It's perfect, but...

It's perfect, but...
I let my son use the scoop attachment to dig some sand while playing in a sandbox. Had to leave him for just under a minute to get some lemonade, and came back to this...

As an up-and-coming authoritarian leader of a small country, I have found this multi tool handy for advancing my agendas, both hidden and not. For instance, the electric knife came in handy to cut the turkey when my family came to Christmas along with the hermetically sealed poison vial which helped to alleviate relatives who suffered from indigestion which can appear symptomatically like not being loyal enough during after dinner conversation. This way I knew I would have a good base of power to work from when I used the sniper rifle and attachments to ascend to the throne. Among the plethora of knives on this tool, I found an assortment of assassin’s daggers that helped me remove the check and balances in the military bureaucracy and the employees who were resistant to the changes a forward-thinking dictator such as myself might need. An example of the research and planning that must have gone into the design and production of this tool is the mine tracking tool. As my agenda has grown to match my accumulated power, I had an entire division of the army dedicated to the laying of extensive mine zones in the effort to assuage my growing paranoia of my neighbor countries and with the tool I can check the status of them any time I wake up sweating in the middle of the night. Pair with that the missile defense system monitor and the interface for my spy satellites and I can almost sleep through the xenophobia and rabid fear of everything that doesn’t fit into my cultural norms because it wasn’t conveniently located in my line of sight as a child. Yes, I have to say this tool has come to occupy a central role in my own religious beliefs even convincing me that an outside power has put this tool in my path to make me invincible and to raise my status on the world stage. With that in mind, the secret forces that I commissioned recently have been working with the sparing dummy attachment to train and the sewing tool along with the clothing dye tool kit will ensure that the false flag operation at the border that they have been training for will look legitimate enough to make even my own conscience believe that I'm attacking that country out of self-defense... or because it is my destiny... or because as my dad raised me I grew accustomed to people I cared about just disappearing and now relationships scare me so I kill anybody that takes on the semblance of familiarity, including whole countries... or because torturous screams in the morning are a kind of comfort after so many years of putting people to death and as the internal politics of my nation building has cooled no-one dares anything remotely resembling motions of possible disagreement with me so I have to turn my psychopathic nature to the peoples outside my country to fulfill my urges... or because I'm breathing. Anyways, this tool is a god send for any tyrant to-be.

So after weeks of waiting for the Wenger to arrive, I finally received notice from the Custom's office. I ordered directly from Switzerland, nothing beats getting it from the source. Turns out that the built in flux capacitor threw them off and because of some stupid rule in the Patriot Act they had to open the box and check it out...who knew.

Once I had made it over there and everyone was satisfied that this was indeed just for my personal use, I got to bring the beauty home. And how thrilled I was! After three weeks of using it there are however a few flaws that I feel should be mentioned and people who are considering buying it need to know about.

It is a complete mystery to me how a Swiss company can include such a useless universal translator (Tool #139)! I am not sure what they were thinking, but I may as well schlepp my Klingon dictionary with me, because the built in translator produces nothing but gibberish (nuqDaq 'oH puchpa''e' actually came out as 'your mother is bald and has gonads' (should be `where is the bathroom')), I mean this can actually be dangerous! I smell lawsuits coming on...

I think that putting the built in Espresso machine (Tool #321, and by the way, try the 'Latte Macchiato', absolutely delish, but watch out for the temperature setting, don't go over 353 degrees Kelvin!) this close to the neutron accelerator (Tool #323) is just asking for trouble! If I hadn't caught it in time, my wife would have probably blown up the whole metro area by accident. Maybe in Europe they can get away with something like that, but not in the US with our litigiousness.

Who in their right mind includes a light sabre (pretty much useless), and the latest version nonetheless, but does not include an optomitron laser cannon? I mean, come on, how often does one find himself in close combat these days?

I thought that the storage chamber was a nice touch, I think they listened to customer suggestions on this, it can easily fit four kegs, but there is no mud room (don't the Wenger people hunt?) and only one fold out couch! What is anyone to do with that?

The online PDF handbook is a good idea, but at 6.6 gigs a tad big maybe. Plus, I found no reference in the manual to the flame thrower (which is actually kind of hidden, it is a sub function of Tool #212, the cold fusion device), oversight or intentional?? I only say one word: Barbecue!

I am getting a strange buzzing sound when I use the plasma scanner device (Tool #462) while running the anti-matter chamber (Tool #479, let me just say: bring some shaving cream and your girlfriend/wife in there with you and have some fun!), anyone else experience this?

The refrigerator (it's actually an accessory) is well worth shelling out the extra money for, they added a freezer compartment, something we had all been waiting for, right??

Regardless of all these flaws I have to say that it's worth its money overall. The handling is beautiful, the built in anti-gravity function works great and putting the handy on/off button on the outside is a great improvement over the last version, bravo Wenger on that one. I like the color scheme, though the OLED exterior with the color changing function is as moody as an Italian car, it has surprised me with some occasional neon colors popping up out of nowhere (I smell a firmware update coming soon).

I'd say if you have been thinking about it, get one, overall you will not regret it.

P.S.: Why no USB 2.0 support? Can someone explain that one...

I purchase this knife on Amazon. When the knife arrived I opened the package . Most of the blades were in the open position. I thought "This is a cool knife" . I closed the knife blades and was shocked to discover that a couple of the blades were longer then the body of the knife and stuck out precariously ready to slice open any finger or body part that dare come within striking distance. What is worse is that the sharp edge of the knife blade sticks right up against a metal bolster that is in perfect position to put a large knick right in the blade. I called Wenger and asked if this was the way that they intended to make the knife or if it was a defect in which the assembler possibly put the blades in the wrong channel . I was told that this knife was a "display piece" and was never intended to be functional. Well that is all well and good but then please inform the buyer as to this fact and don't produce a marketing video that shows the many uses of the knife. I purchased this knife as a gift for a collector friend and I realize that 99% of collector knives will be locked away in a safe and never used but the difference is, a quality custom OR production tool is at least functional. That is the beauty of a tool. Wenger should be ashamed of ever letting this worthless piece of dangerous scrap metal ever leave the factory. Anyone involved in this project should be fired. The cheapest far East knife factory would never let something like this leave the door. And this is Swiss made? . I have to cringe at the thought of a product liability Attorney flashing pictures of this "Closed" knife after it slices off somebodies finger. Needless to say I sent it back to Amazon WITH A WARNING
