What customers say about "Key Specs"
Victorinox One-Hand Trekker Swiss Army Multi-Tool Pocket Knife
- The tool selection is well thought out, the quality is supreme, the steel is fantastic, and the price is staggeringly low.
- The next tools are pretty common Victorinox offerings, including cap lifter/large flat driver/wire stripper, can opener/small flat driver, 90 degree Philips driver, and reamer.
- The One-Hand Trekker is a very nice knife and multipurpose tool.
- It’s nice to have the extra tools. I have used some, like the bottle opener and the tweezers. I haven’t use most of the others like the wood saw and screw drivers, but it’s nice to have them.
- I wanted a one tool option with a one handed open blade and other tools as well. I got this model with a full straight edge.
Victorinox Forester Swiss Army Knife (Black)
- The saw is very useful for cleaning deck board gaps and will cut thru small PVC or ABS pipes in seconds.
- This has the perfect combination of utilities for camping, the wine opener, screw drivers, and the saw.
- This model has the tweezers - handy for slivers, a bottle opener and screwdrivers.
- Excellent product. Everything you need without too many bells and whistles.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Victorinox One-Hand Trekker Swiss Army Multi-Tool Pocket Knife
- The trekker is legal size length for pocket carry in my state and that was one of the reasons I chose this model for everyday carry.
- The length of the blade is about 3 inches, so it's a bit longer than most other designs of Swiss Army Knives.
- The length makes it easy to cut food. Very satisfied!
- Nice length on the locking blade,two screw drivers,saw,bottle opener,and tooth pick.............everything a man needs for work,play,or leisure.
- My only realy complaint about the knive is the strange serrations on the main blade, with only a short length of plain edge near the handle.
Victorinox Forester Swiss Army Knife (Black)
- I always have it in my pocket as a general tool and use it every day.
- This one is slightly larger, so might not work for you as a “pocket knife “. But I am farm raised and a pocket knife, first and foremost is a tool.
- It's Swiss Army quality with the basics of everyday life without excessive size and weight. The perfect EDC pocket knife.
- I like the larger size; it feels more secure in my hand, and I particularly like the locking main blade - it's not going to close until I want it to.

What customers say about "Features"
Victorinox One-Hand Trekker Swiss Army Multi-Tool Pocket Knife
- The blade locks, which isn't very important to me however some people find that to be a must.
- I like that it has a locking main blade, which is crucial for any sort of knife. The liner lock feels quite sturdy.
- The grip is slippery; most of my other EDCs are rougher and easy to hold.
- Great one handed opening option. Locks secure. Hair busting sharp right out the box.
- No pocket clip. I wear most of my EDCs inside my pocket but clipped to my pocket.
Victorinox Forester Swiss Army Knife (Black)
- This is a wonderful knife. The locked blade is very secure and easily retracted.
- This is one Amazing pocket tool. Love it. Smooth blade for easy sharpening. Perfect.
- The black handle has recently been hard to find. I enjoy the straight edge of the blade as opposed to the knifes with serrated edges.
- A beautifully crafted knife with all the essentials I'm every likely to need, has a reassuring weight in the hand, the main blade takes and holds a keen edge when carefully honed on a wet stone . With its black handle, an iconic male possession.
