They have always been a 5. This one, in my opinion of course, has a few shortcomings. It closes unnaturally due to the poor placement of the lock. It would have been enough to swap the order of the tools and it would be fine. Most pocket knives are closed blade-down, but this one needs to be closed the other way. The notch on the awl could also be on the other side, but that's a matter of taste. The small knife is very nice; I'll just have to get used to the creator's ideas. I rate 4 for the concept, but the knife itself I rate 5—sharp, handy and the right size for EDC. The only downside was the delivery time—it was supposed to arrive 09/01 with 'immediate delivery', but came 10/01.

Great pocketknife. Masculine size. A wonderful companion for all kinds of adventures. I got it from my wife for my 40th birthday. I've had it (in the black version) for almost 12 years and don't want another. The emblem is almost worn out, the blades have many scratches, and the scales have many scars. But it's still sharp and does the job. We're growing old together in style. Irreplaceable as a tool for everything.

The Victorinox Swiss Army Knife is, as always, of excellent quality, crafted with Swiss precision, care, and durability. The knife is compact and ergonomic to use. The screwdrivers and openers work flawlessly as well. The wood saw, of course, cuts wood excellently. The casing is very comfortable and ergonomic. I recommend the Victorinox brand.

A great pocketknife, big and comfortable. It is useful not only for camping but also for everyday life. Very sharp, locking blade, safe. I am really pleasantly and positively surprised. It's worth spending more on this than on a standard smaller one.
-
Nice pocketknife. Suitable number of tools. Solid blade lock.
-
Here you have a real knife and a saw that gets the job done; I recommend it, for example, for scraping fish. The click when folding the blade, classic Victorinox.
-
Perfect size for conscious use, a smaller one is more of a backup.
-
Very good, functional, and handy pocketknife. Large blade, excellent wood saw, well-shaped ergonomic housing. The liner lock mechanism works perfectly. I recommend Victorinox pocketknives :)
-
Good pocketknife, the long blade works better on trips/camping. Unfortunately, I can't give it a five - the bottle opener has a lock, but the can opener does not. It should be the other way around. With thick cans, the pocketknife has folded several times when trying to open/transfer.
-
Great pocketknife for the price. Excellent quality. Very well made. I recommend it.
-
Very good pocketknife. Excellent grip ergonomics and a really nice large main blade. Very versatile, suitable for city and the outdoors. It will handle most tasks. The wood saw is better than in LM. For me... a great purchase!
-
Nice, a bit bigger than the standard "Vicek," which makes it more comfortable to work with. Just take it to the forest and go. I recommend it.
