From the renowned company that created the Swiss Army knife a century ago comes the Huntsman Boy Scout pocketknife, a compact multi-tool for camping, hiking, hunting, or around-the-house use. Measuring 3.6 inches long, the Huntsman is stylishly cased in the timeless red Swiss Army housing with the familiar Victorinox logo near the top and the official Boy Scout logo near the bottom. More importantly, the unit contains a variety of handy mini-tools for both indoor and outdoor activities, including small and large blades, a can opener with a small screwdriver, a cap lifter with a screwdriver and wire stripper, mini-scissors, a corkscrew, a reamer with a punch, a wood saw, a toothpick, tweezers, a multipurpose hook that acts as a parcel carrier, and a key ring for easy transport.
Huntsman Boy Scout Tools
As with all Victorinox items, the Huntsman Boy Scout is made to exacting standards, with dozens of steps going into its construction. Victorinox attends to every detail, from selecting the finest materials to performing the final inspection. In addition, each individual tool has been hardened in a different way to stand up to its designated use. The Huntsman Boy Scout measures 3.6 by 0.83 by 1.06 (W x H x D), weighs 3.45 ounces, and carries a lifetime warranty.

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 1884, Master Cutler Karl Elsener started his cutlery factory in the small village of Ibach, Switzerland. In 1897, he crafted the Victorinox Original Swiss Army Knife. Since that time, the Elsener family has continued to craft tools in the Victorinox tradition of in genius design, durability, and quality. This is why all Victorinox multi-tools, made of first class stainless steel, are guaranteed a lifetime against defects in material and workmanship. Remember, If it doesn't say Victorinox, it's not the Original Swiss Army Knife.

This is a great knife, I like this boyscout model better since it replaces the corkscrew with a philips screwdriver.

This knife has plenty of nice functionality for a Scout. However, it does not lock open, so the blade can fold back on his hand if he is not very careful. Plus, you really cannot tell which side of the small blade is the sharp side without looking very carefully for the fold-out notch in the knife. When the knife is dirty from use, the notch is especially hard to see. So it's a functional tool, but safety and thought to detail seem to have been largely left out of the equation. Therefore, I would recommend this only for older Scouts.

I've carried the Boy Scout model Swiss Army knife for over fifteen years. In my opinion, it embodies the most useful combination of Swiss Army features available in a "pocketable" package. After all, how often does one need a corkscrew, anyway? The quality is superb; I'd still be carrying my original decade-and-a-half old knife if I hadn't bent one of the blades (through flagrant abuse) to the point that it was no longer sharpenable.
I use this product at least daily, and after fifteen years can't imagine life without it.
