About Victorinox
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.

Product Description

In 2003, the Swiss Army Classic SD pocket knife was dubbed "The Most Popular Knife in America" by Knives Illustrated Magazine. Over time, the little red toolbox with the essential Swiss Army features has added fashion sense to its functionality. It is now an attractive accessory for any keychain. New this year, the American flag graces the handle of this multi-tool. The Classic SD is equipped with 7 functions: knife blade, nail file, screwdriver, scissors, key ring, tweezers and toothpick.

I have had one of these on my key chain for over 15 years; it's only been replaced 3 times and I use it almost daily. It comes with a removable plastic toothpick and tweezers. I love having a toothpick handy after eating out somewhere and the tweezers work very well. The tweezers do not have the strongest grip because they are very thin and therefore a bit flexible, but I have never had them fail to work and they have very sharp edges for getting out the finest hair and/or splinter.

The knife and fingernail file/screwdriver are obviously useful in many instances; the only problem I've ever had is that if you are trying to remove/loosen a very tight screw it might close on you if you press too hard. The implements do not 'lock' into place, so you have to use some caution.

The scissors were originally my primary reason for purchasing these and are fine enough to help trim your cuticles and strong enough for smaller cuts. They are definitely not super strong but definitely cut paper and thin plastic easily.

Overall, these are a terrific gift for just about anyone and a great purchase for yourself. I've seen them in the store for upwards of $14 but you can frequently get these for less here at Amazon.

I have been carrying these small do-it-all pocket knifes for a long time and am very pleased. American flag is sure is a great addition.

Purchased this as a stocking stuffer gift for my father. He keeps a knife on his key chain but the old one was falling apart. He loves this one and I think the design, colors, and quality are great - this little knife is a good value.
