About Swiss Army Knives
In 1884, Swiss cutler Karl Elsener set up shop in Ibach-Schwyz, installing a waterwheel in Tobelbach Brook to run his grinding and polishing machines. Thus began what would become the international brand name Victorinox, a combination of Victoria, for Elsener's mother, and "inox," or stainless steel. Today, Victorinox produces watches, luggage, clothing, and, famously, Swiss Army Knives. The original product dates to 1897, when Elsener patented the Swiss Officer's and Sports Knife he supplied to the Swiss Army. Following World War II, American servicemen and women shopping in PX stores shortened the name to Swiss Army Knife, which lives on in English-speaking countries around the world and has become a metaphor for versatility.

 Knife is solid, flashlight works (after a bit) July 8, 2010
A. Dang
After fiddling around with the knife a bit, I find that it is quite solid. Without using it to actually do anything yet, I cannot say for sure how I like it. If it is horribly dissatisfying, I will come back and amend my review.
The flashlight did not work right away. I read the other reviews and I was afraid I was left with a dud. However, after I left the batteries in it for some time and proceeded to nonchalantly twist the lens (while reading other Amazon reviews) I accidentally shined the light directly up into my eyes. That was not fun, but I am glad the flashlight works and will not have to send it in. I think, perhaps, the LED lens or some other part needed some time to warm up. I'm not an engineer or an electrician, so I can't say for sure. All I do know is that the first few times I twisted the cap on, the light did not go on, and now it does.

Just received the Sportsman swiss army knife and LED flashlight. Both are fine. I gave them 5 stars for value.
I notice that two reviewers reported that the flashlight did not work. Could this be because they inserted the batteries in the normal way with the positive terminal up (towards the bulb)? This light is backwards (per the instructions).
This is a tiny flashlight suitable for ultralight camping. I didn't expect a big beam.
