In 1884, Master Cutler Karl Elsener opened a cutlery shop in Ibach, Switzerland. There, he and the cutlers’ union he formed produced the finest steel cutlery, finished with the now-famous proprietary edge preferred globally by professional and home cooks. In 1891, Karl supplied the Swiss Army with its standard issue Soldier’s Knife and in 1897 with the Officer’s Knife. In 1921, after the death of his mother, Victoria, and with the advent of stainless steel, then known as “inoxydable" and used in the production of his cutlery, Karl changed the name of the company to Victorinox. It is from those humble beginnings that a worldwide icon was born.Today, Victorinox is still owned and operated by the Elsener family, and both the company and family still resides in the small village of Ibach, Switzerland. Care Tips for Swiss Army KnivesThe various tools are manufactured from high-quality steel with precisely tuned features that are essential for the particular application. The steel is tempered, annealed and polished to achieve the necessary hardness and provide optimum resistance to corrosion.SharpeningTo re-sharpen your knife, use a whetstone at an angle of 15°– 20°. This will result in a cutting angle of 30°– 40°. If sharpening on a grinding wheel, always cool with plenty of water to avoid excessive temperatures and the resulting damages that may occur.CleaningAfter you’ve used your Swiss Army Knife for all of its various applications, such as cutting open numerous boxes, you may notice that the blades begin to stick together. Opening and closing the blades in warm water several times will allow the tools to easily move again. Once they have dried, it is recommended, to apply a small drop of oil between the blade or tool shank and the spring. To optimally maintain the locking mechanism, periodically apply a drop of our recommended Swiss Army Knife Oil. Never put Swiss Army Knives in the dishwasher.

 Okay. Now we have to go over a couple cons, because every honest review has to talk about the cons of every multi-tool. So first up is because this tool uses a high chromium content, stainless steel. The knife blade isn't going to have quite as good of edge retention as other multi-tools using 420 hc steel

 One of my biggest pet peeves of this particular multi-tool were the scissors, while the scissor design is overall, pretty good, they actuate well and they're very sturdy. The fact that they don't open up very far just limits the usefulness of them now this next con might actually be a pro for some people. The screwdrivers do not have bit interchangeability like the leatherman waves. Do the downside for this is, if you need things like a torx bit or a hex drive anything like that, you do not have the ability to add it to this multi-tool where, on, like the waiver surge you do, the pro of that feature is you'll, never Lose the screwdriver so long

 It'S the chisel, slash wire strippers and box cutter. I think this edge is technically classified as a wire case cutter by victorinox, but i personally think it's a great box cutter or doing things like cutting open, concrete bags bags of sand. Things like that that you would not ever want to use a regular knife blade for and since this multi-tool does not have a serrated edge blade. This little box cutter is going to come in really handy for you, so good job on the wire strippers, chisel and box cutter

 However, the regular wire cutters - they kind of have this second notch in there, and i would have preferred a just plain edge there kind of like the leatherman wave, for example. I just don't think the second notch really helps it if anything, it's a hindrance, especially when you're trying to cut larger diameter wire where it might not fit neatly into that notch. So that's a little bit of a knock. I have on it

Victorinox SwissTool Spirit X Review - A Great All Around Multi Tool

smart thinking Victorinox.The Spirit X does come with an attractive brown leather sheath with a velcro flap.I did ponder the switch-out of a button for velcro but it made sense being the button end could scratch the finish during transport,another smart move by Victorinox.

There's alot to like about the Victorinox Spirit X and a few things I don't,I guess it depends on who you are really...but by no means is the Spirit X a bad multi-tool

I did ponder the switch-out of a button for velcro but it made sense being the button end could scratch the finish during transport,another smart move by Victorinox...if this thing gets scars it should be done by the user not the postal service

So I'm going to compare three multi-tool manufacturers pliers so you have a good idea of what your'e getting into...

Victorinox Spirit X Review

 This is probably going to displace my Leatherman Surge. While I like the one hand opening blades on the Surge, the minor flaws and quality issues are a bit annoying. The Swisstool appears to be better quality for less money.

Recently picked up a Swisstool. The fit and finish is incredible.

 Velcro works best here since you can hear the thing "tear" open in almost any environment and avoid losing your tool.  This is my second Victorinox product and I can say that I'm happy with both. The Cybertool almost met my needs but the pliers simply didn't cut it in the workplace (light industrial technician). Carrying both would be ideal (I do) but the average person could quite easily go with the Swisstool Spirit X

Like my Cybertool 41, this item seems to be the same exact quality I'm beginning to expect from Victorinox. That is to say, very nice as far as I can tell. The tools have not been used or abused just yet but that is coming very soon now because I use this tool at work.  The tools themselves are the precise assortment that I would choose to have on a plier based multi-tool, hence my purchase

 The tools have not been used or abused just yet but that is coming very soon now because I use this tool at work.  The tools themselves are the precise assortment that I would choose to have on a plier based multi-tool, hence my purchase. The Philips driver in particular appears well designed after a few uses, you have to use it on different size bolts to get what I mean. I actually like the design of all of the tools myself

 The Cybertool almost met my needs but the pliers simply didn't cut it in the workplace (light industrial technician). Carrying both would be ideal (I do) but the average person could quite easily go with the Swisstool Spirit X.

Initial Impressions

I carried a Swiss Army Deluxe Tinker for years. It worked well for me but I always wished the pliers were bigger/better. The scissors worked well. The screwdrivers were good. As I was wearing it out (and then eventually losing it) I decided to look for a multitool to replace it. I'd like to stay around that size and weight (3.5"ish long, under 5oz). 

I tried a Gerber Dime... it's a bit small though the pliers are decent. The scissors suck. The drivers are weak (bent the spring on the "Phillips" almost right away). I like the bottle opener on the end, but meh...I can open a bottle with most anything.

The Leatherman Juice CS4 looks almost perfect...except it's discontinued so you can't get it other than on ebay...close to $100 for used and $200 for new?!?!?

I looked at the SOG PowerPint and PowerLitre but I've seen a number of concerns about the quality of SOG tool lately. Also, the PowerPint scissors look too small.

What else should I be looking at?

Doesn't anyone make a multitool for me?

Quality General Purpose Multitool

If you're ok with all that, they're great, premium multitools and very comfortable to use

They look very nice and they're made in Switzerland. Anyone here have any good/bad opinions on these?

How good are the SwissTool multitools?

 I really love everything else about this tool, but wire cutters that won’t cut multi-strand wire is a deal breaker for me. I’ll be returning them.

 The wire cutters are terrible. They cut bailing wire fine, but will not cut multi-strand electrical wire cleanly. The notches in the cutters are too deep and allow several strands to escape being cut. As an example, trying to cut an 18 ga

 To my mind, it's just something else that can work loose, and adds even more weight. The only wire I cut is copper anyway, so I doubt I'll wear out the ones on the Spirit X in my lifetime. One thing I really like about the Wave+, though, is the presence of a diamond file. (Are you listening, Victorinox?) Update: Sadly, I have to change my tune only a couple of days after my initial review
