Handy but not the most durable, June 30, 2008
This review is from: Victorinox Swisscard Lite, Onyx (Sports)
Victorinox Swisscard Lite, Onyx It's quite handy to use however it isn't the most durable while in the wallet. The card will slowly split and will make the tools fall out when taken out of your wallet. If you want to make this last you might not want to put this in your wallet or put it in your back pocket.
I learned my lesson after the first time and keep it in my backpack. Otherwise this is a great tool to have on you.

Flat Swiss Army knife, March 15, 2007
This review is from: Victorinox Swisscard Lite, Onyx (Sports)
I love the "flat" version of the small Swiss Army knife. It fits in my pocket so much better than a regular knife and it has more features. I particularly like the ballpoint pen. I don't normally carry a pen, so by having one that is part of my knife I am always covered. I don't use the light much, but I do use the twizzers, the pin, the scissors, the knife, the magnifying glass and the screwdrivers all the time. All of these items are made of high quality materials and because they are always with me I find that I use them at times I wouldn't expect to, simply because they are available and easy to access. It's a great product and on the rare occasion when I forget to put it in my pocket, I quickly realize how much I depend on my "flat" Swiss Arm knife every day!

Extremely handy - a great product, February 10, 2007
SwissCard Lites were our top 3 sellers in 2006 out of hundreds of Swiss Army knives (the black 53323 was #2). Victorinox introduced SwissCard Lites in 1997 and they have been a hit ever since. They are inexpensive, always a plus! They are only a little larger than a credit card, and fit in the main part of a wallet, or in a purse.
Somehow, Victorinox fits 13 tools into this space - you can see most tools from the outside because Lites are translucent. 7 of the tools are the same as the SwissCard Classic - 1. Small blade/letter opener. 2. Scissors, 3-4. Mini-ruler (cm and inches), 5. Stainless steel pin, 6. Ballpoint pen, and 7. Tweezers. SwissCard Lites have 6 more tools than the Classic - 8. an LED mini-light, 9. magnifier, and 10-13. four screwdriver bits (3mm, 5mm, Phillips 00-0 and Phillips 1-2).
Needless to say, it's useful to have SwissCards around at school or work, around the home or on the go. The blade is good for opening letters (you'll want a Swiss Army knife for a strong blade); the pin and scissors are great for opening packages or cutting paper. It's always useful to have a pen around. We use the ruler to measure products in inches and millimeters. The light is a good safety item for seeing in the dark, such as a keyhole. The screwdriver bits are good for opening computers and office equipment. So all in all, it's a winner! Highly recommended.
