Victorinox Tinker Swiss Army Knife, 12 Function Swiss Made Pocket Knife with 2 Blades (Large and Small), Screwdriver and Wire Stripper - Sapphire

One week review of my Tinker as a new EDC. Foremost, VICTORINOX makes so many wonderful tools that analysis can become paralysis. My typical daily activities consist of, small projects around the house, opening way too many AMAZON boxes (😀) shooting range, saltwater surf fishing, bicycle riding and the fitness trail at the local park. So my goal was to find a knife that suited those situations and after way too much research I settled on the Tinker. Aesthetically the Sapphire Scales (while non traditional) are opaque and pleasing to the eye. The carry weight is surprisingly light, the Tinker’s size is ergonomically practical, the stainless blades and tools are of high quality, edges are sharp, the ‘Walk and Talk’ of the implements is what I would expect from VICTORINOX. The tools are easy to use and functional. Overall, the Tinker is an excellent choice for my lifestyle. Value for the money is so subjective but considering the quality and utility of the Tinker how can you go wrong? Note in the photograph that the smaller SD was a gift, inspiration for my Tinker and attached to my SUV FOB key chain. While the Tinker is on my ‘outdoor’ key chain. The Orange device is a whistle and the safety pin keeps my keys secure inside my pocket while active. Regrets or second guesses: do I miss the Scissors and the file? Well, I shouldn’t be picking my nails in public and both Tinker blades can do most tasks that a Scissor can handle. But… Lastly, there is a spot for a straight pin inside the Scale behind the Phillips Screwdriver so I ordered a few pins. As well as, the pen shaped sharpener, color coded tweezers and color coded toothpicks for both the Tinker and SD in the photos. Great product and highly recommended. But be careful not to fall into the 🐇 🕳️ that is VICTORINOX- just one more knife! Update: Just completed my first bushcraft project (Slingshot) with the Tinker using the small blade and awl. Full disclosure, used a LEATHERMAN saw to cut the large branches, so maybe a different knife choice would have been better? Working on the larger Slingshot later on. ☮️

Great every day carry knife. Thin size makes it easy to throw in your pocket. Sharp blades and extra accessories. Tweezers work surprisingly well.

Was not expecting to be this huge or normal size because I have a smaller one with less tools but the quality seems great. It looks like it will last for a long time

I have always carried a scout knife. I guess I started carrying one in grade school as a Cub Scout. Well, I lost it. I really liked the features, especially the Phillips screwdriver. Well, I purchased this one as a substitute. I don't care about the way the Phillips blade opens to the side instead of the end, but it is a #2 blade instead of a #1 blade. That is an a distinct advantage.

Razor-sharp blades, easy to open, pretty color. Everything works well. I used to carry a Leatherman but this is SO MUCH LIGHTER to carry around and has the tools I used most often. I got one for the car, and one for my purse. I'm back because I'm getting some to give as stocking stuffers.

My favorite pocket knife.

A very good product. Will be carried and used.

This knife is the perfect size for a first time cubscout. Pretty blue color, and has many functions.

Muy práctica y de buena calidad para uso diario

Esta marca es muy buena y sus navajas excelentes

Qué se puede decir que no sea obvio? Buen filo, se nota la calidad, útil, bonita. El único pero es que podría ser más barata... :D

Incredible value and a great all around knife for everyday. I usually prefer the Alox models but wanted to give this configuration a try, and I was not disappointed. For the money these knives are always my recommendation. Victorinox does it right! Next for me will be a Victorinox Alox Pioneer X!

Amazing little multi tool superb quality bang for your buck I got it razor sharp with no flaws cut myself good the first few days.
