I found the Cybertool 29 while looking for a replacement for a cheap version of the same thing. The Victorinox knife is better made, lighter, thinner and fits in my pocket perfectly. The bit driver is the main selling point for the knife, even though the translucent colors are cool. The 4 included bits will fit about 90% of the screws you come across. Because the bit driver extends well past the knife, its perfect for working with recessed screws, something that most multi-function knives simply can’t do. The pen is the perfect size for setting dip switches, but more frequently, unlocking bedroom doors, which is convenient for preventing the kids from letting the dogs out when company is over. The rest of the features (tweasers, toothpick, leather punch, cork screw, small glasses screwdriver, two blades, bottle opener, and can opener) are pretty standard for a Victorinox knife. They are all functional and well made. I’ve purchased 9 of these knives and have been giving them friends, missionaries, and recent college graduates. If you are going to carry a pocket knife, I would highly recommend the Victorinox Cybertool 29.

To start off with I have to say that Victorinox is very inovative when they keep coming up with different Swiss Army knives to fit many different uses. Where I work I am the day to day keeper of some 50 computers in a math lab type setup at a local community college. This little knife allows me to do nearly 100% of the computer repairs I need to do without going back in to the inner office and grabbing my tool kit and at home from trying to dig around the utility drawer to find the right screw drivers. Te barrel length is just the right ammount to reach in to and unscrew even the tallest of CPU fans from the MB. The only thing I would do differently if I was at Victorinox is to make the driver bits magnetic or to make this knife with the SwissFlash and a small white LED. The SwissFlash does come with the LED and makes another great cyber device.
If you already own another Swiss Army knife and are an IT tech or just enjoy working on or building your own computer this knife is great for you. No need for the other cybertool 34 and 41 knives unless you want to put aside your other knife. I personally carry an Old Swiss Champ that I have had for more the 20 years on my belt and this cybertool makes a nice addition. Now if they would only add their flash drive you would have a great cyber tool.

I bought it since I work in IT, but am also a computer hobbyist at home. While it is not my primary computer tool, I keep it on me and it has come in handy quite frequently. The bits fit all standard screwheads, knives come in handy in more way than one, and it even has a bottle opener to pop the top on that post-shift beer. The pen has yet to dry out on me. And although I have not yet tried the corkscrew, it seems a bit too small to actually open a bottle of wine. Great little tool to have around for those computer geeks.

I’ve had one of these for a little less than a year now. I’m responsible for the tech support of a huge division in a major college in the New York City area, and this is the only tool I bring with me. I’ve used it fro everything from fixing computers, to repairing typewriters. It has paid for itself a hundred times over. Highly recommended!!!

I’m a geek, but you probably wouldn’t pick me out in a lineup (not that I’ve been in a lineup, but…). Anyway, I must say that the Cybertool Pocket Knife really is as great as other people say. It’s easy to use, and I find myself carrying it with me far more than any other tool I have, just because it is so verstile.
