 Very practical Aug 23, 2010
this is a great product, it has a lot of practical and functional features. Very well made.
Very Useful Knife especially the magnifier Aug 18, 2010
I have already found many uses for these tools. And the scissors cut! Well made easy to operate if you have fingernails.
Invaluable to have around Jul 20, 2010
Not much to say, except that a Swiss Army knife is a darned handy thing to have around, and that the Victorinox brand is well worth the slight increase in cost over no-name brands. This is the first big SAK I've bought in many years; a hotel chambermaid made off with my old one. This model doesn't have the pliers, but I often have a Leatherman around also, and it *does* have the scissors, which are darned handy, more often than I would have expected. The Victorinox line--at least, every one I've owned and that's a handful--are exceedingly well made and with a little care, will last a LONG time (unless you hit a hotel with a crooked chambermaid.) I've got at least one of these, or some combination of a SAK and a Leatherman, in my satchel when I'm working and in my camera bag when I'm on vacation. How could you live without one?
More than just a knife Jul 01, 2010
There are a lot of useful tools included on this knife (see the product description), but I find the nice sharp knives, small Phillips screwdriver, functional scissors (really), wood saw, and ball point pen to be the most heavily used. These are all great tools and have saved me a lot of time and trouble when the need arose. I like this knife so much that we ordered 2 more to give as gifts. Highly Recommended! Having the Champion Plus Pocket Knife is like carrying a small toolbox in your pocket. It is a little too big to haul around for everyday use, but it is great to have when hiking or doing small jobs around the house. This is a well made, solid Swiss Army knife that will give years of service.
 The MacGyver's Knife Jun 15, 2010
Since I saw the series during my childhood, I have always known the Swiss-Army knife as the MacGyver's Knife. I bought it as one of the items recommended to carry along during a long strenous hiking trip. It is probably not very accurate to call this thing a knife, but close enough since it also has a flat-head and phillips screwdrivers, a can and bottle opener, a hook, a small magnifying glass, a saw and a saw-straight-edge combo. One problem I notice is that because there are so many items packed in one piece, some of the items are hard to be brought out. It takes some effort to pull them out of the slot where they are embedded in. Be careful when pulling an item while some other sharp items nearby have been pulled out already since you might accidentally cut yourself as I have done at least once. I also noticed the user's guide seems to imply that there is a plier included but somehow I have not found it. There are a few more accessories shown as separate pieces that I did not receive; what appear to be a tweezer, a nail, a stylus and two other items that I'm not sure what they are. Perhaps the plier and these extras are for a different model? Anyway, all objections aside, I still think this knife is worth buying and keeping for emergency uses.
