Congratulations to Kevin Wiliams for winning the Knife Center Exclusive Swiss Army Pioneer. Keep your eyes peeled for the next KnifeCenter Giveaway.
Great Video, Love my Handyman knife.
I like the electrician in alox. Has all I need forgave day in the world..
I carried a Hunter when I was in the service and now when hiking/camping. Looking at the current models and wish I could pick my own blades/tools..if I get the ones I want then I get a few I don't want
That S18 is looking better and better the more i Keep rewatching, its so Difficult to choose just 1 favorite! Great video btw. Informative and fun to watch.
Great video. I love my Climber.
The Swiss army knife was the first real thing my oldest son saved his money for. It was the knife with like 40 tools on it. Pretty much worthless but he want it so bad. He was about 7 and he saved and saved and was able to buy it. I was very proud of him for for that I think it was the Swiss army knife that made him realize if you want something you have to work for it. It turned out to be a life lesson for him. Thanks for reminding me of that memory.
which one did he get?
@@WetFart996Swisschamp maybe?
Worthless?
@@franciscole3039 they are often worthless until you need them
Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it
wish they could be customised: choose your set of tools.
@scriptorsilentum I know you posted your comment months ago, but I totally agree, that’d be amazing.

You are a god for adding these time stamps
Mechanic? Deluxe Tinker? Bantam alox? 🤔
I use the huntsman lite
Is it good?
Godsend
This guy is a fantastic speaker and spokesman. My favorite one is the Pioneer X.
yes the pioneer x best one victorinox made in my opinion
They had made Pioneer X in the past,for the Swiss military medics but they stopped producing it at some point.Saying one SAK is the best is not fair for all the other SAKS.After you get older for excample,the Explorers magnyfing glass,becomes vital and generally with the added utility that celidor models ofer,makes the Explorer more ideal for us older people! I think that there are at least 10 Victorinox models,that I could say,they are the BEST lol
I personally like the hunter
Great video just wish this guy can cut his dirty nails. I would of enjoyed the video much more just kept focusing on them dirty long nail.
That's my fav too
Used the corkscrew to start a VW bug with a broken off key in the lock cylinder. Just screwed it in until turned and started. Girl power
candice beebe just no
candice beebe oooohhh yeah baby
candice beebe - car thief
girl power wtf?
just Brain power...
In the early 70's, I bought the red version of what later became the Pioneer. After almost 50 years, it is shiny aluminum with a red checkerboard. Great knife!
My personal favorite for the price is the field master. I use it for working on the farm and I can’t tell you how helpful it has been. The saw is fantastic for cutting thick twine and small branches and the scissors are strong enough to cut thin electric fence wires.
As much I like knives, I like your presentation. Thank you for clear and detailed job done.
My favorite Swiss Army knife is the Explorer, because of the magnifying glass that us old folks need on a regular basis.
Bought my first Explorer at age 23 and even then I found myself using the magnifying 🔎 glass regularly. I'm 58 now.
It's hard to pick one favorite since there is one model for every occasion, so I'll go with a sentimental reason. The Swiss Champ that my father gave me in 1988.

My favorite Victorinox is The Camper, small and compact size.
Mateusz K always carry it
My favorite is the Victorinox Camper, (which hits all of my tool sweet spots, with the knot-opening, screwdrive-holding, pin-retaining corkscrew.) That said I usually leave it in my briefcase and carry a classic Red Spartan in my pocket. The Pioneer may be the descendant of the first military contract, but the Spartan is the modern version of the original Officer's Knife that soldiers brought home from the World Wars. It made Victorinox knives desirable and famous outside of Switzerland!
The huntsman is my personal choice
Yes.
The Swiss Huntsman is an Excellent Choice!!
Same here and I also like my Eddie Bauer edition
I lost my Explorer and replaced it with a Hunstman. Excellent decision
Just bought one yesterday 🙂👍🏻
i dont know what to choose,a huntsman or a farmer x
The Explorer Model is IMO the most practical . It has enough features without being too big to carry in your pocket .
I gave someone a Champion Model years ago before he left on a cruise to the British Isles . He used every tool on the knife during his trip including the saw and magnifying glass .
I've given countless Classic Models as gifts to women and one time a woman I dated spotted an identical knife to the one I gave her on another woman friend's keychain ( Uh oh ! ) .
My first Explorer Model served me for 28 years as a pry bar, paper weight, scraper, etcher, paint can opener, puller, hammer ( Don't try this at home, kids ! ) , measure and more . I also used it in its intended functions . I offered to make an ad for Victorinox but they turned me down because they don't normally use testimonial ads ???????
If I misplace my Swiss Army Knife, I lose all of my magical powers and turn back into a mere mortal .
I've got the Champ model. Best one ever. An ex girlfriend's parents gave it to me as a birthday present about 15 years ago. Still got it, it's my edc, and I never leave home without it. And like your friend, I've used every tool that's in it.
I always have a Classic SD on my key chain. Carried the Tinker for YEARS, that I replaced with the one hand Trekker. Never leave home without.
When I was younger my dad bought me a spartan and I loved it had it in my pocket always. I was working on a farm feel in the hay loft and it was lost.
I had the super tinker for years. Absolutely loved it. Still have it as a reserve today. But last year I upgraded to the strait blade one handed trekker and it's an absolute beast! I'm an avid outdoorsman, Hunter, Fisher and survivalist and it has held up exceedingly well to every task I've ever put it up to!
I, my Mom and my Sister bought Victorinox Swiss Army Knives CyberTool for Christmas in 2019.
The multiple screw heads it comes with is so handy in this day and age.
Hello!
Many thanks for posting such an interesting video!
My favorites URBAN EDC Victorinox Knives are:
1. Delemont EvoGrip 14
It has all the tools I need and like to carry. It’s downside is that the Evo scales make it a thick pocket knife
2. Sportsman X
I modified a regular Sportsman adding a 3rd layer with 84 mm scissors. Beautiful knife and incredibly practical as an EDC
3. COMPACT
Probably the best standard EDC for urban use! As I carry my knife vertical by my side with a pocket clip, the 91 mm Compact is a bit long
4. SMALL COMPACT
Again, I modified a 84 mm WAITER by adding a second layer with 84 mm scissors. The result is THE BEST URBAN EDC I have! It is the one I use the most.
5. CADET ALOX
As you mention in your video, it is a perfect gentleman knife to use with my suit.
I insist, these are my personal choices for Urban EDC and that have the tools I most often use.
Take care
GREETINGS FROM GUATEMALA!
Excellent video, congratulations. My favorite one is the “Bantam” because it is really thin, very easy to carry it into the pocket. It has the multifunctional tool and the blade. Perfect to carry when you go to a BBQ with friends, possible to cut meat and open beers...
I’m rocking a Classic my grandfather bought in the 1970’s on my keychain still. Blade is sharp, file works great and I still use the scissors a few times a week to trim my mustache.
For something he paid like $7 for close to 50 years ago.. not too shabby.
Only major maintenance I did was clean the interior up with isopropyl and q-tips, then coated it all in Tuf-Glide and let it dry on over a weekend before wiping it all down.
I hope to use it til I croak.
I have carried a Swiss Champ for 44 years and have about 20 other models in my collection every jacket and coat has one in a pocket so I never leave home without at least a 3 layer blade in my pocket. I have never had one let me down and when I did drop one once it was so easy to send it back to get the scales replaced the customer service is wonderful. That was a great Vid just as I expect from someone who is talking about great knives..
The farmer is my favourite. I love the outdoors and it is what I pack for the outdoors. It fits in my pocket easily for EDC use too and so it is with me everyday for the last 4 years.
I have a huge 7 layer Champion but my favorite is my Climber I bought in southern Switzerland in 1981!
This guy is the absolute best spokesman I have seen. Perfect voice and comfortable style that puts you at ease and makes you feel like a friend. I have a few Pioneer Xs
Thanks. Excellent overview. I've carried Victorinox Swiss Army knives for 40 years and it is cool to see the variety that is out there.
Well done, David! Steve Jennings here. Concise, clear, professional presentation. I carried a Tinker from 1969 until just a few years ago, when I discovered the Hiker which is the Tinker with an added saw blade. I carry a Farmer when I head to the woods.
03 Aug 2019 - Thank you! You gave very clear detailed descriptions of each knife. You are a prepared fantastic speaker.
My favorites are:
- The Deluxe Tinker: My personal EDC for about 5 years, it's compact enough to carry in a pouch and has the three tools that I use almost daily: the scissors, the phillips screwdriver, and the very underrated pliers.
- The Tinker Small: Basically the tiny version of my Deluxe. Although the 84 mm format is only slightly shorter than a regular 91mm Victorinox, it makes a quite a difference when you carry it in your pocket.
- The Bantam Alox: Not only it's gorgeous to look at, but it's so slim that it fits inside my wallet! The combo tool is quite useful. I carry it wherever a full-size knife is not discrete enough.
- The Outrider: The best knife in the 111mm range and the best knife for hiking or any outdoor activity. The locking blade is great for more heavy duty woodwork.
- The Rambler: A perfect keychain knife for people who don't want to carry a knife! I've gifted this one countless times.
I’ve still got my camper from when I was on holiday with mam n dad in Switzerland. We drove from England to tour Europe in 1980. 43 year old now & never faulted. Still got the tweezers & toothpick. Love them. 👍🏆
Been collecting Victorinox for years. Love the old Champions
I'd be tempted to pick the Tinker. It has every tool I'd ever need and it was my first SAK, but the everyday use simplicity of the Classic makes it my pick.
I love the Victorinox knifes since I was a little kid. The where kind of pricey at this times , especially as a kids knife- but on my 5th birthday I got one from my beloved grandpa! Man this was a big day! Now I’m 40 and still got this knife- I had used it for over 15 years and it never left my climbing Rucksack. Now this „camper“ just sits in my knife collection, always remembering me on my beloved granddad. U just have to love them!
Why on earth would your granddad give a KNIFE to a 5 year old??
@@ejkalegal3145 cause he was a wise man that thought me how to use a knife and how to avoid getting hurt using it. He spend a LOT of time with me whittling, cutting apples, bread and ropes . It was a true heart gift and the main gift wasn’t the knife I realized now that my own kids are getting bigger and bigger . It was the time he spent with me , telling me how to be carefull with this tool.
( and for ur better understanding- I wasn’t allowed to use the knife when I was alone, i wasn’t allowed to carry it when I was out with my friends or so - I just got it from my parents when is was with them or my granddad)
@@dr.seppjausen9778 That's nice, he loved you very much. Blessings and love to our grandads!!
I love the tinker have one with me for over 25 years, it has never let me down, always there to save the day
The Tinker is my favorite. Great second blade for whittling.
I totally agree, strong and sturdy model. Had mine for 20+ years and still works great
I’ve carried my Tinker almost every day for 30 years. Still razor sharp with an occasional hone, and still has the original toothpick and tweezers. My Boker Kalashnikovs do most of my day to day utility work, but my Tinker gets used a lot also, especially the Phillips head screwdriver. Never leave home without both knives.
I immediately trust this guy because he totally looks like the dude at a good hardware store who will sit with you for the time it takes to get you to the right thing for the job. Great video.
huntsman is my favorite. i own about 6 of them. i have 3 different swisschamps, but i still like the huntsman.
Yes.
The Swiss Huntsman is one of the Best Swiss Army knives!!
I agree. I love my Huntsman.
And I doubt you've hardly opened a single tool on them....
The sak climber is my favorite!
I used to love the tinker. The last few years my favorite has been the huntsman. My next one will be a one hand trekker
My husband uses one every day. When he worked as a plumber. Also now in the medical field. Thanks Victorinox.
Been using Victorinox saks for over 30 years. My favorite is the Fieldmaster.
I'm really liking the Compact. This my first real look at Swiss Army Knives so it may change as I keep looking.
After some research... I ordered that one... I think it'll do just fine
My favorite one is the free one that I will carry every day! Seriously though I have what I believe to be the tinker but with the bail instead of the key ring, dated it to be from sometime in the early 60’s! Has all the tools I need and still looks good enough to pass as a recent purchase! Thanks for the video!
I had a couple of Wenger hikers back when they were around (still have one but the back spring for the blade is weak), but now I carry the field master. It has all I need for day to day use. Love it.
I grew up with Victorinox Swiss Army Knives. Had a lot of the models but the one I stuck with is the Alox Pioneer X. And super cool that you featured it. At present I own the Green and Blue Alox Pioneer X. That exclusive Red Alox will be a great addition to my Pioneer X collection.
Great review. I've been using swiss army knives for many years. For my purposes
(construction work and camping as well as every day carry) I've found that nothing beats the Huntsman.
Only the field master if you want the Phillips.
Love these knives. I've got 4 huntsman's, one I've had for about 30 yrs. Also have a couple Spartans, a Tinker, couple SDs, and a Cybertool M but the Huntsman is like an old friend.
As long as you don't abuse them. My oldest Huntsman is a little rough due to me abusing it when I was a kid. Don't use it for prying and find a good sharpening method and it will last a long time.
They are good knives but like anything you gotta take care of them. I recommend stone sharpening as anything with an electric motor tends to remove too much material. Electric sharpeners greatly reduce the lifespan of knives in my opinion. I love these, I still carry my compact every day.
I am of Swiss heritage so I especially love my little Swiss Army Knife. I have had different versions of it thru the years. The toothpick is very useful, The knife and scissors are great for arts and crafts and the little tweezers and nailfile are awesome for grooming.
Thank you for explaining each model and feature. I found this very helpful.
My favorite is the one I've been using for a few years: Evogrip s18. Super useful!
Currently my favorite is the Explorer. It has such a wide range of tools in a fairly compact package, including the inline phillips driver.
The one handed trekker with the smooth blade is my favorite because it replaces my need for a basic folder or it can compliment a folder. It doesn’t look scary if I use it in crowds. Thank you.
Been around Swiss Army Knives since I was a kid, however a 2018 knife model which is amazing is the Silver Hunter Pro Alox, which is the first Swiss Knife which is large, is a one handed opening and with a deep carry pocket clip. The quality is superb! I carry it everyday
ninjamalta I really want to get a hunter pro alox
@@fridericusrex9812 you wont be dissapointed I can tell you this, very good Steel (Victorinox actually sent me an email in detail about that since I asked), one handed opening, deep carry clip and very robust and strong. And of course it s Victorinox :) it s my daily carry now
My favorite Swiss Army knife would be the Tinker and a very close second would be the Super Tinker.
I love Victorinox kit! At the moment I have the Forester model, ideal for my photography and camping trips. A superb tool from the best in the business!
Picked up the KnifeCenter exclusive red Farmer X and Bantam alox... absolutely love them and very happy that KnifeCenter offers them in the red!
Love the Pioneer Style. My daily carry is a 2017 Limited Edition Pioneer, plus I have an original Wenger Soldier knife which is a lot like the Pioneer. I also carry the Victorinox Rambler which compliments the alox Pioneer perfectly. The Pioneer X would be an awesome replacement to both, especially a red scaled version... nice work Knifecenter!
The Cybertool 34, and similar models deserve being mentioned. They're one of the only models with a bit screwdriver and bit holders that hold double sided bits for a total of 8 tips plus the others you find on the other tools. They also include pliers, scissors, a pen, and more.
I've carried a Cybertool 34 for 28 years now. It's great. Another one that I think deserves a mention is the midnight manager. My wife carries that, since it's the smallest knife, flashlight, pen combo there is.
I am a knife obsessive and have about six or seven SAKs that I draw upon. I carry the same model the presenter carries daily, and I have found the Army issue with the full serrated blade to be exceptionally useful around the house as well as for camping. Extreme example: Cutting and deboning a chicken I was stymied by something. Maybe my ignorance of chicken anatomy. The poultry shears didn't cut it but the army issue knife made short work. Also, I have the single-blade gardener's pruning knife, a beautiful thing. I use it every day to open mail and cut up envelopes for shopping lists and other bits. I am extremely loyal to several marques: Patagonia, which needs no introduction; Tretorn, the inventor of the modern 'tennis shoe' and a source of outstanding casual footwear, and Victorinox/ Wenger. Life is good.
Picked up 8 of the S18's as gifts for my groomsmen, and 1 for myself last year. Great knife and adding a edc hook allows comfortable upright carrying in the pocket.
The Trekker is my favorite. Perfect features for what I’m looking for. Also, extremely well done video! Your script is interesting, concise, and has good variety of descriptors. So many knife videos are repetitive and poorly scripted. Well done! Great delivery too!
@@davef3179 Trekker for the win! Cant live without my trekker!
@@oetzi022 did they discontinue the non-serrated version?? I can't find a plain edge Trekker anywhere. If so that's a real shame
i love the ranger grip 78. i use it for bushcrafting and camping all the time and its never let me down
I personally love my 2 Champs (one red and the other translucent green), A translucent blue Cybertool, and a translucent red TSA approved with a flashdrive on it. The last two I use at work all the time as well as one of the champs.
This guy is so calm and positive
The Cadet is my favorite. The nail file is a great tool, not just for nails but also as a substitute marlinspike for undoing knots. A bottle opener is also never out of place. Finally, the blade on the Cadet is a good size for doing significant cutting while still small enough to make a compact tool to slip in your pocket.
I bought my SAK back in the mid 90's. I didn't remember what it was called so I went to the official website and it turned out to be a red Spartan (the Tourist has the same 12 functions but is a bit smaller). Obviously the pen dried up a long time ago but everything else still works as if it was new. Awesome tool.
Favorite Swiss Army knife is the Equestrian close 2nd is the classic Sd
Great video! I've got a few of these and enjoyed your description of them. Really like the Compact. I honestly didn't know it had a pin until you mentioned it.
We had a pioneer version as standard knife in the army in the 80’s. I still have it
The Alox Farmer! I take it with me everywhere.
Yes man!!! I also EDC the S18. It has all the features I need, even more. I love it! But mine is Wenger, not Victorinox.
Edit: Now I EDC the Compact. I can't even compare it to the S18. It's way thinner but it has everything I need. The best SAK for EDC.
I also have a s18 which is red and black and a wenger version i bought it in switzerland and it’s my every day knife I bought a second one before wenger went out of business it’s in its box as new
My favorite would be the Pioneer X. Great selection of tools. The addition of the scissors makes it great for EDC.
Good video, excellent presentation. I have carried a Swiss Army Knife for many years. Now I MUST have the Farmer!
I really, really like the SwissChamp... Would've been nice to see it here
Great list though! Im new to swiss army knives so when i start my collection I'll be sure to get something from here!
Swiss champ king!!
Agreed. I carry one with me for years. (Black version) And it came in handy more times than I can count. Especially when traveling abroad.
such a profesional presentation👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I have many, both victorinox & Wenger. They are all first rate. Been carrying one for 50 years. Great vid👍!!
I have carried the Tinker for years and keep a spare for when I invariably loose one. Great job on your videos.
I have a drawer full of swiss knives and you are like Satan tempting me to buy a new one !
"Buying just one more knife won't be a big deal. It's just one. Go, buy it. Buy it..." 😈👽👻🧟🦇
Ronin T 😂 I know the feeling.. 😂 😎
Jesus died for you. What? He never said he stole anything?
Hahaha, same here, I have spent more time watching knife videos than watching porn for some weird reasons.
😂😂😂
My favorite knife is the Pioneer.
Great video, by the way :)
Just two small comments:
1. The Compact comes with a pin by default, but most people don't know that most of the 84 / 91 mm Cellidor knives come with scales that have the hole for the pin, it's just not included out of the box. But you can steal one from the sewing kit of your mom/wife etc. :)
2. Try to put the Compact's pen under the hook instead of the cork screw. It's much firmer.
miklospinter I’m torn between the Pioneer and Farmer.
For a little bit more you get an extra tool.
@@kylethedalek Both are great. Usually I prefer the Pioneer because it's lighter and I hardly ever need a saw. But when I go to places where I'm likely to need one, I take a Farmer. The Pioneer X is a very good knife as well, more useful in an urban environment. Most of the time, the scissors on my Classic are enough for me, but if I could only have one knife on me, it would be the X. For example, that's what I take when I travel.
miklospinter they should make all their knives with Alox scales.
But then you lose the options with plastic scales with the extra tools.
I have the Ranger Wood 55... a great swiss army knife for bushcraft. I love the wood grips, and it's been very handy for my farm hand jobs.
One of my favorites is the pioneerX. I love the tool set and is the same I carry the most.
Great vid! Makes me feel less crazy to see a review by someone as crazy for blades as me,gotta get a red alox
Thank you for this video. You set my mind about what to buy. I ordered the compact model today and I'll see how awesome it is up front.
I bought an s18 back before Victorinox aquired Wenger. It was my first knife with more than 2 or 3 tools and I use it every day. I really couldn't be more happy with it
My favorite is the nail clip. It is SO underrated and no one ever talks about it. I love mine and it comes in so handy every day.
@Ginsung yes. I don't necessarily use the clippers every day, but the scissors, toothpick, knife, and fingernail cleaner, yes. Everyday. And the nail clippers come in handy 2-4 times per week for hangnails, trimming fingernails, etc. VERY nice to have on you.
The Fieldmaster model should be included in any best of list for SAKs.
That's my number 1
Great presentation, excellent speaking speed and a great voice and great details on every knife! Saying hello from...yes...Switzerland. :-)
I'm a lady prepper, and I love Victorinox Swiss Arny knives.
My favourite is the super tinker and yes I would like a pioneer x.
My current favorite is the Fieldmaster. I really hope I win that Knife Center exclusive Pioneer X :-)
Victorinox knives have always been quality reliability and craftsmanship.
I own several saks now for my bushcraft and camping adventures.
My first was a swiss champ which is just a mind blowing tool, then i got the SD classic for the keychain, got a big tenger grip 79 for outdoors work and now my personal favorite is the handyman that replaced the swiss champ because it ditched some of the more lesser used tools and is easier to carry. Great video dude
Great Choice! I own a hiker, Trekker, Ranger Grip, Hunter wood and an Alox model from 2018!
The camper is one of my personal favourites shame it wasn’t here
TheThomasFan4472 same
All good stuff. I especially appreciated the little snippet about mounting the ballpoint pen under the corkscrew. You might want to add a similar tidbit on the use of the wire stripper. It took me literally years to discover the intended way to strip the plastic coating from a wire, using the notch and main blade.
I love My Victorinox. I have the "Officers" knife and a Tinker. If you don't have a Swiss Army/Victorinox knife, you should!
Hey im from Switzerland.
The knifes are just pocket knifes not army knifes.
The silver one is the only army knife but the video has good quality and I like it.
Schöns Video mir gfalts und es isch au professionell gmacht 👍🏻
Nicola, Victorinox can legally call all of its knives "Swiss Army Knives". Other Swiss companies, such as Swiza, cannot. Of course that this is widely used commercially, especially because the "Soldier" model is currently the only model issued to the Swiss Army. However, Victorinox makes a lot of money by selling the (true) story that its knives were once issued to the Swiss Army (and to this day, one model still is) that they can legally call all of them "Swiss Army Knives".
The Trekker is also very similar to the modern standard issue. My standard issue Soldier is from 2009 though. | Regardless, these have been popular in more Western markets (i.e., the US) for a long time (many decades) as "Swiss Army Knives." The actual company names have been much less well known, at least until more recently.
@@timsummers870 hé oui comme toutes publicités c est mensonges et vérités pour faire vendre....mais le vrai couteau militaire personne en veut car il a rien....1 lame 1 tournevis-ouvre-boite-decapsuleur et je sais j ai fais mon armée en suisse
@@WR3ND : That's true. Victorinox has marketed itself in North America as the makers of the "Swiss Army Knife", which seems to be more appealing to consumers. I'm sure that the more aficcionado ones know that SAK means Victorinox and Victorinox means SAK but perhaps the general public does not.
@@bird1962: Je suis d'accord. Je préfère également les modèles avec un plus grand nombre d'outils, c'est l'idée derrière un couteau suisse.
Its a good selection. I have several of these shown,and want to add the Pioneer X to my collection, it seems like a practical slim EDC knife. The problem with Swiss army knifes is always which one to buy, then once you get it, which one next etc. I always pair them with different functions for different occasions. There will always be a reason to get another. My favorite has to be the Midnight Manager which I find I carry the most and often and like to pair it with a Spartan not to overlap much on function.
