Like all Victorinox knives I have owned, this seems like a quality unit. Sharp blade, no wobbling or looseness in the components. I have several knives that I don’t carry because they are loaded down with a bunch of bulky stuff that I rarely use. Thus knife is great in that it has just the stuff I really use. My personal preference would be that the knife was just a bit shorter, say 3″ closed rater than 3 1/2″ closed. Other than that, it’s just about perfect.
