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.

Uber-cool Golf Accessory,

This review is from: Victorinox Swiss Army Golf Tool (Sports)
The translucent ruby colored casing provides an update to the classic Swiss Army red, but the old-fashioned quality remains. Bonus: It comes with it's own pouch. Even the pouch is top-quality, padded nylon with velcro closure, the Victorinox logo on the flap and a handy belt clip. Nice piece of work.

This review is from: Victorinox Swiss Army Golf Tool (Sports)
Great tool, I got this for a groomsman gift and they just loved it. Very functional and cool to boot. It has a divot tool, a knife and even a cool ball marker. Anything Wenger makes is good, and this item is no exception.

This review is from: Victorinox Swiss Army Golf Tool (Sports)
This specialty Swiss Army knife pacakges a whole range of useful tools to have on the golf course. I particularly like the groove cleaner for my irons and wedges and the fact that the ball mark repair tool folders up into the body of the knife.
