About Swiss Army Knives
In 1884, Swiss cutler Karl Elsener set up shop in Ibach-Schwyz, installing a waterwheel in Tobelbach Brook to run his grinding and polishing machines. Thus began what would become the international brand name Victorinox, a combination of Victoria, for Elsener's mother, and "inox," or stainless steel. Today, Victorinox produces watches, luggage, clothing, and, famously, Swiss Army Knives. The forerunner of that name dates to 1897, when Elsener patented the Swiss Officer's and Sports Knife he supplied to the Swiss Army. Following World War II, American servicemen and women shopping in PX stores shortened the name to Swiss Army Knife, which lives on in English-speaking countries around the world and has become a metaphor or versatility.
Sports reviews of Victorinox Swiss Army Ranger Pocket Knife
Customer Review: The Best pocket Knife in the world
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I Have been carrying a pocket Knife/Multi tool since the scouts. I can't even fathom how often I use them. The Victorinox Ranger is a little large for just a pants pocket although I do carry in my pocket,It has every tool you want. I also have a large Zermit pouch to carry on my belt when I remember to put it on. You can not go wrong with a Swiss Army knife. And this is my favorite Model so far. I dare you to find better prices for Victorinox items outside of Amazon. Price = awesome, knife= awesome.Customer Review: Great knife

It's a Swiss Army Knife, what can you really say that hasn't been said before... They are incredibly durable, the blades hold an edge well and you can buy a model to suit your own needs. I gave my old one to my nephew last fall, the knife is older than him (and looks it) but everything works. This time I chose the Ranger because I like having the wood saw, metal file, and scissors available. Though I haven't used it yet - the multipurpose hook looks promising as well.Customer Review: Typical Victorinox quality and construction
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
As usual, the unit is well built. I still have my old Explorer from almost 30 years ago and it's still working perfectly today and still sharp as well! THe scissors, blades,etc... are still perfect and it's been on many weeks in the wild over the years.
The Red Ranger is a great all around blade, happy to pick up a new on that will probably last longer than I will. Victorinox and Wenger are some of my favorite products for durability and quality.
Customer Review: This is the one to have...

...if like me and Mcgyver you find that a versatile tool always available can make a quick fix around the office, campground, on multi day river trips ,or whenever .People who know me are always calling on "McGyver" to come to their rescue with this tool!! I have had to just order a 3rd one due to loss or theft of previous ones because without this knife I almost feel naked and powerless!Have carried this model for countless years and use it practilly daily.Customer Review: As advetised

Bought this to replace one accidentally lost that my wife had given me 26 yrs ago. Used and abused that one and everything still worked fine. Replaced a few scissors springs over the years. You can't beat these for functionality, I use all of the blades/functions and it is a really solid performer. Minimal maintenence and they last forever. If you carry a pocket knife, consider one of various models by Victorinox. They have one for almost any need.
