I had always carried the familiar red handled Swiss Army knives but some years ago, my brother Tom recommended these. I finally decided to get one. At the time, it was the issue Swiss Army knife. It’s simple, big with strong blades (but not too big for ordinary pocket carrying)and, with only 4 blades, it’s thin enough to carry around but thick enough to make it comfortable when using the knife blade. The large screwdriver blade stays in position when it’s only moved halfway towards being fully opened, a surprisingly useful feature which lets you put a screwdriver into some tight spaces. The awl is a truly serious tool, long and strong enough for the thickest leather. The small screwdriver/bottle opener/wire stripper blade will substitute as a phillips screwdriver and is probably the best can opener on any knife. The knife blade is larger than the red handled knives. The stainless steel blade sharpens more easily than any other stainless steel blade found on non-Swiss army knives but will hold an edge quite well.
This knife doesn’t have magnifying glasses, ballpoint pens,or other gadgets on it but it will do everything you really need it for and will stand up to a lot of use and occasional abuse. It’s a great bargain for a knife.

This is an excellent Swiss Army knife. Just the right size and weight. Very nice large blade. I especially like the lanyard ring for attaching it to my fishing vest.

The same knife issued to Swiss military. Not bulky in your pocket. Top quality materials and construction.

Great knife. It didn’t cost too much. Comes in handy when you want to quickly open your online packages.

The pioneer offers the most useful tools in a compact, sturdy package that is great for EDC. If it had the tweezers and toothpick too, I would say that it was perfect. As it is, I just carry this in my pocket and keep a 58mm SAK on my keychain, which has the tweezers and toothpick. The awl on this tool is far superior to the awl on the SAK’s with plastic handles. For the money this tool is very tough to beat.
