Post what swiss army knife you have.

I have the Victorinox Classic SD, and I'm hoping to get the Compact (Very much like MacGyver's) for my birthday (April 16th).


EDIT: I just noticed the swiss army knife profile option. Oops. rolleyes.gif Well, if you have multiple, post what they are.

I have a Huntsman but it stays at home and never gets used!
The pen knife I use almost daily at work is an old corporate freebie and its all silver with our companies old name written on it. I can't match quite it with a victorinox equivalent from the pictures in the MOL store. unsure.gif It has bottle opener, can opener, blade and scissors on one side and corkscrew, screwdriver and file on the other side.

The SwissCard does have a knife in it? Cool! I thought they didn't.

Well it's a letter opener really, but you can cut things with it if you do your best (strings, soft material, paper, yes... paper!)

laugh.gif Are you sleepy sheepy?
Why on earth would you want to drill with a screwdriver?!
Its one of those screwdrivers that is handy for tightening the screws on glasses.
The grey twisty part is the bit you hold.

Here's mine...

It's got 19 different things, if you count the keyring thing. It's missing one of the accessories that slide in and about the only thing I can figure it to be would be the ball piont pen. Believe it or not, I have used every single tool on this thing... LOL! I found it at a resale shop for $15 and I think it's probably fairly old. I haven't been able to find one exactly like it online, but the closest I found was like $80 and I forget what it was called. Oh...hehe...make that 20...I just remembered there's a little straight pin I forgot to pull out...

And the one Chuck calls his "Sunday SAK."

LOL... Every day but Sunday he carries this little holster thing on his belt with his Gerber all in one tool. On Sunday he just carries the little SAK in his pocket. smile.gif

The emblem is the give away. Wenger's is always a square and Victorinox is always an shield.

You can also see that Wenger's emblem is a sticker on their knives, where as Victorinox print the emblem directly onto the knife.

He has multiple. The Huntsman and the Climber are among them. I'll look it up.
