE WENGER…AT LEAST UNTIL VICTORINOX ABANDONS THIS CHEAP SPRING DESIGN ON THIS MODEL.

I didn’t know a knife can be made this small until I got the shipment. It is too small to be used to peel the apples. It ended up disappearing in my son’s toy box.
I suggest you read the specification carefully before place an order.
