Awesome!!! August 30, 2010
Tehnaz E. Rutledge (CA)
Out of the box this is sharpened perfectly,has a glossy new finish and is just great. I have lost the tooth pick before but bought again onliner Victorionox is a great pocket knife to have around. My son has recently been begging for a Swiss Army knife of his own, so, I bought him an advanced version of my own, the "Super Tinker" and my daughter now owns the "Huntsmen"
All three of these knives will be great fun and come in handy for years to come.
 The trusty Swiss Army knife January 6, 2010

My father bought me one of these when I was about ten years old, and I've pretty much carried one of these over across all the decades since then, and I'm still finding good uses for it. The blades stay sharp a reasonably long time, and frankly, as one other reviewer pointed out, I tend to lose them before they dull or become damaged. I'd agree that the hole punch is probably the least useful tool, and I suppose there are better choices. But for me, this is my small knife of choice - it does everything I need it to and it feels right in my hand (and pocket). I tend to buy them in batches...one in my car, one in the office, one I carry with me and so forth - that way, even if I lose a few, I still have one lurking around somewhere. Sure, I have bigger, more capable tools - but this is my favorite that I'm never without.
Highly recommended.

Good knife....BUT drop the hole punch (needle thing ) and put a smaller size PHILLIPS screwdriver in it's place. REALLY !!! Just make it the same as the one with the knife but on the other side. SAME THING, JUST SMALLER. Really , men could use 2 sizes of PHILLIPS with a knife....much more important then a POINTY THING tool. Besides...most people need to carry screwdrivers everywhere with them anyway. SWISS ARMY really needs to develope and sell and all SCREWDRIVER pocketknife..............3 inches in length ( JUST PERFECT FOR CARRYING everywhere, to every event, to work, church ETC. ) "NOT THE BIG 3.25 and 3.50 sizes....TO BIG for pocket", Besides, the big knifes scare people around you.SO LISTEN UP SWISS ARMY....times are changeing....WE NEED 3 inch. smaller knifes , in today's world.
NEED to up-date this knife October 2, 2009

What SWISS ARMY needs is to make this knife (SAME SIZE but thicker ) ,with 3 sizes of flat headed screwdriver and on the other side 2 sizes of phillips screwdriver.......WITH THE 2 BLADES. Thus the perfect knife, with one exception. GET RID OF THE CAN and BOTTLE OPENER and make the flathead screwdrivers shafts straight and flat ( SO YOU CAN PUT THEM IN NARROW TIGHT SPACES ). REALLY 2 blades , 3 flat heads, 2 phillips................."THE PERFECT KNIFE". Really, men need those screwdrivers more than scissors,can-bottle opener or pliers. ( WHERE EVER THEY GO) This would be a very useful, and very popular demanded knife. SO MAKE SOME SWISS ARMY....after 100 years, you need to improve some things.

After ~40 years with a multitool always in my pocket, now I have to produce and explain it for public building security searches. This is a scaled version of the Victorinox Tinker, the same size as most Wenger pocket knives. Wenger knives, in every way I can determine, are functionally superior to Victorinox. Where there's any design difference Wenger tools work a bit better. Lately, though, even their slightly smaller size has become an advantage when emptying pockets at a metal detector. The difference is small, something like 7mm in length, but it's noticeable and fosters the impression of me being someone who needs to fix things rather than someone who wants to cut things. So why not get another Wenger? Only because they're less common and more expensive. You're almost certain to lose any Swiss Army knife before wearing it out, so a cheap one will last exactly as long as an expensive one. This diminutive Tinker does the job just fine for a low price. It's of the quality that made Victorinox famous, in a size you won't notice in your pocket. (I hang it from a belt loop; it fits better vertically, pockets don't develop holes and cartwheels are worry-free!) The frontside tools are marginally smaller, their springs are marginally weaker, but their utility is undiminished. The backside tools are identical. Though more compact it isn't much lighter than big sister. The difference is 1/2 the weight of a single key.
That's Tinker-belle compared to Tinker. Tinker compared to other tools is here Victorinox Swiss Army Tinker with Free Classic Knife.
Oh, and the famously useless toothpick? Tweezers are better now but used to be entirely metal and highly resistant to extraction. Toothpicks were provided, I'm convinced, for prying out tweezers and cleaning lint out of the bolsters.
