Since purchasing this knife, I have had many opportunities to use it, both at home and at work. It is easy to use and the blades remain sharp for a long time. I am very happy with the job it has done for me.

I bought this to carry with me everyday to work (I work in IT). I have owned it for about a month and I can say that I use it very often in my line of work. This thing has helped me take apart and repair a number of laptops and desktop computers. It comes in handy when I need it most and it is the perfect size. I purchased a second Tinker to keep in the center console of my truck. Swiss Army products are the way to go when you need convenience and durability. Also, it has a limited lifetime warranty, so if it breaks under normal use, it will be repaired for free (you pay shipping) and sent back to you.

I had one like it for many years before I finally lost it. This knife isn't too thick and is perfect to carry around all the time. The smaller ones just don't cut it and this price can't be beat.

The black Swiss Army "Tinker" knife is functionally no different than the red one. Both are very sturdy knives that--like all Swiss Army knives--offer a wide variety of uses. I have owned several "Tinkers" and the blades have always been sharp, I have used them in different ways, and have never broken or damaged one. They are particularly nice because they are about 1/2 an inch thick, so they are not too bulky in one's pants pocket. The only real value difference between the black Tinker and the red is an aesthetic one; most people are used to red Swiss knives, so the black one adds a bit of distinction. The only thing I wish this knife had was the scissors instead of the "reamer with sowing eye" blade. (I know they have other Swiss knives with the scissors, but they either seem to be thicker than the Tinker or they have the scissors but not the Phillips screwdriver.) My one wish aside, this is a great sturdy, sharp, reliable knife that will comfortably fit in one's front pocket.

A great handy little knife. Never leave home without it! You never know when you will new to use it. I would highly recommend this knife.

It is great not to have to search for tools: the phillips, the straight edge, the can opener,... oh and the knives are all right there in my pocket. I use this knife more often that I expected and I am very pleased to have made this purchase.

I got this for my boyfriend, a tried and true tinkerer, and he loved it. He thinks it's bee immensely useful. It really can do a lot and is pretty small. Glad I got it, he also loved that it was black, way better than the red.

This is an excellent combination of functions for everyday use, and it is lightweight enough to keep on your keychain without damaging your car's ignition slot. I've had mine for months now and no rust even though I don't always clean it immediately after use. I would recommend this product.

I got the black tinker for individuality and i like black. RAZOR sharp blades, I cut myself pretty bad the first day i got it. needless to say this is not a toy, definitely not for little children. It has all the tools i need for an amazing price! Next i will get the Victorinox Swiss Army Super Tinker Pocket Tool which has a few new tools. Of course the amazing Victorinox quality which for last years. highly recommended

This is my first Swiss Army knife. It's solid craftsmanship is evident at first sight. Perfect size and weight I can carry everywhere; extremely sharp blades.
