I purchased this knife because I own a Swiss spartan and find I don’t use half the tools and it’s an unnecessary bulk. This knife has what are for me the two most important bits on a standard Swiss Army knife. The main blade and the bottle opener, which in this case also serves as a tin opener and a wire stripper as well as a flathead screwdriver! I’ve put this knife through it’s paces and I bought it to use in retail work where I regularly cut boxes and things like zip ties, but I needed something stronger than a Stanley blade. It has been fantastic since day 1 and is so thin and light that you forget it is in your pocket. It’s a slipjoint knife which is stiff at first to open and close but you quickly get used to it. I’ve used this knife for everything, even things it’s not “meant” for. Like I used the bottle opener as a pry bar when trying to lift something I couldn’t with my nails. This knife is 10/10 and I recommend it to everyone looking for something slim and light that has the amazing quality of Victorinox. My one “critique” if you can even call it that is that it sometimes falls out of my pockets unbeknownst to me because it is SO thin meaning it can easily fall down the side of sofas. But I bought it looking for a thin knife so it is perfect. 10/10. I love this knife.
