Customer Rating:      Summary: The Tinker is almost perfect for daily use Comment: My first Tinker model was a black one-- brought to me from Switzerland in the 80s. I used it for years before finding a red version in the US-- at a Surplus store. I have other models, but the Tinker is the only one I carry on a daily basis. I use it, every single day. It has no attachments that I don't need (scissors, corkscrews etc are nice, but I don't *need* them) and its small enough that I don't feel like I have a brick in my pocket. Tweezers are great for picking up tiny lost objects or splinter removal, and the leather punch is a great awl. The only difference between my Swiss version and the "American" (both Victorinox) is that the Swiss one has a Philips head driver with a horizontal "slot" gap in the tip. That allows it to pinch into a smaller head, while the non slotted one is a fixed size for only larger screw heads. I when I found I could get the Tinker in the US so easily, I put the original in my locked box so I don't lose it. Its a super knife, and I am the hero at the office, at parties (I can open the most complicated packaging easily) and anywhere I fine a loose screw, dull pencil or use for a toothpick (which you can buy in replacement packs). I'd give it 5 Stars-- if this version had the slotted Philips head like my import. I own three in all-- black, red and engraved clear blue. [...]has 4 colors & can do the engraved ones, but they're a few $$ higher.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Reliable Quality Comment: This is about the 15th Victorinox knife I've bought. I (we) still have them all and they are in fine shape. (I have a wife an four kids, hence the large number of knives of various models.) I like to purchase Victorinox knives because I can count on the quality. I've tried buying other brands with very mixed results. Even my oldest Victorinox is still in great shape after 26 years. They come sharp and hold an edge well even though they are stainless steel as opposed to high carbon steel. The Super Tinker, Tinker, and Classic are my three favorite models. The kids get a Tinker when they start scouts and they get a Super Tinker when they get their Eagle rank (of Silver Award in the case of my Girl Scout).
Customer Rating:      Summary: Does The Job Comment: Okay.
You're not a ladies man. You don't need a corkscrew.
You're not an outdoorsman. You don't need a fish scaler.
You're not old. You won't need the magnifying glass for reading the newspaper.
You're not a rescue worker. You don't need a serrated blade for cutting seat belts.
You're not a real handy kind of guy. You don't need an assortment of screwdrivers, 1/4" bit adapter, wire cutter, file, or pliers like you would find on a full size multi tool.
You're not MacGuyver. You won't save the world with your Swiss Army Knife.
This little baby is perfect for the little girls, or IT tech types, in my life. They can keep the larger one in their purse, or pocket protecter, then attach the smaller one on their key chain. Those tweezers are perfect for plucking their eyebrows, or clipping onto their joints; and then they can call me, a real man with man's tools, to come along and jump start their cars, change their flats, change their light bulbs, open their jars, and spray WD-40 onto squeeky stuff.
All kidding aside. My niece loves her's. She simply does not need all of those other things that come with the other tools. This narrows it down to a few simple things that she will use. A small blade for opening mail. Little screwdrivers for battery doors. Everybody needs a bottle opener. She loves the large blade for cutting big sandwiches in half since she simply can't finish those giant deli combos. Her favorite part is the little scissors.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Always a good value and an excellent set Comment: This purchase was an excellent value and I know that they will be quality and durable knives. I'll put the large one in my car and it will get used often.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Pocket Tool Comment: Lost my old knife and bought this pair as a replacement. Swiss Army quality and usefulness at an unbeatable price. Gave the small classic knife to my wife. She loves the little scissors.
