Victorinox knives started from Canivetes suíços, but now they are widely used as convenient multi-tools from EDC activities such as mountain climbing, camping and touring to offices and dens. Here, we have selected 10 recommended items from many Victorinox knives.
About Victorinox Knife
The Victorinox knife started out as an army knife, but now it is used in various ways as a multi-tool. Victorinox knives are changing and evolving to accommodate various options for recommended multi-tools, depending on the person, work, and location.
Victorinox Knife’s story
When officially adopted by the Swiss Army in 1897, it was a knife that had at least all the necessary functions for eating and repairing weapons. There were many anecdotes that it was helpful to be able to repair radios and weapons during the war.
First Soldier Knife (Soldier’s Knife) The military version is still not equipped with a corkscrew, which seems to be a tradition from that time.
The red color on the body of the Victorinox knife is less likely to be misplaced or lost.
First Soldier Knife (General Knife) It is said that the military officer class competed for the purchase.
Victorinox emblem Victorinox knife was patented in 1897, but since many similar products have been on the market since then, in 1909, the white cross, which is the national emblem of Switzerland, was put in the handle part.
Wenger emblem The other male Wenger emblem of the Swiss Army knife, which was acquired by Victorinox in 2005.
Wenger His Camper Left His former US President Bill Clinton has been a fan since he was given to celebrate his presidential election, because Mr. Clinton was left-handed. I presume that this is for Wenger’s left-handed person. Blades, scissors, corkscrews, etc. are all designed for left-handed people, and the southpaw mark is a landmark for left-handed people.

Victorinox knife maintenance
Since the Victorinox blade is made of stainless steel, it is unlikely to rust under normal use, but after using it for cutting seawater or salty foods, be sure to rinse it well with running water and then dry it. please.
If the sharpness is reduced, you can restore the sharpness to some extent by touching up. Apply the sharpener evenly on both sides to the blade at an angle of 15 to 20 degrees, and sharpen while maintaining the angle.
As is often the case, if sand or dust gets stuck in the joint, it will be difficult to open and close the blade, so clean it with a toothbrush and open and close the blade several times in lukewarm water to remove dirt.
About Victorinox
A surprising way to open when the tool drawer is stiff
It’s really hard to prevent the tools from opening. I got used to it a little or it was better with oil, but it came with just the right tools. Recommended for people with weak nails.
How to use a can opener
It is a can opener that you do not know how to use. Victorinox knives can be cut by pushing, which is the mainstream in Europe and the United States, but in Japan, the method of cutting by pulling is the mainstream. So it’s hard to understand.
Handling precautions
It seems that there are cases where the bladeless army knife was stopped when trying to bring it into the aircraft, so be careful.
“Please be careful when carrying and handling blades in US. According to the Firearms and Swords Possession Control Law (Firearms Law), you must not carry a blade with a blade length of more than 6 cm except for business or other justifiable reasons, but it is a foldable type. As for knives, those of the type or shape specified by Cabinet Order are allowed up to 8 cm or less. Many of Victorinox’s multi-tools are not subject to the gun sword method, but the lock blade series with a locking mechanism, Swiss tools, and Swiss tool spirit are subject to the gun sword method. Also, even for blades that are not subject to the Firearms and Swords Act, please be careful when carrying and handling them when you go out. In some cases, it may be subject to the Minor Crimes Act.”

Although it is a Victorinox knife as a tool, it has a history as a multi-tool, ingenuity, and many tools that are not used, but it attracts the hearts of men for some reason. Prices vary greatly depending on the shop, so they are shown as a guide. Thank you for watching until the end.
