I honestly don’t own this particular knife… yet. I own a higher-end Leatherman. Many tool nuts like me own something like a Leatherman multitool, but nothing like this. If your husband, boyfriend, dad, son, etc is a tool nut (or hiker, camper or survivalist) who has everything, this is the perfect gift. It is too expensive for a stocking stuffer but it is a perfect “main” gift. It is hard to buy a nice tool as your don’t usually know what a tool nut has (or wants) or which model etc. If you are looking to spend a couple hundred bucks and want to guarantee a surprised and happy man (or woman) tool nut, pick this up. You can’t go wrong!

This was a great buy! Well worth the price for all of the tools you get with the knife.

I have owned this knife for several years now and love it. I have 4 boys and it comes in very handy for those scout trips! It’s nice to have everything right there on your belt. I have used the bandages, flashlight, compass, safety pins, and the sewing kit many times. When we take the wife and daughters camping/ backpacking it always comes with me. I even keep it in with my personal items at work. I can’t tell you how many pairs of glasses i have fixed for the kids at my school with the smallest screwdriver! I find it much better quality than those little eyeglass kits you get in the drug store. I have opened up computer cases for repairs, I have made new holes for my kids in their belts, the jobs that it has come in handy for goes on. I really like having the needle, magnifying glass and tweezers for getting out slivers too. I even replaced the band aids with some that had been treated with silver so that I didn’t have to carry antibiotic around with me. In short I love this set!
Draw backs- These are a little ticky but…
1- flashlight could be better if it was a brighter led (mine is a normal bulb light.)
2- sometimes I need a little larger pliers to get a good grip.
3- Weight. It’s not bad, I know I don’t mind it, but I’m sure it could be more than some want to carry.
high points
1- I have always loved little things that could get the job done well and yet be packed away neatly. I enjoy being able to have what my family needs right there all the time. (Though I did sneak in a pair of fingernail clippers too.)
2- the quality is unsurpassed, in my mind Victorinox makes one of the best knives out there. (I own 5, and it’s what I give my kids when they start scouts.)
3- It’s so nice not to go hunting for tools or have to carry around a big kit. (I have managed to repair gates, prune trees, and repair kids jewelry with it while I was out.)
Now that it’s under $100, It’s starting to get to be a much better bargain too!
